User blog:Captain alex/Why Beast Is Awesome

My all-time favorite character of Marvel is most definitely Beast of the X-Men (and later SWORD). Beast is a complex character of great intelligence, and even greater dignity. And I believe that Kelsey Grammar was one of the best actors possible to portray this nearly essential character of the X-Men mythology, as he played Dr. Frasier Ctane, who was also very culturally refined and educated.. Dr. Henry Mccoy first appeared in 1963 in X-Men #1, as one of the first members of the then-newly formed X-Men. Henry possessed simian-like attributes, and was thus codenamed "Beast". And so for these reasons, I see Beast as my favorite character of Marvel...Although Wolverine comes in a close second...Captain alex 07:35, July 17, 2010 (UTC)
