GEEK CULTURE NOTE #2

For those who thought the X-Men 3: The Last Stand ex-gay parallel was handled too subtly... I bring you "Proposition X," one of the recurring plots in the Uncanny X-Men comic. In this comic, the X-Men live in California, where anti-mutant forces have introduced a ballot proposition which would require all mutants to be sterilized.

Somehow, I suspect we will not be seeing the Marvel Universe's version of the Knights of Columbus in this storyline; nor its black churches. That might muddle the message.
