The Moment: Our very first filmic introduction to Magneto in X-Men, here a young Erik Lensherr. Captured by Nazi forces, he’s transported through a storm season Poland. Tragedy strikes when he’s separated from his mother and father, and the latent mutant’s powers come out in his frustration and fear as he warps the gates that have just shut him away.
If Fassbender Played It: He could play the boy-aged Magneto thanks to a little Benjamin Button technology and absolutely pull it off.

Sorry to be a comic geek, but it was also X-Men #25 not X-Factor #25 where Mags pulled the adamantium out of Wolverine......

Not to jump on the bandwagon but isn't it Jean Grey who lifts the cars in the opening of Last Stand? Magneto then says "Oh Charles, I like this one" referring to Jean? I could be wrong obviously and missed the point they were making so apologies if so....

Where's the bit in First Class with the giant satellite dish? I thought for sure that'd be in the top 5. Fassbender is awesome in that scene!

Spot on with X Men 25 as number 1; easily one of the best issues ever. That' book would also be 1 of the defining moments with Xavier too. nice work TF

I know its personal opinion but for me I just don't see what the fuss is about Michael Fassbender. Ok granted hes not a s**t actor, but you make out on this site regualrly like hes the second coming, and i just don't see it.
