10 Logan Easter Eggs You May Have Missed

Logan, Hugh Jackman's final stint in the role of Wolverine, is finally here and thankfully, it's everything we wanted it to be and more - with critics and audiences alike showering heaps of praise upon it. A stripped-back sombre take on the superhero genre, it's being called one of the finest comic book movies ever by many and that's a sentiment we wholeheartedly agree with.

Adamantium_Bullet_(Origins_-_Wolverine)

As well as calling back to the first X-Men movie, Logan also features some sly references to the two previous Wolverine solo outings.

First, an obvious one. Logan is seen holding his familiar dog tag at one point. It was given to him during his time in the Weapon X program in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and has been seen in several other movies, too. Origins is also referenced in the adamantium bullet that Logan carries around with him. The bullet previously appeared in that movie, where it was criticized by fans for being nonsensical (why would an adamantium bullet hurt him more than a regular one?). It was a brave choice to return to the idea here, then, but it’s another nice way of bringing things full circle.

Finally, The Wolverine is also referenced in a much more subtle way. At Logan, Charles and Caliban’s home in the Mexican desert, a samurai sword can be seen hanging on the hero’s bedroom wall. This harkens back to the Samurai-themed 2013 movie, which was also directed by James Mangold.
