'Harry Potter' Villain Takes on the Baddest of the Bad
In 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,' resilient evildoer Lord Voldemort continues to torment the students of Hogwarts. But how does he stack up against other iconic baddies?

ROUND FOUR

In the red corner:
LORD VOLDEMORT
Record: 2-0 against Mr. & Mrs. Potter. 0-2-1 against Harry Potter
Special move: The "I'm dead … psyche! No I'm not!" rope-a-dope.

He Who Must Not Be Named is the most feared wizard in the Harry Potter universe. Known for mercilessly killing anyone who stands in his way, Voldemort somehow hit a wall and fell to the infant Harry Potter. After a little while spent hanging out on other people's heads and resting up, he's returned to finish the job. Ruthless, powerful, and ugly — he's a bad-guy triple threat.

In the black corner:
MAGNETO
Record: 1-0 against Wolverine, 0-1 against Phoenix, 0-1 against Beast, 1-1 against large plastic prisons.
Special move: "Hold it, now hit it": using his magnetic powers to hold any metal-bearing opponent in mid-air, then chucking them through walls.

Magneto is a mutant with the ability to manipulate all forms of metal, but his sinister nature is underscored by his wit and incredible fashion sense (no one else can pull off a royal purple cape and matching helmet — we've tried). Not one to use his fists for anything other than making a dramatic point, Magneto prefers to use more subtle methods of attack — like, say, chucking cop cars at people or twisting their metal skeletons. Likes to lull opponents into a false sense of safety by playing "good cop/bad cop" alongside Professor X.
