Dear Mr. Brevoort,
I’ve been reading Cullen Bunn’s Magneto series with interest over the past year. I don’t agree with glorifying Magneto’s violence, but it’s been a good read up until yesterday in which Magneto takes a young, human woman to bed. There are several problems I have with this.
1. Magneto is nearly 90 years old and he was making out with and bedding a very young woman. He needs to find someone his own age and stop creeping on the young ones (Rogue, Kitty Pryde, Wasp, etc).
2. Magneto is Jewish and she is a white woman. It’s really ridiculous that they didn’t discuss this before getting in bed together. If Briar Raleigh was to get pregnant, her child would be bi-racial, putting him in between two different races. Furthermore, he would be half-Jew.
3. The most stomach-turning part of this whole encounter is the fact that it’s INTER SPECIAL relations. He’s a mutant, she’s a human. It would be the same as her bedding a dog or pig.
So, she pretty much gave herself up to a 90 year old, non-human, non-white man that’s a terrorist on top of everything else. And for what?
Disappointing and ridiculous. I expect better in the future.
macaxe reblogged this from tomjacksonservo See that first point actually made sense and then it IMMEDIATELY dropped off “WTF Canyon”

Wow.
This is why we can’t have nice things, comics-internet.
I can’t tell if this is a parody submission. If so, kudos, it’s friggin hilarious. If not… er… you need to work some...
….. WTF. Is this a joke or does someone, an X-Men fan, no less! actually hold these (batshit) opinions?
The sad thing about the state of comics fandom, the internet, and the world in general today is I can’t tell if this is...

I’m so glad I wasn’t raised to think like that.
