Magneto

Magneto (Erik Magnus) is the Amalgam of DC's Doc Magnus and Marvel's Magneto.

History[]

Erik Magnus's metamutant powers manifested in his teens, making his brother Will Magnus hate and fear him. Assuming the identity of Magneto, Erik formed a team of fellow super-powered mutants known as the Brotherhood of Mutants. The rivalry between the Magnus brothers reached a fatal crossroads when Will's Sentinel robots murdered the members of the Brotherhood, except Magneto.

In their memory, Erik used his awesome magnetic might to create the Magnetic Men, a band of robots designed to fight for the mutant cause and against the Sentinels. Magneto also created the super-computer known as Cerebro in order to locate mutants and help them. A strong rivalry exists between Magneto and JLX leader Mister X.

Powers[]

Magneto has complete control over electromagnetic forces, allowing him to manipulate metallic matter, fire force blasts, disrupt electronic systems, create forcefields, and fly via magnetic levitation.
