    As I said, it's inspired by religion. But that's it. It's celebrated in early december, the songs have nothing to do with religion, it's not something that's only celebrated by religious people, etc.

    Just like the Zwarte Pieten are blatantly racist, but the celebration isn't bound up in that either.

    When Joseph Ratzinger became Pope, legend has it he was torn between Pope Benedict XVI or Pope Magneto I, until someone pointed out that, as a former (admittedly unenthusiastic) member of the Hitler Youth, the latter wasn't really appropriate...
    ((As an on again, off again more or less lapsed Catholic, I reserve the right to make such jokes, much the same as how black people can use the word 'n****r' without it being racist, but I don't much care for those who never were Catholics dissing the Pope. Odd, that...))
    For much the same reason, a former Jew and occasional would-be world conqueror would not be suitable as Sinterklaas. Even when he was all Christmas sweaters and attending school dances. As a result, Kurt might do as Sinterklaas, using an image inducer. At a push.

    I've chosen Magik as the figurehead for my Saturnalia celebrations, personally.

    It can't be magneto because a Jewish Holocaust survivor would probably never have a black slave... er attendant... since the moment the Holocaust survivor rides the slave er attendant hard you know a nazi comparison would be made.


    Depending on the side of the schism, you would have either:

    Cyclops (Prodigy as Black Pete) or Wolverine (Idie or Storm as black Pete) as SinterKlaas.

    The Avenger's would probably have Captain America as Sinterklaas with Luke Cage as black pete (Falcon is disqualified since he is worthless).

    A friend was telling me about this the other week.

    I'm gonna have to go with Magneto. Although Legion could certainly get it all done.
    Avengers Arena is one of the best books in the shops right now, it's seriously amazing.

    Show Teddy some love!

    Sinterklaas is the original thing people changed into Santaclaus.
