Magneto’s favorite painting
We read four of Edward St. Aubyn’s Patrick Melrose novels in a row: Mother’s Milk (the fourth in the series—you can read it in any order), then Never Mind, Bad News and Some Hope. They are exquisitely-written and horrible, and not exactly designed to fill one with love for the human species. So before we crack open the final Melrose novel, At Last, we’re decompressing with some old Ultimate X-Men comics. Probably not the best way to promote goodwill towards homo sapiens—our favorite character is Magneto.
According to the comics this is his favorite painting: La Chateau des Pyrenees by Rene Magritte. Of course. Looks like he raised it.
