Well after reviewing the profiles on both characters I think Magneto is a little tougher. Magneto seems to have more super-power steming from his magnetic mutant ability's. Thor is a a bad azz don't get me wrong, it would be a totally awesome looking fight. Thor would be summoning storms, tornado, and rain. Magneto would be flying around in the rain, and they would be striking each other with lightning bolts and beating each other sensless. Magneto is very powerful, I see Magneto doing something like picking a battleship out of the water and throwing it at Thor. And Thor smashing it with a super hammer swing. I dunno man, these guys are very powerful, they can both fly, it's a tough call. I actually say it ends in a draw.
yea it would be a tight battle...i think there was a thread about this not too long ago...some bio's actually show magneto as having class100 strength...however this is not consistent, and magneto doesnt have a lot of the abilities other people in this class have like superhuman endurance and durability...I honestly think its BS when they say he has class 00 strength...both magneto and Thor have displayed that they can harness the Earth electromagnetic field...I think the nature of magneto's powers would allow him to hang with thor a lot better than most other powerful mutants, because Thors weather attacks like lighting could be fought off by magneto's ability to neutralize electricity...recently in the ultimates, Magneto totally punked Thor and the rest of the avengers...however this whole ultimate universe is kinda getting out of hand, and all the heroes appear to be dramatically different from their classic counterparts...eventually i think Thor would win just because he may have more raw power, and magneto, even with class 100 strength, does not have the durability to survive a blow from Mjolnir.
he is on the 100ton class, because of his power, he can lift 100tons, trough magnetism, it´s not the same thing that thor or superman is true.
about his durability, of course he doesn´t have thor´s resistance to injury, but he can create a electromagnetic force field, that would work like thor´s resistance to injury, look green lantern for example.
maybe the ultimates are getting of hand because they are all tired, of not drawing characters beating the living crap of each others because of the fans. In the ultimates it seems things are completely different, so they have the freedom to draw for example magneto beating the avengers ( i know that magneto wouldn´t beat thor so fast, but i think he can beat him)
well in the comics i do believe he can control all types of metal, i know if we start talking about phisics, there are probably a lot of stuff that magneto does that has no proof, or that exists only in theory. but the thing is, in the comics he can do it.
now read this:
"Although Magneto's primary power is magnetism, he seems to have some ability to project or manipulate any form of energy that is related to magnetism. In the past he has fired a bolt of electricity, he has also created enough intense heat to destroy a metal door. Heat, or infrared radiation, is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which also includes visible light, radio waves, ultraviolet light, gamma-rays, and x-rays. Magneto may be able to project any of these. He has also been shown creating an anti-gravity field, and presumably does so whenever he levitates a non-magnetic object. Hence, Magneto may be living proof of the longsought Unified Field Theory that all forms of energy are related. However, Magneto almost always uses only magnetism, so perhaps it is more difficult for him to manipulate other forms of energy.
In previous years Magneto has apparently exhibited powers of astral projection and telepathy, and has claimed to be able to control the minds of others. His abilities along these lines are minimal, however-enough, perhaps, to protect himself against mightier telepaths, but not of great use otherwise.
Magneto's ability to wield his superhuman powers effectively is dependent upon his physical condition. When severely injured, his body is unable to withstand the strain of manipulating groat amounts of magnetic forces."
And one final question, didn´t in the ultimates magneto trow thor´s hammer against him
yea he did, thats what i was talking about, how he punked Thor in the ultimates, but like i said the wrinting in the ultimate books is very inconsistent to the marvel universe...Magneto should be able to deflect Mjolnir, but i doubt he can ovveride the enchantments placed on it by Odin, and take control of it and use it against Thor...
if you ask me, there is no question. thor could kick the old man's ass with ease! i don't see how anyone could think that magneto could stand a chance with the almighty god of thunder, thor. maybe if magneto used teh brotherhood of evil mutants to try to kill thor but that's just maybe. thor all the way.
