I was especially impressed with Mike Pollock’s voice for Beast, as he gives him the cadence of a nerdy scientist with the underlying animalistic growl of…well, of a beast. Same goes for Dan Green’s Colossus, who isn’t nearly as overblown as I was expecting him to go with the Russian accent.<templatestyles src="Module:Citation/CS1/styles.css"></templatestyles>
