Beast (Henry "Hank" McCoy) is one of the founding members of the X-Men and one of the Marvel Universe's greatest scientific minds. Born with unusually large hands and feet due to his mutation, he later transformed himself into his iconic blue-furred form through a scientific experiment. Despite his intimidating appearance, Hank is a compassionate scholar who believes knowledge and reason can bridge the gap between humans and mutants. His combination of extraordinary intellect and superhuman athleticism makes him an invaluable hero and mentor.
