Magneto

Yup, we are going to go full-on Dork today and will be discussing the X-Men villain, Magneto.  What I want to know is - how exactly does Magneto fly?  We know that he can control metal (at least, that's the gist of his mutant power) and we know that he usually flies around all over the place when doing his evil deeds or just when he is getting a beer out of the fridge.  But how exactly?  They usually portray him wearing his customary purplish costume and signature helmet.  However, only his helmet is made of metal and if that is what he is using to fly, that has to be painful and would definitely cause headaches.  So, does he use a metal belt buckle?  Grab your belt buckle right now and tell me that that makes any sense.  Are his boots made of metal?  If so, imagine you trying to fly when you are so top heavy, that can't be easy.  Does he have some sort of metal shoulder strap under that cape?  That has to chaff like hell on his armpits. Is he wearing a metal contraption that he uses like underwear?  Then his balls cannot be comfortable.  On top of that, he is old, so his joints probably ache and he has to go to the bathroom every ten minutes.  Honestly, I have no idea how he does it, but whatever it is that he is doing, it has to hurt like hell after a long day of battling Wolverine or that other worthless mutant that can shoot light out of her hands, Dazzler (seriously, that is her mutant power, shooting light out of her hands, how is that possibly useful?).  I'm sure that they explain how he does it in-depth in the actual comic books, but even if they did, I think I covered all of the possibilities and none sound promising.  Maybe he uses a combination of a bunch of metal all over his body.  But if that is the case, then flying has to use up a lot of his concentration and when fighting Beast or some other good guy, that would definitely hinder his fighting capabilities, which is never good when the guy his trying to beat can shoot laser beams out of his eyes.

"How do you do it, old man?"
