Age of Apocalypse, Henry McCoy matured to adulthood in
a hostile environment where only the fit survived. Further mutating
himself to gain both strength and agility he was notorious for his cruelty
and penchant for using other mutants in his unethical experiments.
Learning of the X-Men's plot to alter the present by
traveling into the past, McCoy followed them and secretly worked from the
sewers of New York planning and plotting as the Dark Beast. |
