We'll I honestly didn't expect he would appear just because he was only in the main series so briefly. Maybe someone can jog my memory was there anyone else that wasn't a mutant on magnetos guard?

Maybe Marvel thinks of Alpha Flight as being all mutants... Puck was in X-men, now Sasquatch in Magneto's world

Well in Hulk v2 sure seemed like they were implying Sasquatch was a mutant. We know it's not true, but you know....comics

I think while in Hulk v2 they were definitely focusing on the fact he had been gamma irradiated (which he has, even if it wasn't actually the source of his power) they weren't implying he was a mutant. And let's not even touch on the lupine thing from Wolverine

Sasquatch is, arguably, considered a mutate like Spider-Man. While it's not strictly true in a sense and while he's definitely not a mutant , he's nearer a homo-superior than he is a homo-sapien. That would be enough in Magneto's regime; Doom & Black Panther were given positions of power.

Puck was definitely not thought of as a mutant, apart from that one artwork slip-up in Uncanny Avengers where he was raptured where the Editors have admitted fault.

I'll have to pull out the issue but didn't a-bomb outright call them mutants except for snowbird?

black panther and doom were leaders of a country and already had that power before magneto took over. Was there anyone else more doing grunt work or in his inner circle?

[Phil]

The A-Bomb thing rings a bell actually so you're probably right. I don't think that's representative of the wider MU though, thankfully.

I don't believe there were any other non-mutants in his inner circle, but as I say the mutate thing swings it.
Or failing that, Sasquatch's greatest wish was to be a mutant.

[Le Messor]

It's a fairly common thing, too. There seems to be an idea that 'first appeared in X-Men' = mutant. (I've recently re-read an issue of New Warriors where they called Juggernaut a mutant. I can't think of an example, but it MUST have happened to Sauron, too.)

Wasn't quite sure where to put this, but there was also a Young Sasquatch in Giant Size Little Marvel: AvX #4 amongst the fight scene:

I missed him the first few times!

So cute!
He does kinda blend into the background there.
