Luliani ben Tabrin was a Palestinian scholar of the beginning of the fourth century.Luliani is particularly known as the transmitter of haggadot of his teacher, Isaac Nappaha. He is frequently mentioned in pre-Talmudic literature and in the Midrash. There is, however, one haggadah ascribed to Luliani himself: "When the lesser people listen to the great and yet the latter do not alleviate the burden of the former, they shall account for it to God" (Ruth R., Introduction, 6); but a similar sentence is ascribed to R. Isaac in Deut. R. i. 8.The statement of Midrash Tehillim (to Ps. xviii. 29) that Luliani transmitted a haggadah of R. Ishmael is apparently a mistake due to the abbreviation. Luliani is mentioned also as having asked his teacher Isaac a halakic question (Yer. Meg. 75c).Luliani was the father of the Hiyya ben Luliani who is frequently mentioned in the Jerusalem Talmud and who is stated to have caused rain to fall in time of drought (Ta'an. 25a).

Magneto () is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with the X-Men. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby, the character first appears in The X-Men #1 (cover-dated Sept. 1963) as the archenemy of the X-Men. The character is a powerful mutant, one of a fictional subspecies of humanity born with superhuman abilities, who has the ability to generate and control magnetic fields. Magneto regards mutants as evolutionarily superior to humans and rejects the possibility of peaceful human-mutant coexistence; he initially aimed to conquer the world to enable mutants, whom he refers to as homo superior, to replace humans as the dominant species. Writers have since fleshed out his origins and motivations, revealing him to be a Holocaust survivor whose extreme methods and cynical philosophy derive from his determination to protect mutants from suffering a similar fate at the hands of a world that fears and persecutes mutants. He is a friend of Professor X, the leader of the X-Men, but their different philosophies cause a rift in their friendship at times. Magneto's role in comics has varied from supervillain to antihero to superhero, having served as an occasional ally and even a member of the X-Men at times. His character's early history has been compared with the civil rights leader Malcolm X and Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane. Magneto opposes the pacifist attitude of Professor X and pushes for a more aggressive approach to achieving civil rights. Magneto was ranked by IGN as the Greatest Comic Book Villain of All Time. Sir Ian McKellen portrayed Magneto in five films of the X-Men film series, while Michael Fassbender portrayed a younger version of the character in three films. Fassbender will reprise his role in Dark Phoenix.
