Upcoming Marvel Comic Book Will Revisit Rogue’s Relationship with Magneto

As a seasoned gamer and Marvel Comics aficionado with over two decades of reading under my belt, I can confidently say that the upcoming “Rogue: Savage Land” series has piqued my interest like none other! The prospect of delving back into the classic X-Men universe, particularly the intricate relationship between Rogue and Magneto, is a tantalizing proposition.


Although the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is primarily concentrating on bringing back Robert Downey Jr. as Victor Von Doom, one of Marvel’s most formidable antagonists, it’s worth noting that Marvel’s comic books are independently moving forward. The narratives we cherish are being developed and expanded upon in these comics, a subject that will be central to this report as well.

The story we’ll be delving into is centered around Rogue, a key character from the upcoming Marvel series. Specifically, Marvel has announced a new series called “Rogue: Savage Land,” where the iconic mutant, Rogue, will revisit Savage Land.

On the other hand, the upcoming series penned by Tim Seeley delves into an intriguing angle – a topic that stirs much debate. Specifically, this series revisits the complex connection between Rogue and Magneto, a romance that has been one of the most contentious aspects in the X-Men comic book history, promising a thrilling exploration for readers.

The serialization commences on September 15, 2024, marking the start later today. We are certain that it is penned by Tim Seeley (known for “Venom War: Wolverine”) and features the debut of new artist Zulema Lavina in Marvel Comics. The narrative will revisit the initial setting conceived by Chris Claremont and Jim Lee, specifically Uncanny X-Men #269 and #274-275. In this classic storyline, Rogue ventured into Savage Land where she embarked on a deep romance with Magneto and uncovered a new world. Given these circumstances, the upcoming series is characterized as follows:

In a new challenge, even for the resilient X-Man known as Rogue, survival is more crucial than ever without her mutant abilities. With the Savage Land on the brink of conflict, Rogue must employ all her talents to endure against dinosaurs, mutated creatures, and Magnetism’s Master himself!

In a recent interview, Tim Seely said the following about the comic book:

Over these five projects, I’ll have the chance to showcase my passion for 80s X-Men, artists like Jim Lee and Chris Claremont, characters such as Zabu, and the dynamic duo of scantily clad heroes (and heroines!), not forgetting the key element: dinosaurs. Working alongside collaborator Zulema Lavina, we aim to create something innovative while staying true to the original, steamy, and epic story of a young Rogue, as well as her unusual companions: Magneto and Ka-Zar.

Lavina, the artist, also added the following:

Following my victory at the Marvel Art Atelier, I was still wrapping my head around how incredible this opportunity was. Then, I was asked to illustrate a limited Rogue series, which instantly captivated me. It’s a joy to collaborate with Tim Seeley once more, and I hope readers will find this remarkable story as enthralling as I do. Rogue is a character brimming with empathy and determination, the Savage Land setting is iconic, the narrative is filled with unpredictable twists and turns – I can hardly wait for you to delve into it!
