Paty's Vision of Lovliness

Great letter, Paty!

I'd love to be able to read Byrne's totally geeky letter about Superman's powers, though. :LOL

GRAND MAGNETO THREAD

Originally posted by Panz I love when Kurt slips in a bit of German, but Chris is the only one who does it consistantly. He also had him call Kitty "undershirt" instead of "Little darling" more often than not by mis-spelling "Liebchen" as "Leibchen" :LOL

GRAND MAGNETO THREAD

I can't think of a single instance of a European gentry marrying a jew, but maybe that is just my limited knowledge in the field.... Antisemitism has sadly been around for a long long time.

Does anybody here know of an example for a European nobleman or -woman choosing a Jewish spouse?

GRAND MAGNETO THREAD

As I said before "Lehnsherr" means something like "Lord of the Manor" and clearly indicates nobility - and that's something that was never bestowed on Jews or Gypsies in Germany.

Lehnsherr

Just out of curiosity, when was it revealed that Lehnsherr is just a pseudonym?

I long for the days when there was only Uncanny X-Men, New Mutants and Annuals, and I could afford to read the whole story...And it was worth it, too!

WHADDYA LOOK LIKE??????

That's me in my avatar... Well, the costume has been photoshopped on (I know I know, it's the pre-Cockrum Starboy - what can I say, I look great in fuchsia).

Here it is a little bigiger, sans animation:

GRAND MAGNETO THREAD

The first stupid thing that was done to Magneto post-Claremont was to retcon him from a Jew to a Gypsy and then give him a name neither Jew nor Gypsy would have - Lehnsherr ("Lord of the Manor) - a name that sadly even made it into the movies.

That is a strikingly beautiful drawing. I miss seeing Jon's work on a regular basis.

Magneto Sighting in Belton, SC

You go Paty!

I bought the book all the way over here in Germany (Ach! I was the only one at my "shop" who ordered it it seems). I really love it and it brought a tear to my eye more than once. :)
