Ep.81 - The #1 Podcast For Reminding You Of All The Problematic Things Magneto Has Done Feb 18, 2019

Show notes

Episode Notes

This episode is going to talk about stories where Magneto attempts to commit genocide and generally acts like a monster. We talk bluntly about the parallels to the real world. If that's not what you need in your life, no sweat, see you next week.

Also, we split it up with a Silver Age story so we still have some jokes.

Ranked this episode:

Magneto Rex
X-Men #4-5 (The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants)
New X-Men #146-150 (Planet X)
