Magneto is one of the most powerful mutants in Marvel Comics and the most reoccurring villain, as well as one of the most powerful, X-men foes. He was the first X-men villain and is still and vicious enemy in Marvel. His first appearance was in 1963 and is still a popular villain.

Mutant is a human who’s cell have mutated to give that person superpowers or super weaknesses. Magnet apparently was one of the most powerful in the world. His power is the ability to control all magnet waves. Basically he has ability to control, move, and even reshape all the metal around him. He can lift metal object even if it weighs tons. He can even manipulate magnet fields in the air to create energy attacks and a force fields. He can also use the magnet fields to fly. These may seem like dorky power at first, but anything metal can become his weapon, anything metal. This includes Heroes weapons that are metal. In an area like a city, he is nearly invincible do to all the metal at his disposal. He is incredibly powerful and hard to defeat each time he shows up.

Magneto, or Erik Lehnsherr, was born before world war two. His parents were killed by the Nazis and his was sent to a concentration camp. After the war he got married and had a baby girl. But the village rose up to kill him and his family, succeeding in killing his daughter. Magneto mutant powers suddenly surfaced and he killed the whole mob.

Later on he meet Charles Xavier and the two became scholars and teachers together as well as friends. They debated on how the emerging mutants would effect the world. Xavier knew that that people would hate mutants but believed that he could teach mutants and mankind to get along peacefully. Magneto believed that there would be a war between the two races and that only one could stand as the master of the other. He believed that mutants needed to strike first. Xavier went on to start the X-men, a team of mutants that would protect mankind even though they were hated. Magneto started the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (no really, that’s what he named it, it was later just named the Brotherhood.) to wage war on mankind. The two were now no longer friends but the worst of enemies.

Magneto is as smart as he is powerful. He has a chess like mindset and can make the most masterful plan. He wants mutants to rule the world

I am happy to see Magneto made the list although I'm surprised he made it this high.
