The Spot was so freakish and menacing

He's usually just a throwaway Spidey villain or whatever, so I was really surprised what they did with him here. They went super hard. The dude went from some lame-o who couldn't even steal money from an ATM, to a multiversal abomination in no time, lol.

His backstory is pretty fucked up too. I think anyone would go insane if they were turned into that thing.

Also, his absolute hatred for Miles and wanting to ruin his life by killing Miles' dad, reminds me of Reverse Flash and his insane hatred for Barry Allen.

They should do this more often and utilize less recognizable villains up against the more iconic heroes. There’s a plethora of other baddies who can fight Superman yet we’re still getting either Lex Luthor or General Zod.

I'm not gonna say this often but I thought he was better than in the comics. He's not as threatening in the comics. Not only that but he's not been in very many comics either.
