Synopsis for 1st story

The Handbook provides character histories and power descriptions for Marvel's characters.

Notes

The entry for the Beast has a main image of him in his blue, furry form, but by the time the series was collected in TPB form, he had resumed his more humanoid form in X-Factor Vol 1. The image was altered for the reprint. Mark Gruenwald's editorial in issue 6 would reveal that he had opted not to reveal the upcoming change to Beast in this issue.
