Srs Question Is Srs ("X-Men")

When you hear "Charles Xavier", the first image that flashes through your mind is

X-Men: First Class   OR   Marvel Comics

And when you hear "Erik Lehnsherr" (/Magneto) do you think about this guy
Marvel Comics (Tm-Semic)  OR  

In my case, comicverse (so - white-haired but not necessarily shirtless) Magneto is definitely my first association. When I read fics or prompts this version of Erik is the one that comes to my mind and usually stays there (even if "brown eyes" or "sharky teeth" are mentioned XD). As far as Charles is concerned, his comicverse version is also the first, but then my imagination does a backflip, shows movieverse!Xavier and stays inbetween James McAvoy and comicverse!Charles (which is kinda tricky, 'cause these two guys aren't similar at all) :D

In both cases comic!verse. Even when I read fics for First Class, I have to remind myself that I'm reading movie fanfic and not comicbook fanfic, because at first I keep picturing Magneto and avier from comic books XDDDD
