Comics publisher Marvel has removed an issue of X-Men Gold from circulation – after readers complained about hidden ‘anti-Christian and anti-Jewish messages’.

Indonesian artist Ardian Syaf is said to have added hidden references to the Koran – and the number ‘212’, referring to Muslim protests against the Christian governor of Jakarta.

Syaf said, ‘This is a special memory for me. The number is a peace act, when a governor did blasphemy to our holy book.’

In another frame, Jewish character Kitty Pryde is seen in front of the word ‘Jew’, and next to a man wearing a T-shirt saying ‘51’ – believed to refer to a verse of the Koran which says, ‘O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.
