I was TV channel surfing hours ago and I saw this old cartoon I was barely able to identify but a prominent comic book character was shown so I watched it.
I saw none other than Magneto. I thought I'm going to watch an old school X-Men cartoon series so I thougth, "This would be cool."
There's one major problem I immediately saw. Why the heck is he riding on a Magnetomobile (or hover plane) with a huge @$$ "M" logo in front? Where the hell is his flight ability and the electromagnetic spherical shield?
(WTF number 1)
He brought that Magnetomobile to a gas station and demanded the gasoline boy to give him free gasoline because he's the master of magnetism yadda yadda and he started to destroy nearby metallic structures to scare the guy.
(WTF number 2. Where's the idealistic, gray persona that we know?)
He then proceeded to the Fantastic Four Headquarters.
(WTF number 3. I thought I was watching X-Men. What's the Fantastic 4 gotta do with mutants?)
He then challenged Reed for a duel and the winner becomes the new leader of the Fantastic 4? Magneto won. F4 hesitantly recognized him now as their new leader.
(WTF number 4. Leadership dispute is settled by a duel?)
Magneto then used the Fantastic 4 to execute a bank robbery the F4 hesitantly obeyed.
(WTF number 5. Magneto? Bank Robbery? and he still needs F4 to do it?)
All this time, Reed was planning a retaliatory strike at Magneto and what he did was create a non metallic gun, convince Magneto that it's metallic. Magneto tried his powers on the gun and when it didn't work, he believed that his powers were neutralized by the gun.
(WTF number 6).
The end of the story was, Magneto was captured by the police after believing that his powers no longer work.
(WTF number 7).
