Old Man Logan is an alternative version of the superhero Wolverine appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. This character is an aged version of Wolverine set in an alternate future universe in which the supervillains overthrew the superheroes. Created by writer Mark Millar and artist Steve McNiven, the character first appeared in a storyline of the same name, which ran in Wolverine (Vol 3) #66–72 (June 2008 – June 2009) and which concluded in Wolverine Giant-Size Old Man Logan #1 (November 2009).
After the 2014 "Death of Wolverine" storyline, Laura Kinney took the Wolverine mantle but an Old Man Logan from the similar alternate universe was brought in to serve as an X-Man, and featured in his own ongoing series.[1]
Old Man Logan was one of the inspirations for the 2017 film Logan, starring Hugh Jackman as the title character.[2] The character later made a cameo appearance as Old Man Logan in the 2024 Marvel Cinematic Universe film Deadpool & Wolverine.[3]
