So last Friday, the wife and I were watching X2 (very good flick, much better than the first one), and while the credits were rolling, my wife made an observation about how Magneto’s helmet has got to be the ultimate achievement in tinfoil hat development. If he can block Xavier and Cerebro’s effects, certainly he should be able to stop all those government mind control rays.
So this got me thinking: Do you think Stan Lee intentionally gave Magneto this ability as a spoof of the whole mind control paranoia thing, or is it just a coincidence?
