Is it halaal? Is it haraam? No, it's Superman!

Or should that Superimam?

Anyway, all this is abut a new 'Muslim Comic', released in America called 'The 99', with each superhero having powers inspired by the 99 Names of Allah (swt), by Naif al-Mutawa.

What do you think? (click the image to see a full gallery of them)

If you are unsure on the official Revival opinion on superheroes, please read these:

I wonder what "superpower" the characters inspired by the names of mercy/forgiveness will have.

A word of note - note sure if this is the same series or a different one, but you caqn download a free copy of The99 - Origins by .

I would assume the one announced now is a new version of it that has been Americafied and not the same one I linked to?

This isnt actually a new comic.

Back in BLACK

just think of some smug student that you work with and want to punch in the face?

(not saying the Godly "all knowing" is like that, but some people can be.)

True. What is new though is the collaboration with the "Justice League of America"/whatever Comics.

@ Seraphim - do you think they felt the competition you were creating was a little too hot for them to handle alone?

and when do we get the next chapter?
