    I can't be mad at Beast for being a selfish traitor anymore just like I can't be mad at Wanda for being a crazy lunatic who'll never be brought to justice anymore. I'm willing to forgive him his sins if he goes back to being the fun, lovable fleabag of Science he used to be.

    Hank isn't Beast. Who is Hank? I don't know. I just made that up, but...it's a good question. There's a difference, but how's Hank gonna 'take off' that...Beast uniform, now...and would he?

    X-Factor #50 Jan 1990
    Judgement War Part 7 of 7: "Judgement Day"
    As the Celestials stand over the city of the Chosen as part of their final judgement of this alien world,
    the combined forces of X-Factor, the Rejects and the Beginagainst battle against the soldiers of the Chosen.
    As the battle rages, Lord Rask clashes with Princess Seera, who is aided by Lev.
    However, the two women are blasted back and after a brief clash with Archangel, Rask blasts the winged mutant aside as well.
    Rushing to Lord Palik, Palik reveals that he had figured out Rask's plot to use his winnings from the battle between Archangel
    and Iceman to buy a place as one of the highest of the Chosen and reveals his part in causing this plan to come crashing down.
    He then goads Rask to once more jump into the battle and fight Iceman, who easily knocks him aside.

    As the battle rages on, Cyclops leads another group of Rejects and Beginagains through the city
    in the hopes of finding Marvel Girl and Christopher and a means of shutting down the Chosen's power supply.
    Blasting their way into a science lab, they force a science robot to tell them where they might find the two Scott is seeking.
    The robot briefly reactivates the memory banks of the ruined robot Zee-Zee
    to show where MG is being kept and provides them with a map of how to get there.
    While back at the arena, the Reject/X-Factor/Beginagain coalition is gaining the upper hand
    forcing the Chosen to order their Dueler cast to enter the arena and fight on their behalf.
    At first the Duelers comply, but they are convinced by Lev to turn against those
    who have treated them as secondary citizens and help fight their rebellion.
    This earns the ire of Lord Palik who orders everyone in the arena to be eliminated once and for all.

    Meanwhile, Scott and the others find Christopher and Marvel Girl.
    Upon freeing Jean, Scott finds that her Phoenix/Madelyne Pryor personalities are dominant,
    with Jean's mind being submerged following her run in with a jammer.
    However, Scott's love for Jean manages to help her push her personality out of hiding
    and she joins the group in finding the power supply for the Chosen's city and shut it down.

    This causes the grid that keeps everyone in the arena to shut down and chaos to explode in the arena.

    As the battle rages on Dykon manages to climb up into the stands
    and battle Palik who uses his powers to partially blind the Beginagain.

    This doesn't stop him from grabbing Palik and threatening to kill him when Seera
    convinces him to spare Palik because if Palik is killed Dykon's vision can not be restored.
    Dykon gives Palik a choice: restore his and Archangel's vision or die.

    With his vision restored, Archangel renews his attack on Rask and in the moment of fury,
    slays the would-be ruler of the Chosen with his razor sharp feathers.
    Scott and the others arrive at the scene as well as Zharkah with a group of Reject warriors and Reyest with the other Beginagain Elders.
    With the leaders of all three races gathered, they all begin to realize that the Celestials are beginning to make their final judgement.
    With Arishem preparing to give his thumbs-up/thumbs-down judgement, Ship arrives to take X-Factor to safety.
    However the group refuses to abandon this planet or its people for their own safety and turn Christopher over Ship to take away just in case.

    Seeing that strangers from another world would be willing to sacrifice their lives to save their world,
    the leaders of the Rejects, Beginagains and Chosen all agree to work together to try and stop the Celestials.
    When Reyest detects a great cosmic power in Marvel Girl, she tries to use the remaining power of Phoenix Force in her to channel against the Celestials.
    Afraid to unleash this power alone, MG channels it through Cyclops who fires a massive optic blast at Arishem's hand, obliterating it.
    This seems to be the course of action the Celestials were hoping for, as as soon
    as Arishem was made incapable of judging the planet, the Celestials flee the scene.
    Marvel Girl is happy to find that the two other personalities had merged with the rest of her mind leaving her fully Jean Grey.
    As the Celestials leave in their massive ship, they drop another device like X-Factor's ship to record this world's progress.

    With the road to peace beginning between the three tribes of this world, X-Factor bids farewell to their leaders.
    Before they leave, Archangel and Ship have a gift for Seera: Zee-Zee, repaired and restored to her former sentient glory.
    X-Factor then heads off into space, glad to be heading back home.
    Just before they shoot off into hyperspace, they pass the Starjammer. Not recognizing the ship, Ship speeds off,
    unaware that its passengers were in close proximity with their former leader Charles Xavier on the other ship.
    Despite Xavier's deathly state, he detects his original students.
    However when Lilandra and Sikorsky come to his aid, they wonder if Xavier truly did connect with his
    former students or if they were merely just hallucinations brought on by his continued deterioration.

    A thought just struck me today...as they are wont to do...how much of Beast's physical appearance is his x-gene and how much is outside factors influencing his appearance?

    So...he leaves the X-Men and goes to work for the Brand Corporation (a subsidiary or Roxxon) and creates a serum that acted as a catalyst for activating latent mutation and takes it to prevent it being stolen. Several years later he gets Artie's dad's 'mutant cure' that takes him back to his 'normal' appearance. Then he gets whammied by Pestilence with that whole 'the more he uses his strength the stronger he gets...and the dumber he gets as well'. Then....yes, there's more...he get liplocked by Infectia and it undoes the dumbness, and the cure that made him not hairy.

    Seems to be a lot going on with regards to outside influences acting on his body. So if he was to die...and they resurrected him using an old DNA sample the he either saved all this time or took from young Hank when the original X-Men were brought forward in time would he get a new lease on life without having to worry about being blue and furry and could just be 'normal' looking Doctor Hank McCoy??

    That would depend on if the Five wanted him to be. They bring a person back at their peak optimal levels and Beast is supposed to be more powerful in his current form. We know that at some level his DNA is responsible bc Sage was able to jump his secondary mutation which gave him his feline form. I could see the case for him being brought back in human form but why would they? Being blue and furry is his iconic imagery and makes him stand out than being another generic white male with super strength

    We have also seen that he does not like his blue furry form. He even contemplated taking the cure that Dr Rao came up with. Hank himself may want to regain his original appearance.

    I could care about the appearance, I want him back to the fun personality he had as an Avenger, when Wonder Man was his bestie. All this mutant angst is a bad look for him.

    I think Hank thinks he's right. When he does something, it's justified, even if he tore Scott and Logan a new one. Times have changed for him. He has to believe that everything he's done and suffered for was worth it.

    And that includes all the horrible things he's going to do, including to former allies.

    Personally...I would like 'human' looking Hank back...with the fun loving personality.

    ... I guess he'll never be an Avenger again. It's all too bad.

    I like him best in the 90s cartoon where he’s just a big ol’ teddy bear. The 2000s made him too edgy but I think Percy is doing a good job of making the years of inconsistent characterization seem like a personality trait.

    That’s my favorite Beast as well.. it’s the personality that went with that look is what I miss the most, but I can’t see the current Beast (and DEFINITELY not the stupid lion Beast) being happy go lucky like he was in those days.
