This may seem irrelevant, but I was thinking that there are some parents 
who don't let their children read Harry Potter, but will let them 
read series such as the X-Men. Both of which have similarities. Such as

-Feature ones with "Super Powers" (wizard,mutants)
-Have people who fear/hate/misuderstand(Dursleys,muggles,humans)
-Have a school where the young ones learn to use their powers
(Hogwarts, Xaiver school for gifted youngsters)
-Have a father-like Professor(Dumbledore,Xaiver)
-Have ones who misuse their powers and use it hurt others
(Voldemort,Magneto,Death eaters,brotherhood of evil mutants)
-Have heros who use their power for good and to stop the "evil ones" 
for world domination.(Harry, Order of the Phoenix, X-men)
-Feature orphans(Harry,Cyclops,and others with a troubled past)

In conclusion, I am a fan of both series, and others in the similar 
genra.
