Magnus Family appreciation 2021

think if Pietro were a girl, fandom would not treat him being Magneto’s obviously least liked child as being a funny joke.

Yeah because abuse against men it’s funny or something.

Like yeah I laugh with some of the jokes but honestly I don’t feel like people really understand the relationship between those two, it’s beyond some funny lines to mock, Magneto has abused Pietro physically, psychologically and emotionally for years since their first interaction. Erik may love his children but that doesn’t matter if his actions are like that (I would include panels but I don’t have any in my phone).

I’ve seen people acting like Pietro’s resentment and distrust against his father is an exaggeration and I really believe that people is stuck with the most recent comics and doesn’t know a **** about Pietro. Magneto literally made him and his sister be his soldiers when they were teenagers, orphans teenagers that didn’t have another place to go, he abused them there knowing well they couldn’t leave! It’s canon the he made people attack them when they were sleeping as a way of “training” (they had orders to not harm them but the twins didn’t know that). He tried to use a teenager Wanda to seduce Namor and make him join his Brotherhood, Namor ended up rejecting him because he couldn’t stand someone being so shitty to his subordinates, specially a lady. Then when they left he kidnapped them and on panel physically abused Pietro, when we were in the arc that would reveal the twin’s parents to learn the truth he attacked Bova, the sweet cow lady that is a maternal figure for the Maximoff. After discovering the truth he didn’t become any better, taking Pietro to Genosha and then not giving a **** when he was in mortal danger because he was a “bad son”.

During the House of M storyline Pietro went to him and begged for his help because Wanda was in danger and Erik did nothing! He fought against the heros for his damn cause uncountable times but to save his daughter his was a pussy? And when Pietro and Wanda gave the son of a bitch the perfect world he wanted and the truth was exposed Erik killed his own son! Why? Because the heros were blaming him for this bullshit! Erik killed Pietro for his reputation?!

And this is only the 616 universe, don’t make me start with canon AUs (like Ultimates or Noir) or the cartoons, where mostly the abuse is repeated, specially in context where Mags is the one that raised him.

Also I have to be honest I don’t feel Magneto is that better with Wanda or Lorna, it’s just his bullshit with Pietro is quite constant and more explored and usually more physical and direct, but he has been pretty shitty with his daughters too.

Before Wanda was constantly possessed and made crazy she was the more mentally stronger of the two. She was able to part with her twin and move on and do stuff. Pietro had a much harder time of it.

He went straight from Wanda to being married to Crystal and starting a family because this guy cannot be alone.

That’s why he is always on teams even though he says he doesn’t want to be there.He wanted to be a hero, to have a family. Pietro grew up as a child orphan looking out for his sister and roaming the country trying to survive. So yes he is like a mother hen (crossed with an angry swan) to a few people he has this need inside to be wanted, to have someone to take care of, he wants to be needed.

The worst way to hurt Pietro is to abandon him.

House of M had this perfect panel that just speaks to his character.

Two trades that they are releasing this Fall/Winter as part of the Trial of Magneto tie in. The first is I, Magneto. It is an odd list of issues including the first Rogue issue.

Chris Claremont reunites with Dave Cockrum for another run of X-Men classics! They put the all-new, all-different mutants they made famous into an action-packed pressure cooker through Arcade, Dr. Doom and Garokk that blows its top with the return of Magneto in an anniversary extravaganza!

Then they are re-releasing Darker then Scarlet with a new trade.

The Witch is back! After months of trauma, the Scarlet Witch suffers a nervous breakdown — and descends into madness. Manipulated by Magneto, Wanda has turned on her teammates! Can the West Coast Avengers save her sanity — and themselves?

They look so good together. At least Polaris is easy to make by painting over the SW pop, until they officially make one.

And, that time is come.



Official Funko Polaris figure.

it's not odd that it is including the first Rogue issue at all. These are Epic collections. They are usually named after the most famous story in them, but contain much more than that. For example, Fate of the Phoenix includes Days of Future Past. The idea is that when the Epic Collections are some day done, that they'd have all the issues of a specific comic line including relevant tie in issues from other series.
