Biography

Logan

Donald Pierce worked for the Transigen Project as leader of a paramilitary force called the Reavers. He headed security for the Transigen project to create new mutants such as X-23. When Gabriella Lopez escaped with X-23, Pierce was sent to track her down. His investigation led him to Logan; he was sure that Gabriella was seeking to contact Logan for help and asked for his help.

Pierce led a combined force of Reavers and federal police to apprehend X-23 when she was discovered to be hiding at Logan's hideout in Mexico where he lived with the ailing Charles Xavier and Caliban. Pierce led the operation to track down Logan, Xavier, and X-23 when they fled the compound and headed north.

Several days into the chase, Pierce led the Reavers in the capture operation against the children who escaped from the Transigen project. After having his bionic hand destroyed by Logan, he released X-24 to fight him. Pierce was overwhelmed by the children using their combined abilities and was killed.

  • Trivia

    • Boyd Holbrook, Pierce's actor said that he is a big fan of Wolverine as well, noting the fact that Pierce "just wants to hang out with him Wolverine".[1]
    • In the comics, Donald Pierce was a high-ranking member of the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club, where he holds the position of White Bishop. Many months later Pierce formed the Reavers, a band of cyborg criminals which Pierce claims to have built and assembled, and allied himself and his group with Lady Deathstrike. Under Pierce's leadership, the new Reavers are dedicated to exterminating mutants.
    • During the film's promotion, Mister Sinister was thought to be the main antagonist of Logan, but James Mangold said that he would not contain Mister Sinister in the film, a choice he had to keep the film's grounded style, which means that Donald Pierce himself is the primary antagonist of Logan.[2]
