Ah, Dr. Octopus, one of my favorite villains. Dr. Octopus is fairly
unique in the world of comics. He's overweight, which is something that
Marvel embraced far before DC, with characters such as Blob and Kingpin.
He doesn't start off as a villain, either. In fact, it is the accident
that gives him his abilities that also robs him of his sanity. It's an
interesting dichotomy between him and Spider-Man, in that case.
Spider-Man gains his powers from a radioactive spiders, but maintains
his own personality along with the increased powers. What, however,
would happen if he were driven insane from the radioactivity and became
one of the greatest villains? Dr. Octopus lets us find that out!
Debuting in Amazing Spider-Man #3 as one of the best Spider-Villains yet, here comes Dr. Octopus!
