An islamist comic book artist for Marvel Comics decided to include islamist and anti-Jewish imagery.

Islamist and Anti-Semitic References Were Hidden in an X-Men Comic Book by the Artist

Indonesian artist Ardian Syaf says he included in X-Men Gold #1 hidden references to the election of the governor of Indonesia's capital Jakarta....

...In one scene in the book, Ardian says he drew the character Colossus with a T-shirt that says “QS 5:51” — a reference to a Quranic verse that, according to fundamentalist interpretations, prohibits Muslims from electing a Christian or Jewish leader.
In another scene, the Jewish character Kitty Pryde is also drawn together with a sign reading "Jewelry," her head next to the part of the sign that reads "Jew." In the same scene, the number "51" appears, referring to a massive Islamist anti-Ahok demonstration that took place in Jakarta on Dec. 12.

Marvel Comics says it is taking "disciplinary action" against one of its artists, who inserted Islamist and antisemitic references into a comic book, according to the comic news website comicbook.com

"Disciplinary action" should have including the loss of this guy's job. What if some comic artist inserted nazi or racism supporting images? Wouldn't that be grounds for dismissal?

Holy ★■◆●.

People are getting bent out of shape over a comic book. A ★■◆●ing COMIC BOOK.

And now the crybullies are doing their usual wah dance to get their own way.

What's next? Heavy metal music being the tool of the devil? The stupidity with this is so far off the charts, they have to make completely new ones just to measure it.

Well, according to Marvel, it was NOT sanctioned and was apparently secretly inserted into the comic strip by the artist. Take a look at the 2 panels in question on the forum below. The OP explains what was surreptitiously inserted and what the symbols mean.

Ferno, if you want to read a little history, comic books became a favorite target of repression by the so-called morality police in the 1940's and 50's when their popularity soared among kids.

I know all about the morality police going after comics.

This is just another version of that, but instead of religious people; it's a bunch of crybullies.
