Indonesia: Wham! Bam! Islam!Muslim superheroes come to Jakar

The comic features characters with super powers based on the concept of Allah's 99 attributes, including wisdom and generosity, as taught in the Koran. Its creator, Naif al-Mutawa, is a 36-year-old from Kuwait who was educated in the United States and who, as a boy, devoured Marvel comics and the Hardy Boys mysteries.

Naif al-Mutawa speaks to a group of students.

Reporter Isaac Solotaroff followed al-Mutawa as he marketed his comics throughout the Middle East, hoping to spread a moderate, modern image of Islam to the world. In this update, Solotaroff catches up with al-Mutawa in Jakarta, Indonesia, where the comic creator is trying to sell his work to the largest Islamic country in the world, a country that accounts for one in six of all Muslims worldwide.

Wow! The comic's creator Dr. Naif Al-Mutawa pwned that woman who complained about the women wearing tight clothing.

He's wise

What the hell are they trying to do??

I don't like the fact that they are using Allah's names in such things.

We are not allowed to call people with his names, not characters in comic !

In another way, it is like creating 99 Gods, we will have same as the Greek mythology.

It's different with islam. All you have to do is say, "In the name of Allah" and you're clear.

Islam is nothing more than a legitimized cult. It's a mishmash of beliefs and superstitions from that whole region and it only served as a money making machine for Mohamed.

Just the fact that a nonbeliever must either convert, pay money or die says everything about this death cult.

maybe Islam would be great if you got reed of the fuckin Arabs
