    Default Most Powerful With The Title Of 'Beast'

    In honor of 666 pages in Rumbles (post 2015 reboot), I pose a question:

    What is the most powerful fictional being with the title (or name) of 'The Beast'?

    Fiction has quite a few beings who use this moniker. But who is strongest?

    Present your choice!

    Edit: Forgot my Nod to Beadle, so I'll put it here. *nods to Beadle*

    Should we include "The Beast" from the book of revelation, or is that not ok?

    The Beast from that one Doctor Who two-parter was implied to be very powerful, and had a corrupting influence. But it didn't really do anything.

    Rumbles with religions currently in use are usually a no-go. I'd avoid that.

    Then avoid it we shall.

    Checking Wikipedia, here's a list of fictional characters called the Beast:
    The Beast in William Golding's Lord of the Flies
    The Beast in the Poltergeist film series
    The main antagonist of Kung Fu Hustle
    The main antagonist of the first season of The Magicians
    The Beast, from the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast
    The Beast (Disney), from the 1991 animated Disney film Beauty and the Beast
    The Beast, from the miniseries Over the Garden Wall
    The Beast, from the Doctor Who 2-part story episodes "The Impossible Planet" and "The Satan Pit"
    The Beast, an Ork Warboss from Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 universe
    The Beast, a split personality of the character Kevin Wendell Crumb and an antagonist in M. Night Shyamalan's 2016 film Split.
    Beast (comics), originally known as The Beast.

    I would be surprised if this is all of them.

    The Dr Who one was pretty tough.

    Marvel 616 Beast or Dark Beast would top or come close to topping the list with prep.

    Beast Man from Masters of the Universe, and Battle Beast from Invincible are sad.

    But Brock Lesnar should make the list (albeit not at the powerful end).

    Was he? I don't remember him doing much besides screaming at the Doctor. It was implied to be very powerful though.

    Would Dark Beast be allowed since he's not just The Beast? Actually, are people with more than Beast in their name allowed here?

    Does Battle Beast from Invincible come into play here

    Battle Beast is going to be pretty tough in a raw punch up. I'd figure that Marvel Beast or Dark Beast could handle him easily with prep.

    If we start to allow "things" rather than just "beasts", well, we can add in The Thing that Cries in the Night.*

    Am I pandering to OP? You bet I am.

    There is the Great Evil Beast from DC, who is the dark aspect of the Presence. Spectre tried to stop it and it didn’t even notice him.

    The Beast of the East is going to hand out like 17 Suplexes and 3 F5s to each other competitor before they even get going.


    What Brock thinks refreshing his browser page will do, I'm not sure. But he likes doing it.


    (man, I am just layering these references today. )
    The MunchKING is Back! And he is AWSOME!
