Amazing Adventures #12 (May) Iron Man: DOA.
Steve Englehart, Tom Sutton, Mike Ploog.
Professor X tries to contact the Beast, who duly responds with a heartfelt piss off, baldy - leave me alone, or words to that effect. Possibly his attitude is explained by Marvel Girl's comment that the Beast is the only one who has been allowed to leave by the Professor. They've been in hiding ever since X-Men #66. Regretting having turned himself into Chewbacca, Hank makes a latex face mask and fake hands and devises special strappy bondage underwear to correct his now Gorilla-like posture so he can disguise himself as himself, if you see what I mean. It's probably not worth worrying over whether or not this will work given how certain superheroes can fool even close family members as to their identity with just a pair of specs. Following this latest transformation, Hank gets angry more easily and so gets into a scrap with Iron Man and actually kills him - or so he believes, although this is an illusion created by Mastermind who wishes to recruit this new Beast to his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.
