Embrace change we can believe in...Reptilian Alert?


I was running around surfing sites when I ran across this.
http://www.marvel.com/embracechange/main.html

I know it's a Marvel Comics thing. That's evident.
But it kinda rattled me for several reasons.

1. "Embrace Change"..."Change we can believe in. "
Sound familiar?

2. The site is about Marvel comics characters called Skrulls.
Skrulls are green-skinned reptilian humanoids with large pointed ears and corrugated chins, they were created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in 1962.
In the new Ultimate Marvel Universe they are known on Earth as the Chitauri.
(Later of course the "real" Skrulls showed up and didn't like being confused with the Chitauri, whom they call "terrorists").
Credo Mutwa, a Zulu shaman, claims that the Zulu people have known of a reptilian species called the Chitauli for centuries.
I'm pretty sure the Marvel writers grabbed a hold of that similarity to give their "myth" a basis in "reality".

3. The video kinda freaks me out and makes me wonder what a "real" disclosure commercial would look like.
The conspiracy nut in me immediately went " Oh my God! They're testing the waters to see how we'll react!" when I watched it.

Okay, I'm not saying that our Commander in Chief is a reptilian.
Or even a reptilian puppet.
And I'm not saying that Marvel Comics is a Reptilian propaganda front.
(Maybe Marvel is trying to warn us. After all, they are the home of Super Heroes....LOL)

But when coincidences like that pile up, I get interested.
Especially when I don't believe in coincidences.
