Avengers #111 (May) With Two Beside Them.
Steve Englehart, Don Heck, Mike Esposito.
Magneto is now so powerful that he can control people through the iron in their blood. This must be a power he either forgets during subsequent encounters, or else will feel embarrassed about using. Here he causes the X-Men and Avengers to fight, which would never happen otherwise. His plan is to detonate an atom bomb in hope of the resulting radiation creating more mutants for his proposed army, even though mutants are surely born rather than created, otherwise every caped fuckwit who ever had a balls-up in the science lab would be a mutant. Those Avengers who still have their free will save the day and Magneto is defeated by the Vision who points out that the Master of Magnetism can't count, supporting my hypothesis that he's a massive thickie. The X-Men recover to the realisation of the Angel still being missing and that they're now down to just three, not including Chuck.
