Magneto #1

In Magneto #1 (1996), written by Peter Milligan and Jorge González and illustrated by Kelley Jones, the story begins with Joseph—once known as Magneto—seeking answers about his forgotten past. As he hunts for fragments of the lost city of Avalon, he encounters the Acolytes, who believe their long-lost leader has returned. With Exodus preparing to unleash New Avalon and its deadly consequences, Joseph is drawn into a dangerous deception when Cortez urges him to take on Magneto’s identity to stop the threat. The cover by Kelley Jones and John Beatty captures the intensity of this pivotal moment.
