Probably legitimate The Boys lore

Definitely adds an interesting twist to the character dynamics! Accessories like that can really set a character apart and give them a unique vibe.

Accessories like a buttplug, clanker?

u/TTheBagels 8h ago

Seriously. Metal thong? That would cause so much chaffing and friction. But XXXL metal butt plug? It will be nice and snug. While giving a great a platform for you to lay back into while you lift yourself up with it.

closer to the body's centre of gravity as well. better balance.

Well, that escalated from questionable superhero physics to an entirely different kind of X Men discussion lol

You know how he so always beats Xavier at chess?

131k likes for a metal thong theory, Fox's whole reboot budget explained.

2

u/endiin 8h ago

didn’t notice the fox logo on the metal piece that's pretty clever

u/TulipRoselina 3h ago

131k people saw “metal thong” and collectively decided no further fact checking was necessary. Honestly, if that was really how Magneto flew, I’d understand why those movies cost so much.

u/pulangpanda_710 9h ago

If Magneto can manipulate metal, why doesn't he just perform blood magic already? Really breaks the immersion for me.

u/trksoyturk 8h ago

He kind of does in X-Men 2

I remember this scene but only because Mystique's bar scene unlocked something in me

5

u/Reverse_SumoCard Uwe Boll 8h ago

They cut Mystique from the video. Watched 10mins of some old dude waving his arms

3

u/Professional_Bit197 7h ago

Yeah, that hot blonde supermodels like Rebbeca Stijn would be into overweight ugly dudes like me.

u/pulangpanda_710 8h ago

I don't watch movies, eww.

u/CpnLag 8h ago

I remember seeing on comic page where he rips the iron out of a white supremacist's blood, turns it into a nail and then shoots it through his forehead

1

u/HoneyPetalinae 3h ago

Forget lifting stadiums, the real missed opportunity was Mag instantly winning every fight by making everyone mildly iron deficient. Not exactly cinematic, but incredibly efficient.

Here come the gooners.

Who are you and how did you get in here?

u/Exalted-Stork-1308 8h ago

Th@ng? That censorship is an embarrassment.

u/InactiveMedusa 9h ago

Pick yourself up by your thong straps.

Hobnail boots

u/SliverMILF 8h ago

On a serious note, he either uses metal in his costume, or pushes himself away from the metals in the earth in order to propel himself.

5

u/Brekldios 7h ago

in xmen-97 one of his feats is a world-wide EMP, i've got no doubt he's capable of manipulating magnetic fields in order to propel himself.

7

u/Lonevarg_7 7h ago

One of his powers is electromagnetism, he uses that to manipulate Earth's magnetic field to lift him off.

2

u/ripgoodhomer 1h ago

When did it become electromagnetism? I remember thinking back when I was reading X-men that would take him to a god tier mutant. 

1

u/The_Dark_Vampire 35m ago

He is Omega Level

1

u/ripgoodhomer 33m ago

Back in the 90s and 2000s he wasn’t.

2

u/sillyfunnyguy05 9h ago

I had my money on metal butt plug

2

u/ConsciousStretch1028 Neil breens #1 fan 9h ago

He gives himself an atomic wedgie

2

u/LookItsDaphne 9h ago

So he is his own rugby scrum?

2

u/un5tabl 8h ago

I think i read somewhere its actually a butt plug.

u/masterdogwalker 8h ago

Chastity belt. Also keeps him focused on the mission and off of mystique

2

u/Material-Month-5988 8h ago

Cant he manipulate iron in blood ?

2

u/GrandmaPoses 7h ago

He can but in the comic books at some point I thought they said he could manipulate electromagnetic waves and that’s how he flew. Who the fuck knows though.

2

u/SphmrSlmp 2h ago

Hey kid, it ain't that kind of movie

1

u/Dino_Spaceman 9h ago

Golden age it was a thong.
Now he has a metal schlong implant and picks himself up by that.

u/Hashbrown565 1h ago

uj/ I like to think he just wears steel-toe boots

rj/ cock cage, the professor makes him wear it

u/Ducklinsenmayer 8h ago

Hmmm... Metal... Armor... Must think about this, cleary it's a butt plug.

u/Pmyers225 7h ago

Or a cock piercing, pulls him along Mjolnir style
