Marvel Comics has officially terminated the contract of Ardian Syaf, "effectively immediately." The termination follows controversy surrounding Syaf's artwork in X-Men Gold #1.

Syaf's art will still be featured in X-Men Gold #2 and X-Men Gold #3, as it is too late to alter these upcoming issues of the bi-weekly series. RB Silva will provide art for X-Men Gold #4, which was originally solicited as being drawn by Syaf. Silva will also illustrate X-Men Gold #5 and #6. Ken Lashley will draw X-Men Gold #7-9.

Marvel has also stated that they will announce a replacement for Syaf as X-Men Gold's lead artist in the near future.

X-MEN GOLD Artist Ardian Syaf: 'My Career Is Over'
http://www.newsarama.com/33977-x-men-gold-artist-ardian-syaf-my-career-is-over.html
Artist Adrian Syaf has returned to social media following a brief hiatus after his hidden political and religious messages in this month's X-Men: Gold #1 were exposed. In a post on his Facebook page, the Indonesian artist has said "my career is over now."

Here is his statement:

Hello, World...

My career is over now.
It's the consequence what I did, and I take it.
Please no more mockery, debat, no more hate. I hope all in peace.

In this last chance, I want to tell you the true meaning of the numbers, 212 and QS 5:51.

It is number of JUSTICE. It is number of LOVE. My love to Holy Qur'an...my love to the last prophet, the Messenger...my love to ALLAH, The One God.

My apologize for all the noise. Good bye, May God bless you all. I love all of you.

-Ardian Syaf-


Syaf doesn't explain if his statement of his career being "over now" is of his own personal choice or through some third-party informing him so. Marvel had previously released a statement saying that "disciplinary action" would be taken with Syaf, but the extent of it was not revealed. Syaf is solicited to draw X-Men Gold #2 through #4, and the publisher has not announced any changes to those plans as of yet.

Syaf had previously worked for Dynamite Entertainment, Dabel Bros., Panini, and DC Comics - the latter of which he had an exclusive with from 2009 to 2016.



"I put bigoted coded messages in a comicbook renowned for being about acceptance and tolerance, how did it all go wrong?!"

and yes this is real the artist has even confirmed it on twitter

Ardian Syaf is an Indonesian comic book artist that works for several American comic publishers. He's deliberately inserting subliminal messages about conservative Islamic political movement in 2017 Jakarta Election in Marvel's comics. One of the messages written is "QS 5:51". It is a Quranic verse which states that "Muslims should not take the Jews and Christians as their allies/friends". Indonesian translation of the verse states that "Muslims should not appoint the Jews and Christians as their leader", thus the Quranic verse is being used by Islamists to prevent the reelection of a Christian governor of Jakarta. Another subliminal message is "212". It refers to the mass protest by Islamists in Jakarta that took place on December 2nd, 2016. Hence the "212". The protesters demanded the prosecution of the Christian Governor for allegedly committing "blasphemy" towards the Quran.

Here are some articles in English that explain about anti non-Muslim bigotry and discrimination by Islamists against non-Muslim candidate in 2017 Jakarta Election:

-http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/12/indonesians-rally-governor-purnama-blasphemy-161202055726769.html

-http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2016/12/03/rally-ends-on-cautious-note.html

Would Marvel be okay with anti-Christian and anti-Semitic messages put in their comics by Muslim conservative?


the issue came out 2 days ago and it seems to have flown over the editor's head, I wonder what Marvel's reaction will be. especially considering this goes against everything the X-Men stand for

uhhh...you understand Goku could do the same if he was focused and used his chi right? He's taken bullets on the chin as a child when he's fighting seriously

only reason Krillin got scratched by that bullet was because he wasn't putting out any energy

post link to him doing this in super?

far as I know, he's been shot and hurt twice, once fatally while in his most powerful form

he's blocked energy blasts that can destroy mountains when he's focused

the outrage over him getting wounded by that laser is moronic, Goku isn't fucking Superman and if he isn't ready even Krilling throwing a rock at his head will hurt him

Just gonna point out a single solar system is a miniscule portion of a galaxy.


oh right I derped

so cell could only destroy like 8 planets and only 1 planet with life on it? what is even the point lol, just blow up the earth the rest barren lifeless orbs

I mean, Cell is tons stronger than DBS goku.

Goku gets hurt if he gets shot, Cell tanked everything the military threw at him

uhhh...you understand Goku could do the same if he was focused and used his chi right? He's taken bullets on the chin as a child when he's fighting seriously

yeah I'm sure Toriyama regrets that line, he also was going to end the series after that fight

that's like that dumb line in the Broly movie where they say he destroyed a Galaxy

I don't get how someone who isn't brain dead thinks Super is decent

these are people who almost get their planet blown up every year and they pal around with cosmic beings daily

why would this surprise or scare them

Super is absolute garbage and leagues below GT

not even joking

Is this really true? I was a huge fan of Z and GT and I haven't come around to trying out Super yet. Should I not bother?

As a huge DBZ fan, it's my honest opinion.

Super just has nothing going for it imo. Not the story, not the lore, not the fights and animation, just nothing. I know dbz had some asspulls throughout the story but they are NOTHING compared to what super does. Nothing makes sense, every character is butchered beyond recognition and to top it all off the animation quality and fight choreography is dogshit.

I stopped watching near the start of the current tournament.


This is the most absolute shit I've read on CE for a long while. Seriously, I don't even know how to reply to this.

yeah @evoL_nekorB I would highly disagree with Link HT as well, Dragonball Super was only below average during the first arc and continuing into parts of the Golden Frieza arc but that's because they were rushed animation wise

BUT you have 2 great movies you can watch instead, after GF they got a bigger workforce and the show has been amazing the Zamasu arc is one of the best sagas in the entire series imo. Plus the Japanese BluRay/English dub release has gone and touched up some animation so that's no longer a problem either

There's a guy on twitter who edited of all the best scenes/animations from the Frieza movie and retouched Frieza arc and combined it into a great fan edit as well

- Krillin can beat adult Gohan in a fight


Explanation? Is this something in DB Super or something? I haven't seen any episodes of that yet.


basically Krillin is more clever than Gohan due to experience.

this, Gohan is such a jobber even a lowly human can get the upperhand
