    but that's the joke with squirrel girl, she can beat anyone. if marvel had put her against magneto it would have ended the same as thanos with the actual fight skipped and magneto unconscious on the ground.

    Do you think Magneto is capable of lasting even a second in a fight with Thanos? Or Silver Surfer? Or Galactus? Or any of the abstracts? Is he capable of even seeing an abstract let alone communicating or fighting with them? Or something even worse? Does Magneto have the equivalent of an entire world’s worrh of psychic and cosmic energy at his disposal, like the the Council of Reeds’ Sol’s Anvil, but in the form of a single human? No? Magneto needs an atmosphere, demonstrably so. Nova doesn’t. Magneto isn’t capable of fighting or traveling at the speed of light or beyond. Nova is as fast as light. Nova is capable of interstellar travel, under his own power. Magneto can’t do that. Nova’s peers in power levels are Thor, the Supreme Intelligence, Beta Ray Bill, Gladiator, Ronin, Silver Surfer, any of Galactus’ heralds really, perhaps Galactus himself. Magneto has never shown himself to be capable of those levels of power. Nova can defeat Annihilus with his Cosmic Control Rod in a fist fight. Nova has defeated Thanos in a physical fight. Galactus has not even demonstrated that kind of strength, and Nova is only one of three or four or five characters in the entire Marvel Universe strong enough to stand up to him, and that includes characters such as Thor. So, sure, Hickman or whoever can write a Nova fight with Magneto however they choose. But Nova has previously been depicted at god-like levels of power. Nova operates at Phoenix-like levels. Magneto may be an “omega,” but he’s never, ever been shown to wield god-like power. It’s ridiculous to think Magneto would be anything but the equivalent of a piece of toilet paper to Nova. There’s “omega level,” and then there’s cosmic Marvel. Magneto’s an “omega.” But Nova is cosmic.

    So, Magneto is psychic now? Interesting. I always thought he is the master of magnetism, which is, you know, one of the four physical forces in the universe.

It's an ego boost...yes it's cringy and boderline racist but once you know where he came from it's not hard to imagine his pride in himself is this aggressive I mean he literally survived the Holocaust. What did Doom go through is he prosecuted for being born I don't think so he is hated for his actions.
    Also a very vast majority of mutants do not believe they are superior to humans charachters like storm, rouge, nightcrawler, colossus and the like all see themselves as equal but different to humans. This translated to most mutants, who just want to live in peace but human bigotry won't allow them.... Hence the need for the school hence magneto saying what he says hence asteroid M, hence genosha , hence the need for utopia, hence the need for limbo and now the need for krakoa arrako and the stars.
    I said Kirby drew Doom better than he drew Magneto. I stand by that. Look at Doom circa FF#87. Look at Magneto in X-Men#1. Which character looks better? The answer ain’t Magneto.

Magneto was starting the core of the entire planet whilst running around doing inspections and making sure everything was going on smoothly, he was spooning and compressing the core with a great and tremendous power. And it was all like nothing. So nova being what and what is irrelevant.... Who wins is who the writes wants to win.
    I’m not your “bruh.”

    Writers can write whatever Marvel editorial will tolerate. But there’s mutants or any superpowered character, and then there’s cosmic Marvel. The Hulk? Exactly. That’s the kind of character Nova has been shown to be the equivalent of, and Magneto just isn’t that powerful. Period.

    Magento literally compressed the core of an entire planet without any power amplifying and without breaking a sweat. You might of had a point previously but in Hickman's run Magneto more than lives up to his Omega status and would give Nova a run for his money.

    But yeah power level discussions are pointless lol

    To answer your question, no.

    Nova is one of only three Marvel characters based on Earth that I am aware of to go toe to toe physically with Thanos.
    Bruh I have no clue who Abnett or Lanning is so...... *shrugs* Physically Thanos ain't all that without the Gauntlet at least according to the MCU *shrugs*

    Facts.
    I like Magneto but Nova claps him.
    Power levels can be a mess but this is pretty straight forward.
    Also this is the grown up nova and not the kid.

    And there you have it. You’re not aware of Nova, and thus judging his power based on... I don’t know what you’re basing it on.

    BTW, while I’m hanging in there with Hickman, nothing he has done has been as good as Abnett & Lanning, IMO. I admit I’ve only read most of Hickman’s big runs, not really anything before FF. I still enjoyed his FF, it just wasn’t as good as Abnett & Lanning’s work with all of cosmic Marvel. That stuff they did with Guardians, et al, was top notch. They turned C- and D-listers into stars.

    So in conclusion Magneto is a mutant who's power level is literally "limitless" and Nova is a Cosmic level bad ass.
