This week, we’re absolutely geeking out because we’re joined by George Buza, the legendary voice of Beast from X-Men: The Animated Series and X-Men ‘97! We talk all things Hank McCoy, his return to the role, and dive into Beauty and the Beast #2, where Beast and Dazzler’s short-lived romance takes a wild turn into gladiator-style chaos.
George shares stories from his time voicing Beast, what it’s like stepping back into the X-Men universe after all these years, and his thoughts on the complex, brilliant, and oh-so-quotable Hank McCoy. If X-Men: The Animated Series was a core part of your childhood (or, let’s be real, your entire personality), you do NOT want to miss this episode!
Beauty and the Beast #2 was released in February 1, 1985. In that same time:
- The top film at the time: Beverly Hills Cop
- The top song at the time: “I Want To Know What Love Is” by Foreigner
Beauty and the Beast #2 is written by Ann Nocenti with art by Don Perlin with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz.
