Where did Caliban come from?
In the movie Logan we can see Caliban along with Charles and Logan. But Caliban was last seen in X-Men Apocalypse. How was he particularly chosen to be in Logan? And why wasn't he affected because of Charles uncontrollable mind because every other mutant was dead by his doing.
Best Answer
It has been a while since I watched Logan, but (as I recall) Charles Xavier's "mindquakes":
- Affect Mutants and Non-Mutants equally - and humanity is not extinct
- Have a limited sphere of influence (although, theoretically, this would effectively vanish with Cerebro)
It is then not a case that "every other mutant was dead by his doing" - rather, the mutants (and non-mutants) who were in his vicinity at the time were affected and, in the incident you are referencing, died. This presumably includes the X-Men, and students at the School.
(Assuming that either he was still the headmaster, or the school was still based out of his ancestral home)

They had ended up on the island and Prospero had turned the only inhabitant, Caliban, a deformed and savage creature, into his slave. Caliban's mother, now dead, was expelled from Algiers for being a witch. Already pregnant, she gave birth to Caliban on the island. He has known nothing else.Where did the name Caliban come from?
The name Caliban is boy's name of Romanian origin meaning "black". In Shakespeare's The Tempest, Caliban is the name of the deformed son of a witch: not the greatest literary reference for a child. But Caliban does have an appealing international-yet-accessible feel and a rhythmic sound.Caliban Character Analysis
