Spoilers for Logan ahead.

The newest X-Men movie features a pint-sized pugilist. Her name is X-23—people call her Laura—and she's Wolverine's mini-me, claws and all. She slaughters men many times her size, with help from the two claws that protrude from her hands (one less than Logan's three) and one that protrudes from each of her feet.

Logan, out March 3, might be Hugh Jackman's final outing as Wolverine, but X-23 could be the future of the X-Men franchise.
