i got to the part of new mutants last night where they leave magneto and the school and I already miss headmaster mags and more than that i miss the incredibly funny dynamic where every time the kids sneak out of school for some mission despite being grounded (happens constantly, they can teleport, what's he gonna do), because cerebro is broken and he can't fix it, he has to GO TO THE HELLFIRE CLUB and use their mutant detector to find his kids while shaw and selene make fun of him for being outsmarted by six teenagers. again.

and he's soooooo mad about it

#x-men #new mutants #headmaster magneto era you will always be famous #also not a fan of how their last confrontation tried to reframe him getting really strict and harsher as like a strategic move #when the existing narrative of mags reacting badly to a real and genuine fear for his students #catalyzed by doug being killed after they snuck out of the school while grounded #was much more compelling! and also made more sense #but oh well. gotta make him the bad guy again somehow the plot demands it. such is magnetos lot in life lmao
