Marvel will punish 'X-men' artist who snuck political references into the latest comic

TwitterFacebook

An Indonesian artist for Marvel snuck in several political and religious references into a recent X-Men Gold issue — and people noticed.

Ardian Syaf, who had previously worked on Batgirl and Superman/Batman titles for Marvel, had put in references to an ongoing political conflict in Indonesia.

The references, which appeared in the first issue of X-Men Gold released last week, were quickly spotted by Indonesian readers. Many voiced their anger against Syaf.

The X-Men have always stood for inclusiveness and diversity, not bigotry and hatred@Marvel needs to remove Ardian Syaf from X-Men ASAP.
