Neat cover. The concept seems a little overbaked (Last Comic Hero?) but it could be interesting.
Maybe Skurge the Executioner will show up?

Er, hey…wasn’t Magneto helmetless and not a villain in 1985?

Mark I.: Shhh. You’re ruining it…

Ah, the good ol’ days. Back before Spidey made deals with the devil and Iron Man was a tool …

I’m as nostalgic as any comic fan, but this seems a bit forced. Didn’t they already do Secret Wars II?
Still, a cool cover….

In 1985 Magneto was still a bad guy - Secret Wars (the first series) was still being published, and during that series, although he was placed in the side of the heroes, he was still considered a villain. After Secret Wars 2 Magneto officially joined the side of the angels.
