.....But They'll Leave The KKK and Extremist Militia Groups Alone
Magneto Confronts the Red Skull as the March to Axis Begins
Take an exclusive first look at David Yardin's cover to Magneto #11 and hear from editor Daniel Ketchum!
This October, Magneto confronts his past by taking on one of the most powerful villains in the Marvel Universe.
As previously reported, MAGNETO will be part of the March to Axis leading up to this fall's major Marvel event. Issue #11, on sale October 8, has the Master of Magnetism putting his mettle up against the Red Skull, more powerful than ever before.
"One of our inspirations for this MAGNETO series was the scene in [the 'X-Men: First Class' film] where Magneto was hunting down former Nazis," says editor Daniel Ketchum. "Well, there’s currently a very powerful villain with a Nazi past throwing the Marvel Universe into chaos…using the mutant brain of Magneto’s deceased best friend. So there was no way that Magneto wasn’t going to step up to challenge the Red Skull here."

Hey, the movie has Magneto chasing Nazis so, like everything else gets changed in comics continuity after a movie...Magneto goes after ex-Nazis.
Firstly, any ex-Nazis are going to be in their late 80s or 90s by now. In fact, if Magneto is chasing after Nazis because of his childhood experiences then he must also be in his 80s? WHY wasn't he doing this in the 1960s?
Oh, right. That was a pre-reboot Magneto before the next rebooted Magneto came along to be...rebooted. But, come on...has the derelict house of lack of ideas sunk this low?? And Xavier's Brain? Oh dear heavens they even rip-off 1950s B-movie plots.
Out of date. Out of ideas.
Here is one idea: a series in which Marvels heroes track down and smash the Ku Klux Klan and other organised American racist groups? Oh -how about the heroes start smashing heavily armed US militia groups?
Idiot. What was I thinking? Lose Disney and Marvel fans?? Shame on me. We KNOW all terrorism starts at the Canadian and Mexican border, right?
