Did the earth move for you, too?

What could brighten up a rainy Wednesday?

I know! Lovely, lovely X-Men!

Like for example, one page of Namor being awesome from UXM 534.1:

Backstory: Some bad guys in hazmat suits are holding San Francisco hostage by threatening to cause a major earthquake. Namor takes umbrage

Or how about that time Magneto got his groove back through the Power of Sexy? [Two from UXM 507:]

	This is how I imagine Emma getting dressed for a mission: - Puts on costume - Starts to leave boudoir - Goes back to mirror, looks - Tugs down on specific part of costume a bit - Starts to leave boudoir - Goes back to mirror, looks again - Tugs up on same bit of costume - Smiles, leaves boudoir (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Storm (or early Claremontian Storm, anyway) has a Wonder-Woman-like quality of nobility and compassion. In those days she would gladly believe the best of everyone (until you make her angry, then BEWARE.) To kill a helpless, sleeping enemy would feel wrong to her. Magneto, at his best, has a similar nobility about him. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	It's something he mostly used in the 80's. It's the way he first introduced himself to Xavier, when they met in Haifa, for example. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

He used Erik after WWII, then switched to Magnus around the time he was in Israel (though Charles knew his name was Erik), then seems to have switched back to Erik (for the first time to the comics reader) after Charles yelled it at him during Illyana's funeral in UXM 300 or so. But then Gabrielle Haller talked to the UN about his Erik Magnus Lehnsherr identity (and said he was Sinte, not Jewish, but I suspect some political reasoning there!) and Magneto went and killed the forger Georg Odekirk who made the identity for him in the first place. So he could be using anything at all by now.
