Complete Guide To Every X-Men Character Who Returned After Death

3. Magneto

Sentinel Genosha
Marvel Comics

How Did He Die?

Recently injured by a berserker Wolverine, Magneto was obliterated by a giant Sentinel fist as his country, Genosha, burned down around him thanks to the machinations of Charles Xavier's evil twin, Cassandra Nova.

How Did He Come Back?

After a mutant purporting to be Magneto destroyed Manhattan, Charles Xavier whisked his body away to Genosha where he was seen playing chess with... Magneto. Apparently, he just survived that big, giant Sentinel fist. Oh, and he can walk again now, too. Funny how that worked out.
