Magneto is a powerful mutant born in Germany in 1920 whose real name is Max Eisenhard. He has 18 powers but his top 5 favorites are electricity control, magnetism, unarmed combat, force fields, and gravity control, with gravity control being his absolute favorite for its ability to control gravity. A real-life 5-year-old boy named Erman Delic has been observed attracting metal objects, similarly to Magneto's powers over magnetism, though doctors have been unable to diagnose the cause of the boy's ability.
