Like what exactly?
If you're talking about recent he doesn't have much.
He was repowered and then joined the X-Men.
From there he ripped off metal armour from a Predator X and it tired him out. He was bedridden then.
He went after Proteus (who weakened himself and split himself into multiple hosts) and messed with his energy matrix signature or something. Quite impressive.
He has the bullet thing. Very impressive.
He blasted some Nimrods in Second Coming.
He got taken down by Oblivio from the Children of the Vault.
What else? Omega Sentinel took him down too. Using plastic.
Magneto is very impressive, his shields are very impressive. You're better off using older scans to make your point. The scans that were presented show that there is context regarding the Phoenix feat. That is all.
Would you like me to scan Claremonts interview from X-Men Companion I for you for his thoughts on Phoenix's power levels between X-Men #109 and before she met Mastermind?

You are forgetting a lot of stuff.
Him taking on the avengers and defeating them and actually koed thor with his own hammer.
Him almost, completely being a planetary threat, preventing sunrays from entering earth by controling the magnetic field surrounding earth.
Him taking on the entire avengers yet again that included sentry and him letting his shields down and begging sentry to kill him and even then he was busting through heros.
And the list goes on.
You are using low showings... very bad low showing to help your case.

It had nothing to do with Batman? Well what about what happened to Superman prior to him taking out the bomb? Superman was under Mageddons mind control Batman spoke to Superman telepathically and straight afterwards Superman broke free, we even have Superman refering to how he found Batman's tone annoying. So did that particular instance have nothing to do with Batman when Superman was under Mageddons mind control (for at least hours) and suddenly broke free straight after Batman spoke to him?
What about another instance by the same writer were a kid shouts Supermans name and the he immediately breaks out of the mind control. What that indicates if speaking to Superman provides motivation he can boost his power levels and in both these instances thats what happened.
Superman does not always manage to boost himself in order to defeat a threat so are we can't assume that he will always manage to defeat a threat. What we do know is that speaking (not merely speaking it's if what you say motivates him) to him can boost his power levels.
Batman stated that he couldn't do it alone Supermans response was ' I'm not alone' ie I have you guys here with me motivating me in 'spirit'. We can clearly see that Morrison was trying to imply that its not all about Superman and that eventhough Superman is the most powerful member of the JLA he still needs them and they provide 'spiritual' support.
At the very least you can't argue that Batman had nothing to do with it especially since due to Batman Superman was able to break out of the mindcontrol.

magneto would have to cut off all access to the sun.
Why would he have to do that when he can change the yellow sunlight in the atmosphere to anti-sunlight?

except that it wouldn't, as it's already been tried, and it failed. that happened on panel, and is canon.
Of course it happened on panel and it's canon but it's not that simple is it? It's why he managed to do it, it's not just a simple matter of him managing to absorb it. He doesn't always manage to beat uber threats and there was an X factor there that would have made a difference.

Those one's I'm listing aren't low showings. Those are his current showings which you asked for. I helped make the Magneto respect thread.
Also when did he KO Thor with his own hammer? He controlled it. He didn't KO Thor with it.
When did he prevent Sunrays from entering the Earths atmosphere?
He was being boosted by the Collective when he took on the Sentry & The Avengers.
He has some nice showings but those certainly aren't them.

Debating from my phone... it should be on his respect thread.
Oh ya no, it's in his respect thread. Easy find right?

It's not there, Magneto can manipulate the Hammer. He's done it on two occasions. He did not KO Thor with it.
