Fave villain right after dr doom. But second to doom is no spot to be ashamed of.

[GhettoGypsy]

very true!

[M3LL090]

Magneto is not a villian ... he has a dream of unity in the mutant culture and would see his dream come true no matter what... Magneto is a dreamer and a hero for that ... 100 thumbs up if you agree

[EnglishGentleman13]

He's better than Dr.Doom

Magneto is technically supposed to be the greatest villain in the Marvel Multiverse, excluding those guys like Mephisto and other evil 'beings' like Galactus.

@Unkehz0r No he wouldn't. If you believe that, then you don't know Magneto very well.

Yes, Magneto would kill. But he's not a mass murderer type of villian, someone who will kill just for the hell of it. And you're right, Batman would not kill anybody. But there are other examples of "dark heroes" who have killed people and would do it again if they found it necessary, or even if they're just pissed off enough.

Wolverine, anyone?

[Unkehz0r]

@PrinceSephiroth Batman never murdered anyone. ;p Thats the thing about him. Magneto would kill a dozen non-mutants simply because they're not mutants.

@jsmooov88 In a way he wasn't a villain

I can't send you the message until you accept a friend invite because you have 'friend lock' turned on and it won't let me send messages or leave comments.

Also, the assortment of links and comments I have gathered is too large of a message for here.

[PrinceSephiroth]

Magneto's past served to teach him well of the possibilities of the future (which, as many episodes on television and in comics show, he was quite right about).

A person's past can make them a dark fighter for justics as well as a villian. You're quick to bring up the Hitler and the Joker, but what about Batman? He went through hell, and it made him dark and somewhat ruthless. He also breaks the law many MANY times in his pursuit of justice. And yet... he's a hero.

Point made.

[PrinceSephiroth]

As for Magneto "destroying buildings" and whatnot, should I go through the internet and my comic book collection and show you all the times Wolvering has attacked a government building and/or almost killed someone (or succeeded in killing someone). Or the many times Cyclops blew a hole through a brick wall of someone else's property while fighting off the polise/any govt. agent they're fighting against?

Yeah, as Wolverine would say, 'nuff said.

[PrinceSephiroth]

Actually, there is no problem with my theory at all.

Magneto wants freedom for mutantkind. That's just as noble, if not more so, than wanting peace. And you seem not to understand (much like Xavier himself) that peace without freedom is false. A slave can live in peace with his master. So, as long as there's peace, is it okay for one to be enslaved?

Really, it's simple. So simple.
