Team: X-Men
Range: 8 /
Points: 89

This Magneto is quite decent. Stay away from close combat with him and carry or TK figs into battle and you have a solid X-Men here. His AV leaves a bit to be desired here but that is something you can deal with on the Exp version. Overall good fig. Comic Accuracy is right on.

Very comic accurate. If you read Uncanny X-Men #202-212 (when he was leading the team), he really didn't do much. He wasn't even in half of the issues, and when he was, he was just a team leader. He used his magnetism powers a few times (hence the TK), but really wasn't much of a combatant. He left most of the fighting to his X-Men. Obviously his AV is low (especially towards the end) for today's standards. If you can keep him at the top of his dial he is a decent ranged attacker. His main purpose will be the TK to fling someone like Colossus into battle. 89 points is a little pricey for sure, but he's good for thematic teams.

Inspiring Command + Cuckoos = WIN
