    Default Magneto (comics) vs. Magneto (movies)

    616 vs the Fox movies.

    Movie Magneto is operating at Age of Apocalypse levels.
    New York.

    BONUS: A 10 pound block of Adamantium is sitting between them. Pure tug of war challenge only. Who can pull it to their side first?

    Comics Magneto would shred the movie version to pieces. The man once created a wormhole with magnetism somehow, tossing Hercules around, taking on nuclear bombardment, and manipulating light.

    He's got his Apocalypse power up just as a reminder. 616 Mags def has way more esoteric uses to his abilities, but raw oomph might be close?

    comic mags was able to bring a giant speeding bullet carrying kitty pryde back to earth from several light years away.

    not to mention, his shields are damn powerful. i don't movie mags even denting them.

    Do you have any context on that bullet feat? I've seen the scan of Kitty phasing it. I mean the other stuff.

    Like, did he just flip it around? Or was it like "I will gently nudge this thing until it eventually makes a return orbit"? Was it actually light years?

    It took him extremely extended meditation and severely exhausted him to do, it should be noted. He didn't just I Dream of Jeannie head bop and make it happen, it was a prolonged effort.

    With that said, comics Magneto has EMP'd the planet. He's just in another place.

    So instead of shouting MAGNETS !!!! He quietly chanted magnets !!! for awhile ?

    I can dig it.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    yep. but it was still a bit beyond what movie mags can do.

    Ok. Context is good. Thanks.

    Are we super duper sure a planetary EMP is wildly beyond this?

    The Emp was basically "and now I EMP the planet". The thing in the movie was taking its time, is the difference.

    the issue with movie mags is that he needs to get pass comic mags' shields.

    also, didn't mags survive a glancing blow from galactus?

    "A glancing blow" from Galactus is like soooo hard to quantify.
