Magneto and Titanium Man by Paul McCartney – ***

First released: 1975

Marvel Comics had a new hit comic book series when they revamped their "Uncanny X-Men" title in 1975. Apparently, Paul was reading along and wrote a song about two of the villains (as well as Crimson Dynamo). A live version was performed and released on "Wings Over America" in 1976 complete with large drawings of the Marvel characters projected against the back of the stage. This was also the b-side to "Venus and Mars/Rock Show", but probably should have been an a-side.
