Friends, our moment in history has arrived. We all have felt the sting of human hatred, seen the disgust smolder in their eyes, we have groveled and hidden like beaten animals anxious for a crumb from a master. We have lived too long in darkness and fear. No more! Nature has made us superior. We are the living future of this mighty planet. This world is our world now!
―Magneto addressing the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.
To live among the stars, to rule jungle kingdoms, to guide entire nations, only to find oneself here. A self-loathing man might see this as deserved punishment. A vain man might compare this to the Christian Devil's fall from heaven. Me, I think the coffee's not terrible. I have been known by many names. Max Eisenhardt. Erik Lehnsherr. Magnus. Magneto. Each name marks its own sin. And one day I'll answer for those offenses. But not today. Only my actions... what I do in the name of all mutants... hold any real meaning.
―Magneto

Magneto is an anti-hero and major antagonist in the X-Men comics. He was once best friends with Professor X, but ended their friendship through the idea humans and mutants would be able to live together. He went on to become a member and leader of the Brotherhood of Evil.

Over the years, he became more of an anti-hero, even joining the team on several occasions.
