The Best Mr. X Memes

Resident Evil 2 released to high praise from critics who called it the gold standard for survival horror in 2019.

The mix of Mr. X's intimidating presence and silly appearance makes him perfect for memes, the Resident Evil franchise's answer to Thanos or Emperor Palpatine. Here are some of our favorite memes about the cloaked menace.
