Throughout the decades, Magneto has been a man of many faces. Marvel’s Master of Magnetism has evolved from Charles Xavier’s and the X-Men’s greatest rival to a socially prominent anti-hero before he helped found Krakoa, a sovereign nation of mutants. As the identities, alliances, and even names of the man originally known as Max Eisenhardt changed over time, the context and intent of his historical actions in the face of his modern altruistic framing came into question. The character’s new self-titled limited series, Magneto, by J.M. DeMatteis, Todd Nuack, Rachelle Rosenberg and Travis Lanham seems excited to tackle those questions, celebrating Magneto’s 60th anniversary by re-framing his entire character.The latest comic to center on mutantkind’s most complicated figure, 2023’s Magneto miniseries rewrites its title character, starting with his first actions in Marvel Comics. While the story reconstructs almost everything Erik Lehnsherr has been as Magneto, who he was before goes explicitly untouched. Lehnsherr’s past as a Holocaust survivor is reverently placed on center stage in the new series, emphasizing how foundational this idea is to for Magneto’s identity. However, there’s more at stake here than the former leader of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants’ character, it extends to the real people who survived the Holocaust. In 2023, nearly 85 years after the start of World War II, it’s also an origin Marvel should work ferociously to keep intact, no matter how many years or brand-wide reboots pass.As Magneto’s powers twist metal, his new series posits the idea that he also used them to twist himself. Magneto features Lehnsherr leading a new team of X-Men, attempting to imbue them with the altruistic ideals necessary to build the future Charles Xavier sought. The students, however, are skeptical of their leader, unable to reconcile his past atrocities with who he presently claims to be. Their doubts inspire Magneto to reflect on who he was and what motivated his former terroristic lifestyle. A violent encounter with Irae, Queen of Wrath, forces him to do that a bit more literally when she invades his mind. Magneto looks at how and why the man known as Magnus became a supervillain, injecting a compelling new context into his history.RELATED: The X-Men’s Krakoa Era Proves Magneto Was Right All AlongRELATED: X-Men Reveal What If Jean Grey Became Like Magneto – And it’s Horrifying
