Magneto shaved off his hair to honor the passing of Professor Xavier, which leaves a striking visage – especially in that cover to Magneto #2, which evokes Xavier. How has Xavier has influenced him, both in history and in his absence now due to death?

Magneto and Xavier might have been enemies, but they were also the best of friends. Magneto admires what Xavier was trying to do. He only wishes it could have worked. Now, Magneto is haunted by Xavier’s death. Deep down, he knows that he needed Charles as a counterbalance. He feels as if they provided each other with a system of checks and balances. With Xavier gone, Magneto’s not sure that anyone else can stop him if he goes too far. — Cullen Bunn (x)
