Written by Tim Seeley (Local Man) and illustrated by Zulema Scotto Lavina, this issue, released February 26, 2025, continues Rogue’s powerless odyssey in the Savage Land. Rogue, alongside Zabu, races to rescue Ka-Zar amid dinosaurs, mutates, and a mysterious new god threatening the land. Magneto’s timely aid saves them from savage creatures, but tensions flare as Rogue and Zabu break off alone, questioning their allies’ motives. Set during Uncanny X-Men #269, #274–275, the story deepens Rogue’s resilience and Magneto’s complex role, with the Savage Land Mutates as looming threats. Amanda Conner’s variant cover, known for her playful yet dynamic style, elevates this issue’s appeal.
The Amanda Conner Variant, a retailer-exclusive cover, retails at $3.99 but commands $15–$40 in NM (Near Mint) condition on eBay, driven by Conner’s fanbase and the series’ hype. CGC 9.8 graded copies fetch $70–$150, reflecting strong demand for her distinctive art. By comparison, the Kaare Andrews Cover A sells for $10–$25 NM, while the 1:100 J. Scott Campbell Virgin Variant reaches $200–$400. The Conner variant offers a sweet spot of exclusivity and affordability compared to rarer incentives like the 1:25 Stephen Platt Variant ($40–$80).
Rogue’s skyrocketing popularity, fueled by X-Men ’97 and potential MCU appearances, positions this series for growth. Amanda Conner’s variants consistently appreciate, often rising 50–100% within 1–3 years, as seen with her Harley Quinn covers ($50–$200 NM). By 2027, NM copies of this variant could hit $40–$80, and CGC 9.8 copies may reach $150–$300, especially with X-Men ’97 Season 2 (2025) amplifying Rogue’s visibility. Limited supply due to grading delays (expected July 2025) and growing demand for Savage Land keys could further boost prices.
The Rogue: The Savage Land #2 Amanda Conner Variant combines affordability, artistic prestige, and narrative weight. Conner’s collectible cachet and the series’ ties to Rogue’s iconic arc make it a standout. Ideal for collectors seeking a vibrant key or investors betting on X-Men’s resurgence, this issue offers strong upside. Grab it now to capitalize on Rogue’s rising star and Conner’s market draw!
