An Indonesian
artist for
Marvel snuck in several
political and religious
references into a recent
X-Men Gold issue — and people **ticed.
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, **t bigotry and hatred@Marvel needs to remove Ardian Syaf from X-Men ASAP.
