The creator of a bestselling comic designed to show the world the tolerant and peaceful face of Islam has written an open letter to his young sons explaining how the project grew out of 9/11.

In the letter, written for the BBC News website, Kuwaiti psychologist Dr Naif al Mutawa, says his superheroes - inspired by the Koran and known as THE 99 - were designed to "take back Islam" from militants who had taken it hostage.

The comics, which now sell about one million copies a month in several languages, are soon to be made into an animated film by Dutch media company Endemol.

Early last year, Forbes magazine announced THE 99 were one of the 20 top pop culture trends sweeping the world.

Ok, the superdude on the right is badass, and the shit-kickin' chick on the left is hot, but what's up with the big toe kid?

I mean, dayam!

In all seriousness though, to "take back Islam" from militants seems like a worthy goal, don't 'cha think?

I think the guy's name is toe-toe.

Good idea, sure, get the next generation hooked on something out of reality so they will forget about practicing war. I bet the bad guys switch from virgin rewards to fancy costumes.

You've got a point: the bad guys always seem to have better costumers.

The flick should be made in Japanese anime style, so Kacen can watch it.

There's no pit deeper than the trap of the terminally pissed.

Ok its rather alarming that I can see through all that wrongness and recognise the costume of Wonder Woman. Too much Justice League, methinks.....
