The X-Men's greatest ever foe! Poll Results!

X-Men #4, Magneto and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants
It might soon be X-mas but there's a whole heap more X-citement in store for us than that, as the results are finally in from our poll to find the all-time greatest X-Men villain.

I'd like to say it was a close-run thing but the truth is that, to possibly no one's surprise at all, one candidate ran away with it.

Thirteen might be unlucky for some...

...but not for Magneto who came out on top with a mammoth total of exactly that many votes.

Second were the Hellfire Club with four votes.

Joint third were the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Dark Phoenix and the mighty Juggernaut, with two votes apiece.

Joint sixth were Apocalypse and Mr Sinister who scraped together one vote each.

Everyone else got no votes - which is no doubt a comfort to the Toad who can now feel he can look the likes of Deathbird in the eyes as an equal.

So, it's well done to Magnus, or Erik or whatever his real name's supposed to be and, as always, thanks to all who voted.

No surprise here. Perhaps the only surprise is that Mganeto wasn't a unanimous choice, though the fact that he's actually led the X-Men does hurt his case. Why is it that almost every X-Men villain (Magneto, Juggernaut, Rogue, etc.) seems to turn good?
