I have a general concern that such high HP quantities scale poorly with the other supers. I would use a combination of Striking ST and SuperST (+300%) to keep HP down to more manageable level.

My general scale for HT is 10-11 normal, 12-13 difficult to subdue, 14+ plan on reducing them to -HPx5 because they probably won't pass out before dying.

Beast has Claws (at least blunt). I would also give him Brachiator and Clinging. Super Jump should be higher unless you're basing jump on something other than Speed. Some degree of super-senses are also justified (at least while he's blue and furry).

Resistant to Metabolic Hazards doesn't really make sense, and I have a personal distaste for Very Rapid Healing. Given that he has 30+ HP, he'll heal at triple the normal rate already. You could augment that with Slow Regeneration as well.

He does a lot of his studious work alone so I wouldn't give him Chummy. Not sure he's really a fanatic either. Mutants probably deserve a sigma (-1 or -2) in the Marvel universe.

Since you have Science!-15 you can delete all the science engineering skills such as: Bioengineering, Electrician, Electronics (all), Engineer, Mathematics (all), Mechanic, and possibly Research. That should shorten the skill list considerably.
