As most Filipino marvel Fans were shocked (delighted?) of Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo being portrayed as a skrull in disguise (beside John Mc Cain) in Marvel Comic's Secret Invasion series.
Others in the page are Tom cruise, Paris Hilton, John Mc Mcain, Oprah Winfrey, Barack Obama and Her.
The Reason for this is that Leinil Yu, The Artist for the Secret invasion series is a Filipino.
There is another Filipino Tribute being shown in the Background. This is Francis Magalona's Clothing line or FMCC. This is a good tribute considering the Philippine Rapping legend is currently suffering from leukemia. Yu and The Master rapper are good friends.
In the news last night, Yu States that this was not in any way or form not intended to malign the president. But rather as a pun and a way to show more of our culture.
