Beast (Dr. Henry Philip "Hank" McCoy) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics and is a founding member of the X-Men. Originally called "The Beast", the character was introduced as a mutant possessing ape-like superhuman physical strength and agility, oversized hands and feet, a genius-level intellect, and otherwise normal appearance and speech. Eventually being referred to simply as "Beast", Hank McCoy underwent progressive physiological transformations, permanently gaining animalistic physical characteristics. These include blue fur, both simian and feline facial features, pointed ears, fangs, and claws. Beast's physical strength and senses increased to even greater levels. Despite Hank McCoy's inhuman appearance, he is depicted as a brilliant, well-educated man in the arts and sciences, known for his witty sense of humor, and characteristically uses barbed witticisms with long words and intellectual references to distract his foes.[1] He is a world authority on biochemistry and genetics, the X-Men's medical doctor, and the science and mathematics instructor at the Xavier Institute (the X-Men's headquarters and school for young mutants). He is also a mutant political activist, campaigning against society's bigotry and discrimination against mutants. While fighting his own bestial instincts and fears of social rejection, Beast dedicates his physical and mental gifts to the creation of a better world for man and mutant. One of the original X-Men, Beast has appeared regularly in X-Men-related comics since his debut. He has also been a member of the Avengers and Defenders. The character has also appeared in media adaptations, including animated TV series and feature films. In X2 (2003), Steve Bacic portrayed him in a very brief cameo in his human appearance while in X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) he was played by Kelsey Grammer. Nicholas Hoult portrayed a younger version of the character in X-Men: First Class (2011). Both Hoult and Grammer reprised their roles in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014). Hoult also reprised the role in X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) and Dark Phoenix (2019), and had a cameo in Deadpool 2 (2018).

With Magneto now free and joining the Hellfire Club, Xavier and his X-Men are on high alert for what this means, certain that he will not be pleased and will make a move. Alongside Mystique, who has recruited Blob, Avalanche, and Toad, Magneto completes his recruitment, bringing to his side the Maximoff twins, a speedster and his sister capable of altering the probability of chaos, Wanda and Pietro Maximoff. Ready to confront Xavier's X-Men, Magneto and his Brotherhood of Mutants rise up to prove Magneto's point that mutants are superior and the next step in evolution. Unable to just stand by, Xavier mobilizes his X-Men to stop them, but Magneto was already expecting this, leaving his great rival and friend incapacitated. This time, perhaps the X-Men aren't capable, perhaps they weren't enough, Xavier's dream vision wasn't able to change things for the mutants, perhaps it's time to try Magneto's form. Things get even more complicated when Magneto reveals his trump card, the mutant Angel, leaving what's left of the team even more shaken. Without his mentor, Cyclops takes command as leader of both the institute and the X-Men, having the duty to keep them united and safe. A heavy burden, but one he doesn't have to bear alone. The X-Men work to prevent an all-out war between humans and mutants, as the actions of Magneto and his Brotherhood lead in that direction, as the Hellfire Club desired. Without Professor Xavier, everything falls on the shoulders of the X-Men, the burden of keeping the dream alive, of showing that they are no longer students, nor children.
