Occult symbolism in X-men

read a X-men comic today. Found out why nightrawler ws in that abandoned church, and how the hell he was a priest. I thought that he used to be a priest and then became mutant. Turns out that he was made a priest in a flase ceremony by some wierd organisation that wanted to throw down the church for not allowing women to be priests, and because some priest raped a nun and accused her of adultry, so the nun takes revange.
The particular story burst with occult symbolism, because of the references to the devil pope, this picture in the beggining which shows mutants crucified like Jesus,



and this panel, which you will not understand unless you are familiar with occult stuff. Because there is no reference to the dragon king after or before this panel. This appears just once. Once is enough...



like the code says, the story is being said all around you if you just look closely enough. That is the scary part...
