He's a villain. A villain who is not one-dimensional, who has a point, and most of the time is not completely wrong, but it's a villain because his means are unacceptable (destroy all mankind), and he puts himself as morally superior to humans, but doing the same as the worse of them. And it's not like he's altruistic, he really wants to rule the mutants. But he's not actually a bad person, who would kill and torture just for the heck of it, like Sabretooth, he honestly believes he's right.
We also live in a world where targeting innocent people to accomplish your goals is something the bad guys do. We're not talking about a few innocents dying because a military target was hit, we're talking about killing harmless people just to get your point across. Sounds like a villain to me.
pffft. Whatever. Can we please try to keep this on topic before I stupidly say something that's going to get me banned? I'll be happy to discuss our differing points on global politics either privately or in a "random" room if you would like...
Im not sure what to say really. I really dont blame him for behaving the way he does. See it from his point of view..... his parents were killed by humans who thought his parents were humans.
This is what Magento is thinking, if human beings try to exterminate each other how the **** are they going to let mutants live in peace? That is a valid point.
Imagine your a human living in the Marvel Universe. What would you think? Should you be scared? Yeah you should, even if mutants are not evil depending on what there powers are the chances are they maybe superior to you in alot of ways.
So if your a human living in the marvel universe you had better get yourself some super powers.

Speaking of the Nazi, Magneto grew up in Nazi Germany, he saw first hand what it was like to be abused for you birth, be it mutant or Jewish, i dont think Magneto wants or wanted his ppl , the mutants, from becoming that next set of jews, is it wrong to want to protect YOUR ppl at the cost of possible future agressors?

Everyone has different ideas of what a villain is,my opinion is that Magneto may not be as pure evil as some of the other villains,but he could in fact be labled as a villain.

I think it depends on whose point of view you look at it from....I mean in the end it's war between mutants and humanity....there is no right or wrong in war...no heroes or villians...just loss...and death....
So now that I think about it...I may not agree with his ethos but I wouldn't consider him a villian...maybe that's why in Secret Wars he was placed on the heroes side...
Depends on the writer...
