SPOILER WARNING: This article contains spoilers for "All-New Wolverine" #15, on sale now.
This guy might not be on your radar, and that's because while he's a classic bad guy for older X-readers, he's pretty obscure Wolverine villain for newer fans -- and that's "Wolverine" as in "Logan." A mutant (or possibly Asgardian, if he's to be believed) with superhuman physical abilities, Roughhouse is super strong and super durable and incredibly hard -- maybe impossible -- to kill. He worked alongside the vampiric Bloodscream as an enforcer for the crime bosses of Madripoor, and that's where Logan first encountered him. Roughhouse debuted in 1989's "Wolverine" #4 and the character made life hard for the titular hero for the next couple years. Following the end of his initial storyarc in 1990's "Wolverine" #23, though, he's popped up extremely infrequently. He appeared in a 2009 two-parter in "Avengers: The Initiative" and then again in 2012's "Wolverine" #304, but he's been missing ever since. He hasn't even appeared in the Madripoor-centric storylines of the last four years. That changes with "All-New Wolverine" #15, and Roughhouse is back in action.
After Roughhouse lands on the pirate ship, the next rogue makes her descent -- and this time it's a literal familiar face.
Bellona is another clone of Laura Kinney and one of Gabby's "sisters." Created by Alchemax Genetics, Wolverine's archenemy Kimura assisted in their escape -- thus making Bellona feel she owed the sadistic villain. Bellona was shown as siding with Kimura back in "All-New Wolverine" #6, and now Gabby and Laura know where their former ally stands.
With Roughhouse watching over a captive Gabby on the pirate ship, Bellona slaps manacles on Wolverine's wrists and they board the helicopter. Together they fly to Kimura's hideout, where Laura Kinney once again comes face to face with the woman that trained -- and tortured -- her.
Kimura sneers at Laura, degrading her and telling her that she's not the hero she's playing at being. "You're a weapon," she tells Wolverine. "And you're mine. You were alwaysmine." Kimura, holding another dose of the trigger scent, smiles and tells Wolverine that they're about to begin. With three villains teaming up against them this time around, Wolverine and Gabby are split up and outnumbered.
"All-New Wolverine" #16 arrives in stores on January 11, 2017.
