Magneto's Version of the Batmobile is So Much Goofier
While Magneto has spent the majority of his career making a name for himself as one of the most fearsome and ruthless villains in the Marvel Universe, one of his earliest schemes revealed that he had his own version of the Batmobile–though Magneto’s was so much goofier for more reasons than one.

As a boy, Erik saw first hand the worst of humanity after he and his family were taken to a Nazi concentration camp. In World War II, Magneto was persecuted for being Jewish and he wanted to make sure the same would not happen because he is a mutant. His methods were violent yet justified given his experiences, though his mistake was believing eradicating humans was the answer as that just made Magneto exactly like those he despised. Before seeing the light and helping form a mutant safe haven alongside Charles Xavier rather than committing acts of terrorism in the name of mutant freedom, Magneto's mission of mutant supremacy was his only focus, and he had one very silly mode of transportation to assist in that effort.
