Loki vs Magneto

's on.

Magneto would go down quickly. His shields and helmet wouldn't protect him from being turned into a newt. Even if Magneto got the first shot in and kept up the pressure I don't see him winning.

Unless his helmet gives him protection from sorcery, I'm hard pressed to see Magneto beating Loki. Someone can attempt to enlighten me, however 🙂

I'm pretty sure he would be depending on his shields, not his helmet...

How does a magnetic field protect against magic? 😕

Loki and probably even without too much trouble.

I know that, but I've heard some people claim his helmet, since it can blocks telepathy and psionic intrusion, can similiarly do the same against magical forces.

Which I sincerly doubt.

It protected him from Wanda's Hexes not sure if that's magic though. But Loki can do more then make someone lose an eyelash.

loki

Loki should destroy him.

🤨

Magneto =/= Silver Surfer

but my point was magic isn't necessarily a "magic bullet" in a fight, even vs a non-magic character.

I mean, what do you think Loki is going to do against Magneto that he couldn't against Surfer?

The Power Cosmic is not really that different from magic. Both allow you to do pretty much anything.

they're both powerful energy manipulators, granted surfer is a bit better

Same as Spiral did to him once, turn off his powers.

Yeah, I don't see any way for Magneto to even challenge Loki.

loki turns him into a tree or something

so you're just assuming loki could replicate Spiral's powers?

I think he should certainly be able to do the same thing. Or something else that Magneto has no defense against.

Here's a fight between Apocalypse (in his lair) and Loki from X-Factor Vol.1 #50.

Loki did not really come there to fight as that not his style, but I don't see Magneto getting away with that against Apocalypse on his own home ground.
