And a couple of those revelations involve some never before acknowledged children, which begs the question: How many kids does Magneto have? In the film, Magneto has managed to carve out a happy life for himself while in hiding.
He has a wife and a young daughter, Nina, but things go south when authorities catch up to him. During their attempt to capture him, the police accidentally kill both Magneto's wife and daughter, which causes him to turn to the dark side again. Later on in the film, it's revealed that Magneto also had another child earlier: Quicksilver.
That's right, the speedster learns that at some point in the past, Magneto had an affair with his mother, and he was the result. So by my count, that's two kids for Magneto in the film. However, the Magneto in the comics has been a bit more prolific when it comes to making babies. Magneto's first child in the comics is actually very similar to his first-revealed child in X-Men: Apocalypse. However, after Magnus's powers are witnessed by the townsfolk, they burn down his house — with Anya inside.

The result of an affair between Magneto and her mother, Lorna Dane's father believed that she was his daughter until she was three years old. Lorna's magnetic powers manifested while flying with her folks and the resulting magnetic pulse destroyed the plane and killed her parents. Her powers remained dormant until her first appearance in "X-Men" 49 when Mesmero forces her powers to manifest with his Genetic Stimulator Machine. In a bizarre turn of events, an android then reveals that Magneto is Lorna's father, a fact which is confirmed in "Uncanny X-Men" Lorna bonds with her father when she goes to aid him in Genosha, enjoying the training he gives her in the use of her similar powers, but it's not long before he attempts to use her as a weapon in the Genoshan civil war.
The Sentinels destroy Genosha in "New X-Men" 15 and Lorna is left utterly broken after witnessing the massacre, becoming a darker and more violent version of herself. When Havok breaks off their engagement and leaves her for Annie Ghazikhanian, she falls to pieces, requiring Juggernaut to knock her out and Professor X to put her back together again. A bright light that burned for only two issues before being extinguished, Magnus had the potential to become one of Marvel's greatest heroes; unfortunately, it wasn't to be.
Born on Earth to Magneto and Rogue, who were both outlawed X-Men and reformed villains, Magnus survived a traumatic birth to enter a relatively happy childhood. As a boy, his powers of magnetism surpassed his father's, giving him mastery over all magnetic forces and the ability to remold all metallic substances, including adamantium.
His second mutation manifested at age 13 and that's when things took a turn for the worse. In "Exiles" 1, we read that he manifested an ability similar to his mother's, only far more deadly. Upon touching Rogue, she became a statue of solid steel and the young Magnus became distant and lonely, while his father returned to his former villainous ways.
He found redemption by joining the Exiles, a group of time and space traveling superheroes, but their partnership didn't last long, for Magnus was soon required to make the ultimate sacrifice to stop Charles Xavier's A-Bomb.
The next child of Magneto had the same parents but with a different twist. In "X-Men: Alpha," Earth's Magneto and Rogue realized their similar magnetic powers made Magneto immune to Rogue's absorption abilities and they began a relationship. Rogue gave birth to Charles, who Magneto named after his deceased friend Charles Xavier.
This took place in "Age of Apocalypse," an alternate timeline that was created when David Haller traveled back in time and accidentally killed his dad, Charles Xavier, instead of Magneto. Don't mess with time, everyone! Charles' childhood was soon ruined by Bishop, who realized that he had fractured memories of the original timeline, inspiring Magneto to send out groups of X-Men to attempt to change history.
Bishop and Magneto were captured by Apocalypse's forces, and Charles was sent into the Morlock Tunnels under the protection of Nanny, his guard robot. After his dad slew Apocalypse, Charles came to live in the rebuilt mansion once owned by his namesake, Charles Xavier. Sounds like a happy ending, right? Based on Anya Eisenhardt, Nina Gursky appears in "X-Men: Apocalypse," where her death serves as a catalyst for Erik's third transformation into the supervillain Magneto. Erik inadvertently reveals himself as a mutant after using his powers to save a coworker, and upon returning home that night, tells his wife Magda that they must leave immediately.
They find their daughter Nina in the custody of police officers who now know Erik's real identity and that he was responsible for the events in Washington. Erik surrenders to the police in exchange for his family's freedom, but Nina loses control of her mutant abilities, resulting in a swarm of birds attacking the police.
Nina and Magda are killed when one of the officers accidentally shoots them with an arrow and Erik then kills the officers with Nina's metal locket. Once again, he loses his family and becomes Magneto, paving the way for Apocalypse to recruit him. Here comes another child from an alternate reality, but be warned, it's a strange one! Together they make up one disturbing family, all swearing allegiance to the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.
Rogue is also less than faithful to Magneto, regularly cheating on him with Gambit. Standard stuff, really. Their daughter Plague is a devilish creature picture the girl from The Exorcist with the charming ability to create and control tiny robotic viruses, dubbed "Microsentinels," which she uses to burrow into a victim's skin and unleash all manner of nasty diseases.
The story comes to a conclusion when Peter Wisdom, a British MI agent, infiltrates the Brotherhood and manages to persuade Plague to betray her family. Hopefully, she'll never visit the Marvel canon universe! Gerry Conway's Zaladane is another comic book enigma that is still unsolved today.
