Page "Savage Land" Paragraph 53

In the Ultimate Marvel comics, the Savage Land is a large island somewhere in the southern hemisphere.

It was originally said to have been created by Magneto, using theories and methods developed by Professor X, as the site for genetic experiments.

Magneto's goal there was to create a new human race who would be less trouble to rule than the current one, that he decided to re-start evolution from scratch, and control the process to his own specifications.

As a result of this, at its current level of advancement, it has dinosaurs and that Magneto has shown no further interest in advancing the evolution of the Savage Land.

It has remained in its dinosaur state since the departure of Professor X.

This story is later revealed as false ( see below ).
