You now understand our dilemma in ranking the characters on spots ten and nine, as Magneto and Professor X are two sides of the same medal. They’re pretty equal in terms of power, they were (and still are, in some strange way) close friends and they want(ed) to change the world. Their ideologies are what ultimately drove them away, as Magneto had a more merciless, anti-human point of view, while Charles Xavier was more of a pacifist that tried to show the humans that mutants pose no danger for them. Charles Xavier is a brilliant character and is one of the most important characters in the X-Men lore, which is why we absolutely had to include him on our list. Also, thank you both Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy for making the character even more popular through your cinematic interpretations.
Welcome to discuss the world of these superheroes!
