6) Greenwood Cemetery And Logan’s License Plate
It turns out that scene that was used in the trailers, of Logan drinking while attending a funeral, was not what it seemed. He was actually only there as a driver. Still, there are a couple of easter eggs hidden throughout here to keep it significant.
For one, the funeral occurs at Greenwood Cemetery. As well as a real-world location in Brooklyn, it’s also appeared in several Marvel comics including Deadpool and Fantastic Four. It might be a coincidence, but a couple of the gravestones in the cemetery read ‘Peters’ and ‘Rogers.’ Are these some grim references to Quicksilver actor Evan Peters and Captain America himself, Steve Rogers, or just coincidences? You can decide.
Meanwhile, the license plate of Logan’s Chrysler limo is also of interest: WER112. It’s most likely that it’s a nod to Wolverine #112, which sees a lonely Logan feeling guilty for his role in Professor X’s transformation into the evil Onslaught. Swap Onslaught for the mysterious Westchester incident, and you have the plot of the movie.
