Summary
Erik would learn very quickly that there was no course of action he could take that would not be seen as an invitation to the human-run media to compare him to that vile little Austrian with the absurd facial-hair. It was like a compulsion with them. They could think within no other framework.
At first, it did not shock him; he'd found that such comparisons were cheap here. And initially there were very few people in the world who knew of the connection between the ringleader of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants' “terror cell” and poor little orphaned Erik Lehnsherr, one unremarkable victim among millions of others. He did not speak with an accent unless he wished to do so, and it took the media a long time to catch onto the fact that man who called himself Magneto was not a native Anglophone. He wore long-sleeves, and no one guessed.

"What was it like?" Sookie asked Bill one night.
"What was what like?" he parroted.
"Watching the world change! You've seen so much! You got to watch the whole 20th century happen. All those changes, like airplanes and presidents."
Bill remembers his travels across 20th century America and all the changes he has seen.
