Well, Namor obviously doesn't (even though he is Santa in my Avatar). I think the same applies to Aquaman.

Thing is Jewish...I think Shadowcat is too.

Who else?

Who else? Well they might might still participate in the capitalistic rathers than the religous aspect of the holiday, due to their friends.

DarkCrawler

Eh. Superman somehow managed to convince every damn superhero to come to a "holiday" bash with CHRISTMAS trees and CHRISTMAS songs on the Watchtower.

Cap has tendency to do that too...

Wolfie
Ghost Rider?

Most of the original comic creators were jewish. I read a whole section devoted to it, it comes down to the history of story telling in the jewish community.

Kirby is, too. I believe.

Piedmon
The Black Panther. (These days, anyway, since his falling out with the Avengers.)

Mindship
Jack Kirby was Jewish. Ben Grimm is (or at least, originally was) his comic alter ego.

All/most characters celebrate (or seem to celebrate) xmas as a means of ensuring comic book sales, since most readers celebrate xmas, and this way they identify (consciously or otherwise) with the characters. It's why most TV and movie characters celebrate xmas.

For similar reasons (ie, ensuring sales), it's why you have few ethnic characters (since we live in a predominantly white society); and I imagine least popular these days would be a Muslim character. Too bad, because an Islamic superhero would make for an interesting character study in this age of terrorism.

Thought of a third one.... Sabra, Israel's Super Heroine....

DarkCrawler
And Dust of the New X-Men.

... then again me and my family are Buddhists, but we celebrate X-mas.

DarkCrawler
What about Magneto? Is he still Jewish, or some mutant-religion-fanatic?

Draco69
Magneto doesn't worship God anymore...he worships himself.



...that sounds kinda wrong.

Atom Smashers Jewish
