Alternative versions of Beast

Beast (Henry Philip "Hank" McCoy) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The Marvel Universe features an undisclosed number of alternate realities in what they describe as the Multiverse, with several of those worlds featuring an alternate version of Hank McCoy. McCoy is often referred to as "Beast" in those alternate realities, although it is not always the case. His appearance in the various universe varies from appearing like a normal human being to various feral forms of the blue furred "Beast" version.

While the main Beast from the universe designated Earth-616 is a scientist, a super hero and a member of the Avengers (comics) and the X-Men (comics) some of the alternate reality McCoys are portrayed as the opposite, such as the Dark Beast from the "Age of Apocalypse" alternate reality where he is an evil geneticist. In other realities McCoy was not known under the name "Beast" or had mutated to the point where he was no longer intelligent but instead a savage beast.

Morlocks (comics)

The Morlocks are a group of several fictional mutant characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The characters are usually depicted as being associated with the X-Men in the Marvel Universe. Created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Paul Smith, they were named after the subterranean race of the same name in H. G. Wells' novel The Time Machine. They first appeared as a group in Uncanny X-Men #169 (May 1983). (Caliban appeared prior to that (in Uncanny X-Men #148), but he was not yet a member of the Morlocks.)

Due to a series of tragedies, the original Morlocks no longer reside in subterranean New York City (except Marrow, who was one of the original Morlocks as a child), although a violent splinter cell Gene Nation and a comparable group called Those Who Live in Darkness have emerged. Similar groups, called Morlocks by readers and/or the X-Men themselves, have appeared under Chicago and London.

The Morlocks appeared occasionally in the 1990s X-Men animated series and its successor X-Men: Evolution.
