The Hood (Parker Robbins) is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artists Kyle Hotz and Eric Powell, the character first appeared in Hood #1 (July 2002). Robbins was originally a petty criminal. He defeated and robbed a Nisanti demon of its hood and boots, which granted him superhuman abilities such as levitation and invisibility. The Hood is a well-known figure in the New York City criminal underworld, in which he forms his own crime syndicate.

Anthony Ramos portrays the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Disney+ series Ironheart (2025).
