Será que Bryan Singer inventou a idéia de que o capacete de Magneto bloqueia a telepatia?

11

No primeiro filme de X-Men de Bryan Singer, "X-Men", a seguinte conversa acontece entre Wolverine e o Professor X:

PROFESSOR X: This device amplifies my powers, allowing me to track mutants across great distances; that's how I intend to find Rogue.
WOLVERINE: Why don't you just use it to find Magneto?
PROFESSOR X: I've been trying, but he seems to have found some way to shield himself from it.
WOLVERINE: How would he know how to do that?
PROFESSOR X: Because he helped me build it. Now, if you'll excuse me.

Esta cena indica que a telepatia do Professor está de alguma forma sendo bloqueada. Após a sequência de lutas da estação de trem, nos é dada uma explicação do motivo, mostrado aqui:

WOLVERINE: You said he wanted me.
PROFESSOR X: I made a terrible mistake; his helmet, somehow designed to block my telepathy. I couldn't see what he was after until it was too late.

O que torna essa afirmação tão intrigante é que na série de Stan Lee / Jack Kirby, "Os X-Men", Magneto e o Professor são mostrados se comunicando telepaticamente em várias ocasiões, e mais tarde nos anos 90, o show "X- Men: The Animated Series "mostrou que o professor foi capaz de entrar na cabeça de Magneto sem problemas, independentemente do capacete. Então, fiquei curioso; Bryan Singer simplesmente inventou um pouco sobre o capacete de Magneto, ou isso foi algo de uma das histórias em quadrinhos que foi esquecida no programa de TV animado?

De acordo com Wikipédia :

Magneto has been frequently depicted as able to resist all but the strongest or most unexpected of telepathic attacks. A number of explanations have been proposed for his unusually strong resistance to telepathy, among them ... technology wired into his helmet (the explanation given in the X-Men film series and several comic plotlines)

Por outro lado, existem fontes que reivindicam que , nos quadrinhos, ele instalou circuitos de controle mental em seu capacete, mas a resistência é toda natural ou o resultado de seus poderes:

Magneto seems to have some “natural” resistance to telepathic intrusion, and over time his force of will has augmented his natural and learned telepathic defenses. In the past, Magneto has also shown himself capable of Astral Travel and passive empathic sensitivity.

....

During the Silver Age, Magneto did install technology into his helmet which allowed him to control other's minds. This was seen in (Uncanny) X-Men #18, and again the X-Men vs. Avengers miniseries in 1987. However, there is no hint or statement in the 616 that Magneto inserted tech into his helmet to block telepathic attacks, nor has he ever seemed concerned when his helmet is removed in a telepath's presence.

A Marvel Wikia afirma que o capacete o protege:

The helmet Magneto wears may be what contributes to his ability to resist all but the strongest or most unexpected of telepathic attacks, achieved due to technology wired into the helmet itself.

Também parece ser canônico explícito nas continuidades Fox, Marvel 1602 e Ultimate que é o seu capacete que fornece a resistência.
