Let’s see Magneto do that. Of course Magneto could not. It’s flipping Annihilus.
For some sense of power scales, Annihilus took a direct cosmic energy blast from Galactus, which destroyed an entire fleet of thousands of spaceships and biological spaceship (bugs), a space armada so large it consumed and destroyed numerous planets. Annihilus took a direct blast from Galactus and lived through it, still standing and still fighting. It was a blast that would have cracked a planet in two, if it was aimed at one. That’s how tough Annihilus is. But Nova still did that to Annihilus.
Look, writers are going to write what they are going to write, but it is clearly shown in Marvel continuity that Nova is on par with or stronger than a being who can take a real blast from Galactus. Nova was the sole survivor of a planet destroying Annihilation wave, too. This is a guy who is at least as powerful as one of Galactus’ heralds, perhaps Galactus himself. And you think Magneto can beat him? Poppycock. Light speed, energy absorption, an entire planet’s worth of cosmic and computing power at his disposal (the Nova force), and control of gravity which is the most pervasive force in the universe. This ain’t your daddy’s Rich Rider anymore. Nova’s all grown up now.

Let’s talk about mutants and their relations who could beat Nova:
- Phoenix.
- Vulcan, in a fair fight.
- Franklin Richards, before the retcon.
- Maybe Wanda, before the retcon.
- Proteus as originally portrayed. (Why they’ve portrayed him so weakly ever since his first appearance confounds me.)
- Legion.
- Apocalypse himself would be a good fight. He could certainly go head to head with him.
That’s off the top of my head. Magneto? No.
Yeah Nova is crazy powerful. And even with all his power magneto is still like 90
Just so to be clear....
Whenever i see thise sort of discussion about "a can defeat b" I nowaday cringe and feel physically bad.
Because is fundamentally flawed discussion. Too much bias from one side and the other, biases justified in being fan of one and knowing very little of the other, as well as the inherent nature of action comics where overall power levels of characters VARY by decades(golden age heroes had very dffierent threshold of power than silver or bronze as example), by writer(most have a vague idea of what character can do9, by artist(sometimes a writer assume a feat fitting a certain power but artist depict it way over the top or too subtle), if the character is in his own titlte or guest in another(in batman title everyone is PWNED by freaking Joker but Batman...WTF?!?!?), if is supposed to be the main character of the story or just a secondary one(helllooooo Krylin), and also the development/deterioration of the plot and action over time(or in other words: In Fast and the Furios we start as regular car stunts, now we have carzan! And everyone is impactproof).
Power Level means nothing if we don't agree/know where all characters are in term of power. Is Rick still as powerfull as when he kicked annihilus bowels? Is Magneto still able to merge with planetary magnetic field? Do Nova powers protect them form magnetism considering it does protect them fro any ill effect of OPEN SPACE? who know.
So deal that depending on the moment Magneto can be taken down by a wooden gun. And Nova can get defeated by a sloppy spiderman clone. And the next time you see them the juggle cities and fights Hyperion, blue marvel and hulk at same time.
superhero comics are like that
Storm not only stood up to silver surfer but she hurt him in ff so i dont see why magneto cant
I mean they must have iron in their body. I hate battles but it seems people really sleep on mutants. Even some of the lesser mutants like emplate could do serious damage by making silver surfer attack everybody but mutants and them hurt himself. Or he could simply make him feel like he wants nothing else but to lose

I dont know much about nova but does he have his own power or like gl its from an item? If its an item you could have a teleporter teleport it away or a reality warper turn it into something else. And if he has a system in his body similar to humans any number of mutants could do a number on him. Windancer taking all the air out his body, iceman freezing him inside.
