X-Men Poster #140 Issue 4 Cover Magneto Quicksilver Scarlet Witch Jack Kirby

Description

Beast, Cyclops, Iceman, Professor X, Marvel Girl and Angel vs the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants: Magneto, Mastermind, Toad, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver! The Brotherhood of Mutants, originally known as the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (although its members themselves never used the term), is a supervillain team devoted to mutant superiority over normal humans. They were among the chief adversaries of the X-Men. The original Brotherhood was created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby and first appeared in X-Men #4. The group’s roster and ideology have varied from incarnation to incarnation, ranging from world domination to serving as a terrorist group that targets anti-mutant public figures. They are almost always at odds with the more peaceful X-Men, though on rare occasions the two sides have allied against a common threat. The Brotherhood was founded by Magneto and its members were his primary allies in his early battles with the X-Men during the 1960s. The original Brotherhood ultimately disbanded, with Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch going on to become members of the Avengers.
