Question
hi

can you settle an argument for me and my sons? Did the Beast ever have a
tail? or indeed does he have one now?

thanks

Chris

Answer
Hi Chris -

Sure no problem!  

I have been a fan of the X-Men (Beast's debut comic team) and the Avengers (a team he spent several years with) and the Defenders (another team he joined) for more than thirty years.

In all that time I have never seen Beast with a tail.  One or the other of you might be thinking of Nightcrawler, a member of the X-Men with blue skin and a tail who looks similar to Beast, but who is a different mutant.

Hope that helps, thanks for using the site and let me know if you have any other questions!

Expertise

I am an expert on the storylines of most DC and Marvel comics particularly the X-Men, Justice League and most Marvel comics of the 70's, 80's and early 90's. The characters with which I am the most familiar are Daredevil, Iron Man, Batman, and the Avengers. I am a rabid Green Lantern fan as well and would put that as one of my favorite things in life! One thing I won't do is estimate the value of a comic book, if that is what you need check out www.comicspriceguide.com

Experience

I have collected comic books for 36 years and have close relatives in the industry who helped shape the direction of comics in the early seventies.
