Announced earlier today at Polygon, Rogue: The Savage Land will be written by Tim Seeley (Venom War: Wolverine) and drawn by new artist and Marvel Art Atelier winner Zulema Lavina in her Marvel Comics debut. The five-issue limited series will take fans back to Chris Claremont and Jim Lee’s Uncanny X-Men #269 and #274-275 where Rogue embarked on a wild journey in the Savage Land, began her passionate relationship with Magneto, and sported her tattered Savage Land look. It’s a pivotal chapter in Rogue’s history, and at long last, readers will experience the whole story.
JOURNEY INTO THE LOST WORLD WITH ROGUE, MAGNETO, KA-ZAR AND MORE!
The X-Man called Rogue has always been a survivor, but without her mutant powers she’ll need to prove it like never before! As the Savage Land turns towards war, Rogue will need all her skills to survive dinosaurs, mutates, and the Master of Magnetism himself!
“In these five issues, I get to utilize my love for 80s X-Men, Jim Lee, Chris Claremont, Zabu, scantily clad heroines (and heroes!) and probably most importantly: DINOSAURS,” Seeley told Polygon. “Alongside my collaborator Zulema Lavina, we’re going to deliver something fresh, while honoring the impossibly sexy and epic classic tale of a young Rogue, and two of the weirdest allies a girl from Mississippi could ask for: Magneto and Ka-Zar.”
