    And then Magneto and Wasp having a kinda/sorta fling? How random was that... Magneto, Alex Summers, create an AU and she ends up with the oddest mutants...

    I reckon the comicbook character Magneto being attracted to the comicbook character Wasp, was because she happens to be a brunette, like the comicbook character Magda..

    In orbit around Earth is Asteroid M, Magneto’s secret hideout. He is still recovering from injuries sustained in his last battle with the X-Men.
    While reviewing his computer records of his previous battles with the original team,
    he accidentally accesses an old data file on his late wife Magda.

    Seeing her face causes him to recall the painful memory of the death of their child at the hands of bigoted peasants,
    as well as how Magda fled from him in fear when he used his powers to avenge their daughter.
    He deletes the file so that he does not have to relive the memories again.

    As this post points out, Magneto has gotten along better with Lorna than he has with the Maximoffs.

    Oh goodness, I'd forgotten that Magneto's 'real name' was Magnus, back then, as opposed to Erik or Max or whatever-the-heck it is this week, to go with his pin-the-tail-on-the-ethnicity. (Is he Romani? Jewish? Mutant-American? All of the above?)

    He's Jewish.

    But then we also need to add Briar and Suzana and they are more like red heads than brunette imo

    Heīs german jewish born Max Einsenhardt according to his definitive origin in Magneto Testament but took the identity of Erik Magnus Lensherr, a romani, when he was looking for Magda after the death of their daughter. Thereīs a posibility he took the name Erik from his uncle Erich Einsenhardt. Given he also used to be a double agent he must have a lot of alias but those two names are the ones he uses the most.

    I'd like it if for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the MCU Erich Einsenhardt is the MCU Magneto's grandfather since I liked the Adreas and Andrea von Strucker Fenris being the great grand-father and great grand-aunt..

    I didn't see an option I prefer. I prefer them as they were created, as mutants, but haven't liked the Magneto connection from the get-go. It's one of those many things - like everybody in the continuity short of Galactus, having met Wolverine in some past, untold story - that shrinks the MU into a small, almost inbred community.

    I know.

    I only really like the Whizzer and Miss America as the twins parents, but they are both dead now and we never got any parent/child power usage.

    I didn't think that one made sense. Because they were American, and the twins were very much not. Which is likely why they changed it.

    Plus, the Whizzer is a pretty stupid code name.

    IIRC that was Roy Thomas that proposed that one. He was very much into linking the Golden Age heroes to current Marvel heroes. But then I guess he got that from Stan and Jack when they had Johnny finding an amnesiac Namor in a flop house in NYC's Bowery
