Real Name: Dr. Henry McCoy

Born in Dundee, Illinois, Hank's mutation was obvious from birth, when he was born with abnormally large hands and feet. Picked on as a child for his deformities, Hank gained admoration as a teenager when he joined his high school's football team, and became the star quarterback. When his parents were kidnapped by a villain called El Conquistador, Hank was blackmailed into assisting the villains in his crimes, until Professor X helped rescue Hank's parents. Once given the full details about his mutation, Hank accepted the Professor's invitation to join the X-Men. After leaving the X-Men, Hank pursued his dream of being a scientist, and worked for the Brand Corporation. While there, he developed a hormone extract that allowed a person to gain mutant powers for brief periods of time, but circumstances beyond his control forced him to test the hormone on himself, resulting in his current form. For a while, Beast was a solo superhero, working with other heroes such as Spider-Man and Iron Man, and eventually joined the Avengers, then lead the Defenders for awhile, but ultimately returned to the X-Men. Despite his appearance, Hank is one of the most whilerespected scientists in the world.
