Marvel have already come under fire from right wing conservatives for a recent issue of Captain America, in which Cap seemed to "undermine" the Tea Party group. Now these fana..excuse me, these fundamentalists are up in arms again becuase Idris Elba will portray the originally drawn white skinned Norse God Heimdel in the upcoming Thor Movie. This time the attacks come from the Council of Conservative Citizens who write..
“It’s not enough that Marvel attacks conservatives values, now mythological Gods must be re-invented with black skin, It seems that Marvel Studios believes that white people should have nothing that is unique to themselves.”
Marvel has taken their anti-white, radical campaign even further. They cast a black man as a Norse Deity.”
The Council, which insists
“the American people and government should remain European in their composition and character,” has now organized an online boycott of Thor and Marvel.
Elba has apparently dismissed this as complete rubbish, saying:
“Thor’s mythical, right? Thor has a hammer that flies to him when he clicks his fingers. That’s OK, but the color of my skin is wrong?”
Death And Taxes also say that the group has been up in arms over Marvel's
Black Panther series for sympathizing with independent South Africa.
