i got the image of just his eyes floating around. that's spooky, hehehe.

Talles Mariano well as long as there is a lot of metal around, he should still be able to figure out a lot about the world around him. He can sense the iron flowing in people's blood, so he'd know when nobody's around and he could safely become visible.

Run slowly I thought about this. I think they film him writing it and initially it looks backwards from what would be our point of view, but in editing they flip it around so it looks normal. I think lol

Sentanyl3 that is actually exactly what happens

The ability to control the atom phase of an object, anywhere, anytime.

Probability manipulation; you can manipulate the probability of anything happening, like increasing the probability of say, someone winning the lottery, and raising the orobability to 100% for that person.

@@themammoth9051 but it isn't the most powerful. The most powerful would be controlling the fundamental force's of nature. Or even just matter manipulation is better than probability manipulation I'm guessing.

but in reality there is NO difference, one IS the other. the math works that way, that's why it's all one force not two correlating to each other.

So he's a walking Gamma Ray Burst? Thats horrifying

The Electromagnetic Spectrum is a large spectrum of types of Energy... Magneto has control over all of them. However, his strongest aspect of the spectrum is Magnetism energy itself. And Yes, Mageneto could suck out the Gamma energy from the Hulk to weaken him...

Brian Mccann yeah he can control all that but it may require a lot of efforts. and hes only a mortal. he needs to focus and scream louder and louder and get angrier like super saiyan to activate those powers

In the Old Marvel RPG by TSR using tbe Faserip system... Magneto has Unearthly (100) Control over Magnetism itself. Magneto has Monstrous (75) Control over the Rest of the Electromagnetic spectrum. And no, Magneto does not need to Scream or scream louder to activate those powers. He uses them All the time in subtle ways most people never notice. His Magnetic Force Fields used to invisible, but now he likes to make it visible by mixing in his other spectrums to make it visible. In the comics he has found making his powers Visible intimiates opponents better. Plus he can Power his own machines, etc...without touching them, and without thinking about it.

@@harold6522 Right, because modern machinery isn't set up to function like the 1900s. We don't *have* analog devices around to fall back on, so it would be far worse than just reverting to a time before computers and automation. It would more or less be a reset. And unless we could rebuild analog civilization overnight, civilization would be screwed. And considering all means of communication would be cut (no mailmen are coming to work, and if they did, whose going to use fuel for mailtrucks?), organizing any sort of large reconstruction would be impossible. And given the population density and reliance on automation, society in general would just fall apart. It would be nothing like the 1900s. We would be in the stone age, except worse, because nobody would know wtf they're doing, and there'd be no natural sources of food/water near most people to even keep folks alive after factory farms just shut off. It'd be a total apocalypse for sure.

RS Do tell

Indeed. Magneto has been around a long time, which means various writers have utilized the theoretical limits of his powers over the years. Basically all of the powers in this vid have been done. The liquefying metal, high speed flight, "slime golem" type stuff, ect.. That's all common stuff. However even the more extreme/obscure stuff like controlling a victim's mind, atomic fusion, or invisibility have been done.

Murkglow is that true? did they really use that kind of Power for magneto?

fernando velasco Yep. Type in like "Magneto invisibility" or "Magneto full power" to find scanned comic pages and discussion talking about it.

They've done it: Magneto sent an EM pulse via the Earth's magnetic field, temporarily trashing the world's electronics. The X-Men went to confront him and in sheer fury, Magneto liquefied Wolverine's adamantium and pulled it through his pores. Jean had to push herself to her brink to keep Logan alive and intact. He has controlled or at least been able to influence people by moving the iron in their blood to certain parts of their brain in a very crude form of telepathy.

No, but you can liquify it.

gandalftheantlion If the way to liquify it is to superheat it, then how is it different from melting it?

gandalftheantlion yes it can be liquified, but that is not what Kyle said. Kyle said melt and boil. That's just about impossible once Adamantium has been forged once.

SweggySpoder But besides that, what does it mean to liquify a metal, if you're not melting it? What's the scenario there? I'm not a physicist, so that might be why I'm missing something. Please explain.

Everything has a melting point.

Acheron Parthenopaeus Dunno if missles can fly without any guidance or the ability to launch due to all of the launch computers being fried. Generators might work, but anything with a chip or transistor would be adios, even deep underground. Not to mention the fact that a direct shot from a solar flare would dump an insane amount of radiation on the planet's surface: we might be all dead anyway, bombs or not.

chris alexander They're(supposedly) auto locked onto their known enemies. And I completely forgot the implications of EVERYTHING being fried, so missile launches wouldn't be a thing.

Yep, missiles require electronic parts to launch. However, it could likely cause every nuclear power plant on earth to melt down at once, so you may just get your nuclear apocalypse.

Throttle Kitty Huzzah! Wait no shit!

Throttle Kitty Actually, nuclear reactors have an automatic shutdown in case of events such as power grid failure or emp attacks. So no, reactors would not just spontaneously melt down.

Ghostronaut im with u man; unfortunately this video's context seems more, "why is he NEVER shown 2 be able 2 do more?," instead of acknowledging that he can do all of these things and then some, like we true fans are aware of. His abilities extend WAY beyond ferrokinetics, and closer 2 cosmic levels; changing the earth's magnetic fields, reversing its poles, constantly maintaining asteroid m's orbit and power by himself (even when preoccupied or sleeping), creating wormholes and spacewarps, etc. contrary 2 revisionist history, he was the only person that cosmic spiderman fought and DIDNT beat. magz merely went 2 test his abilities 2 determine if he was a mutant or not, and though he could feel spidey's assault thru his forcefield, he was never in any danger, and left from disinterest.

ferstgun lastbullet Absolutely

Yes he definitely can

ferstgun lastbullet YES

Frankly, I don't think so. Earth's iron core is, on average, more than 6000 kilometers below your feet. Since the strength of a magnetic force/attraction between to bodies is inversely proportional to the distance between them *squared*. While Magneto is undoubtedly very powerful, if he was able to create a force strong enough to penetrate over 6000 kilometers of rock and lava and other minerals, I think the effects would be slightly bigger than just slightly tugging the core towards magneto.

@@MeoWHamster He has completely covered the earth in asteroids multiple times. He can and has used the Earth's core for survival and as a threat

Reep 22 her power.

Camilla B in the alternate reality it was actually his power that allowed him to touch her something to do with the magnetism

Rogue's lack of control was a mental block due to trauma when her powers manifested. When Xavier was walking the earth to make amends for all the shit he had done over the years he teamed up with Danger (The original Danger Room A.I. in a robot body), and gave Rogue therapy to remove the block. She has been in control of her powers since.

Reep 22 They actually got it on in the main continuity, after Age of X concluded and soneone set the universe back to what it was.

Grahf0 bottom line is before all that stuff nobody could touch her and he was the only one that got to make the hump.

Can't send the power rangers either Magneto would fuck the Megazord right up.

I thought he did that in his uniform to armor it anyway.

I remember his clothes /uniform being made of magnetic fibers so he could control their appearance and density. This was referenced when he took over Professor Xavier’s responsibilities when Prof. X was off world for a few years in the late 80’s/early 90’s.

You monster. -- KH

He goes by many names.

Pit Friend the thing is a electromagnetic fields are less and less effective over the distance. So to generate a EMP that strong to cover the entire globe, would kill him because how much energy is bursted out all the sudden

He did exactly that in the Fatal Attractions series. Created an EMP across the whole planet that crippled electronics over the whole planet. The X-men had Shi-ar tech that was somehow immune to EMP.

James Lightfoot Effective EMP shielding was invented in 1836, it's called a Faraday cage...Most military electronics have EMP shielding, this practice began when they anticipated an EMP blast from nuclear weapons.

also it is fairly easy and cheap to shield the power lines around the globe, but the electricity companies won't do that because "cheap" is still higher than zero money

Pit Friend Solar Flare sounds much cooler than E.M.P

and also what was up with the editing there? was that a mistake?

No, I was invisible. -- KH

oh... I am dumb, slightly less dumb now that I have watched this but still dumb.

But his powers enable him to "magneto-locate" by projecting magnetic field around and reading its interactions with outside matter. Remember - nothing in the world is "non-magnetic".

he could make himself invisible except for his eyes, like floating eyeballs

Square Squid Studios with enough power he should be able to levitated anything and if adamantium can't melt how was it forged in the first place? Even if doesn't turn liquid I can still conduct current and heat which will be more than enough to cook wolverine.

@Dantick09 You should probably read a few more times before commenting. First you repeat what I said and then ignored that I said "once it cools". So after those 2 comments, it is reasonable to assume that your comment about wolverine cooking, might have been with the assumption that I was claiming otherwise... which I didn't. But as a side note... it wouldn't kill him. Not while he still has his powers anyways.

If he can't melt his bones, couldn't he fuse the atoms together so it wouldn't be adamantium any more?

Adamantium can be melted and Magneto already did that back in 1993's Fatal Attraction arc: marswillsendnomore.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/x-men-25-010.jpg Kyle even directly referenced it at 4:17.

1. Diamagnetic materials can still be levitate by sufficiently strong enough magnetic fields. Take water: H2O has a more + side (the H that's lending an electron) and a more - side (the O that's borrowing an electron). That for instance is how the frog is levitating, but just about all substance has a somewhat unbalanced charge based on its atomic configuration. 2. Adamantium does not liquify in heat. Not even the sun, not a plasma blast, never. It can be liquefied only by antimetal vibranium or extremely high level matter manipulation/reconfiguration (Magneto, Molecule Man, Beyonder). So, he's still right, Magneto could create a field to heat up the liquefied adamantium and pull it through every skin cell Logan has. Pretty awful indeed.

@Kage Tsuki He literally can control all metal whenever it's convenient, even non-magnetic metals.

well his name is MAGNETo

Actually, a better question, would Magneto even be able to cause adamantine to reach its melting point a second time?

He did survive, horribly hurt, and off course, he skeleton was re-Adamatized!

Kay Aldren there is a story line about the.. Check it it's pretty sick

Kay Aldren i hate to break it to you but scientifically everything has a melting point. So if a metal can be melted down once, it can be melted down twice. Adamantium has a melting point of 15,000 degree Fahrenheit according to william stryker. So if you heat adamantium to 15,000 degree it will melt. Because science

Gilbert Ortega While I agree, there was something they said it was much harder to melt a second time, sorta like, you melt it, cast it, and then it’s unable to be melted at the same temp. I don’t know how the science behind that might work, maybe the way it crystalizes or something.
