Superhero fans, lean in! You asked, “Who are the Mexican X-Men?” Let’s meet them—fast. Think big hearts, bold powers, and lots of corazón.

Short answer: The Mexican X-Men are Rictor and Velocidad. Two Mexican-American X-Men are Skin and Egg (Fabio Medina). In the movie Logan, Laura (X-23) also comes from a lab in Mexico. That’s the team we’re talking about today.

Meet the heroes (quick and clear)

• Rictor — A mutant from Mexico. He shakes the ground and rocks with his power over vibrations. He has worked with X-Factor, New Mutants, and X-Force. He is brave and loyal to his friends.
• Velocidad (Gabriel Cohuelo) — From Mexico City. He moves super fast by speeding up his own time. It makes him tired, but he keeps going to help his team.
• Skin (Angelo Espinosa) — A Mexican-American teen from East L.A. He has extra stretchable skin. He served with Generation X and learned to be a hero, not a thug.
• Egg (Fabio Medina) — A Mexican-American mutant. He makes golden “eggs” (they go “poink!”). On Krakoa, he helps the X-Men in a big way with a special team called the Five.

Rictor: the ground shaker

Rictor uses vibration powers to protect others. He has been on many X-teams. He stands up for family and friends. He shows that strength can also be gentle.

Velocidad: quick as a heartbeat

Gabriel runs fast by speeding up his personal time. It’s a cool power with a cost. He still steps up, saves lives, and brings hope to the team.

Skin: stretch, shield, protect

Angelo’s stretchy skin helps him grab, block, and save people. He learned that your past does not lock your future. He chose kindness and courage.

Egg: “poink” with purpose

Fabio’s golden spheres look funny, but they matter. He helps bring teammates back when things go bad. He shows that every gift has value.

Bonus: the movie twist

In the film Logan, Laura (X-23) comes from a lab in Mexico. She is fierce, smart, and brave. She fights to be free and to protect her friends.

Why this matters

These heroes show Mexican pride, heart, and hope. Kids can see themselves in capes and masks. That makes the world feel bigger and kinder.
