The Four Color Media Monitor

In this interview on Newsarama with Marvel editor Nick Lowe, they've revealed the Beast's new design, which abandons the feline shape in favor of...gee, I dunno, a design that looks like a cross between a furry alien and Sasquatch?

Well, at least it looks better than the tedious cat-design. But no way will I be wasting time and money on a Bendis book. It's been clear for a long time that Bendis has no respect for the cast of characters he's been given the reins to write, nor any respect for the audience, and that's why spending money on his books would only be a foolish step.

In the end, the only character design for Beast that I find appealing is what he was given in the early 70s. A real shame it's been thrown away for more than a decade now.
