===Son of M and the Collective Incident===
In the [[Limited series (comics)|limited series]] ''[[Son of M]]'', there is a battle between some of the remaining mutants and the [[Inhumans]].

In ''[[The New Avengers (comics)|The New Avengers]]'' #19-20 it was stated that energy cannot be created or destroyed, and the same held true for the energies of the numerous depowered mutants. Eventually, these energies gathered in the form of an unsuspecting energy-absorbing mutant named [[Michael Pointer (comics)|Michael Pointer]]. Dubbed "the Collective" by the Avengers, against whom he then fought, the Collective traveled to Genosha and reached out to the startled Magneto. The Collective, controlled by [[Xorn]], attempted to restore Magneto's powers and convince him to lead the remaining mutants into taking over the planet. To the Collective's surprise, Magneto resisted and allowed the Avengers to separate the energy from his body and send it into the sun. The comatose Magneto is also taken into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody, but the helicopter that was supposed to transport him off Genosha explodes once it lifts off. Magneto's body is not found. It has since been revealed that he survived the explosion and remained depowered until the [[High Evolutionary]]'s dangerous experiment returned his magnetic abilities.<ref>''The New Avengers'' #19-20.
