Dark Beast became this person because there was no one around to stop him (Charles Xavier was dead). This is exactly what happened when Krakoa was founded. Without anyone to keep him in check, Hank McCoy of Earth-616 slowly became him. In a year, Hank McCoy could be a fully-fledged villain.
In the name of national security for Krakoa, Beast has abandoned his morals and embraced an ideology of 'the most good for the most mutants', regardless of the actions that lead to that conclusion. The former Avenger has resorted to monstrous acts, and has even embraced murder as a viable tactic.
Despite all this, Beast still sees himself as a hero. Hank narrates Wolverine #31, which gives us some insight into his motivations. “What I did was only bad if you're caught up in a moral philosophy that is ultimately pointless,” Beast says. During his monologue, he tries to justify his experiments on Wolverine.
An original member of the X-Men, Hank McCoy, AKA Beast is one of the smartest characters in the Marvel Universe. Although the hero started out as a lighthearted and kind mutant, he has performed a series of morally questionable actions over the years, especially during the Krakoan Era.
The Enchantress placed a powerful spell upon the kingdom, turning the Prince into a beast and the servants into animated household objects, while also wiping all memory of the castle from the nearby village's inhabitants.
Let's Talk About Why DARK BEAST is Already on KRAKOA in X-Force #34
Why was Beast cursed?
A prince by birth, he was cursed by a mysterious Enchantress as punishment for his selfish and cruel nature; only by loving another and earning their love in return can the Beast free himself and those affected by the spell before time runs out.
Later, he drank an experimental solution of his own making and mutated further through the growth of grey fur covering his entire body and the enhancement of all of his existing abilities, especially his strength, and Hank also gained a nearly instantaneous healing factor.
His super strength and agility have served him pretty well over the years but he's just not strong enough to really do anything to the Hulk. His acrobatic fighting style would allow him to keep ahead of the Hulk for a time but it just wouldn't be enough.
Beast is Stronger than Wolverine's Adamantium, & Cyclops Proves It. In Factor X #3 by John Francis Moore, Steve Epting, and Terry Dodson, readers are thrown into the alternate reality of the Age of Apocalypse through the perspective of one of Apocalypse's henchmen, Cyclops.
Hulk, easily. Beast is a brilliant scientist and he is very strong and agile compared to a human. He's definitely more agile than Hulk and could probably dodge his attacks for a little while.
Not only did Beast choose to clone Wolverine in order to create a new army, but narration in Wolverine #32 (by Benjamin Percy, Juan Jose Ryp, and Frank D'Armata) gives readers Beast's inner monologue revealing his thoughts on his actions.
With little hesitation, Beast rips out and crushes his own eye to kill the last remaining Doll. Beast's willingness to harm another mutant and mutilate himself highlights how far he is willing to go to protect Krakoa.
While McCoy famously didn't have his fur when he debuted in Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's X-Men #1 in 1963, an experimental formula radically transformed Beast, bestowing the mutant scientist with gray fur which later became blue before changing in even stranger ways.
A brilliant student, McCoy completed his doctoral studies and finally left the X-Men and Professor Xavier's school to take a position as a genetic researcher with the Brand Corporation, a division of Roxxon Oil. There he began working with Dr. Carl Maddicks and started a romance with his assistant, Linda Donaldson.
He starts developing inner beauty, and she starts to fall for him. But then she learns that her father is in danger, and wishes to leave. This is a pivotal moment for the Beast: will he release her? He chooses to let her go.
In both versions of Beauty and the Beast, the pesky curse that trapped the Beast in his animal form is eventually broken. When Belle sobs over his injured body, her tears deactivate the spell. With proof that he can love and be loved in return, the Beast is magically returned to the human race.
He has been helping to beat Magneto since he was a teenager, battling him alongside his teammates in the X-Men. While Beast's powers weren't exactly crucial in the battle against Magneto, he did still help the X-Men win.
The difference between Beta Mutants and Alpha Mutants is that the Beta Mutants have flaws, albeit very small flaws. The Beta mutants are also believed to be about 10% of the mutant population. Some examples of Beta mutants are Beast, Angel, Wolverine, Mystique and Sabretooth.
Beast is faster and more acrobatic usually shown as throwing his entire body weight by a fingertip or toe. No holding back Beast fighting Wolverine would be like a boxer fighting someone with a sword. Beast can heal well but it's not mutant healing factor like Wolverine, Deadpool (technicalities there), or Sabertooth.
The Avengers and Fantastic Four died to stop him. During that ultimate sacrifice, Hulk also died. Jean Grey shut down Bruce Banner's brain, turning Hulk into a savage. The two ended up separated, and Hulk ended up in an irradiated cocoon, one that killed Hulk completely, which led to a new Hulk being horn.
Cyclops' brother, Havok, is one of the few Marvel superheroes who can defeat the Hulk in a fair fight. Alex Summers aka Havok may not be as popular as his more famous brother, but he is easily one of the most powerful mutants in the Marvel Universe.
An original member of the X-Men has taken on his darkest ultimate form, as Hank McCoy (Beast) becomes “the God of All Mutants.” In X-Force #40, Old Man Omega (Quentin Quire) sends the team forward in time, to a dark and dystopian future, ruled over by a founding member of the X-Men, who has declared themselves a god– ...
Hank is able for to create a prototype serum using Mystique's blood as its foundation, but instead of suppressing his mutation's cosmetic cells, it enhanced them, resulting in him looking like a blue, humanoid beast.
In that run, Beast started off in his blue furry form, but after he is captured by Tower, an experimented cure was used on him. With his new human form, Beast donned a new costume that was similar to his old red and blue costume, only now it had a red X on it, which he wore for a little while.
