Etymology
The name 'Magneto' is derived from the word 'magnet', which comes from the Latin 'magnes', meaning 'magnetite' or 'heap of magnetite'. This etymology reflects the character's powers over magnetic forces and his connection to metal manipulation. The character was conceived during a period when comic books were expanding their themes and stories, introducing anti-heroes and characters with complex motivations. Magneto's creation also coincided with the burgeoning interest in mutants and the struggles they face, paralleling real-world issues of discrimination and social justice.
