6. Morbius
(Marvel)
And hi, 90s Spider-Man cartoon fans! Man, first the Jubilee entry gets the X-Men fans, and now you guys. But if you did watch that cartoon, then you probably know Morbius, as he had a pretty decent-sized role in that thing.
Morbius was a biochemist who attempted to cure himself of a rare blood disease with a combo of vampire bats and electroshock therapy, which sounds metal as hell. But he messed up and turned himself into a vampire.
Well, not a vampire-vampire but like a vampire-like creature guy.
Poor Morbius has always vacillated between straight-up villain and misunderstood flawed protagonist, most recently in a self-titled series that I really enjoyed. He also did battle with the Marvel Zombies and helped reassemble The Punisher into Franken-Castle. But his regular role is as a good old Spider-Man villain, which is a role he’s good at. Watching Spider-Man fight a vampire is always a fun time, so Morbius will very frequently pop up in the Spider-Books around Halloween. But I’m always glad to see him.
