Magneto (/mæɡˈniːtoʊ/) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with the X-Men. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in The X-Men #1 (cover-dated September 1963) as an adversary of the X-Men. Magneto is a powerful mutant, one of a fictional subspecies of humanity born with superhuman abilities, who has the ability to generate and control magnetic fields. Writers have since fleshed out his origins and motivations, revealing him to be a Holocaust survivor (birth name: Max Eisenhardt; alias: Erik Lehnsherr German pronunciation: [ˈeːʁɪk ˈleːnshɛʁ] and Magnus). His extreme methods and cynical philosophy derive from his "never again" determination to protect mutants from suffering the same fate as the Jews at the hands of a world that fears and persecutes them. He was once a friend of Professor X, the leader of the X-Men, but their differing philosophies caused a rift in their friendship. Magneto's role in comics has progressed from supervillain to antihero to superhero, having served as an occasional ally of the X-Men, even leading the New Mutants for a time as headmaster of the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, and eventually a fully fledged member of the X-Men. Writer Chris Claremont, who created Magneto's backstory, compared the character to then-Israeli opposition leader Menachem Begin,[12] with later commentators comparing the character with the American civil rights leader Malcolm X[13][14] and Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane.[15][16] Magneto appears in X-Men: The Animated Series (1992–1997), voiced by David Hemblen, and its revival X-Men '97 (2024–present), voiced by Matthew Waterson. Ian McKellen and Michael Fassbender have portrayed Magneto in 20th Century Fox's X-Men film series (2000–2019), with McKellen set to reprise the role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Avengers: Doomsday (2026). In 2014, IGN ranked Magneto 1st in their "Top 100 Comic Book Villains" list.

Há cinco anos, X-Men e a Irmandade dos Mutantes se enfrentaram nas ruas de Nova York no evento que ficou conhecido como Dia M. Naquele dia, um mutante perdeu o controle de seus poderes. Nunca se soube quem ele era, de que lado estava ou se era herói ou vilão — apenas que era um mutante. Centenas morreram, seja humano ou mutante. Após a tragédia, o governo dos Estados Unidos implantou a Lei de Registro Mutante. Mutantes passaram a ser catalogados, e os que resistiam eram caçados. Cinco anos depois, sem o Instituto Xavier e sem os X-Men, ser mutante nunca foi tão perigoso. A situação piora quando a Frente de Libertação Mutante, liderada por Mancha Solar, realiza um ataque em forma de protesto, levando o governo a considerar a aprovação da lei de extradição mutante. Hank McCoy, o Fera, torna-se o principal rosto defensor dos mutantes na mídia, o que o coloca na mira dos Purificadores. Ele tenta negociar com o governo, mas é atacado pelos Purificadores. Ao mesmo tempo, Scott Summers, afastado do mundo desde o Dia M, é atacado por um homem misterioso que afirma vir do futuro. Ele mostra visões de campos de concentração e alerta: se Scott não agir, não haverá futuro para os mutantes. Diante disso, Scott sai da aposentadoria e reúne Polaris, Magia, Mancha Solar, Emma Frost e o Fera, formando os novos X-Men para retomar uma luta que nunca deveria ter acabado — agora contra os Purificadores, liderados pelo reverendo Stryker e financiados em segredo pelo senador Kelly
