no it is death spores, for i have seen it written that way in comics, you're only saying death factor b-cuz it sounds cool to you. in fact, in all my years of reading comics i have never ever heard anyone say or write "death factor" also, if you really want to get techincal any marvel source you consult will say that he releases pheromones that are lethal to others.i dunno maybe they just put "death factor" in one o dem new marvel encyclopedias(not). besides omega is class 10, since when has doc ocks tentacles become that strong?
The death pheromones only come into play with direct contact between him and his victims. I've always refered to it as his 'death factor' when he gets within a certain distance of people, and I'm pretty sure its not spores.
Lots of things.
1. Doctor Octopus is not a laughing stock. He has beaten Spider-Man many times and aside from the fact that he's fat, he's a very dangerous villain. However, I don't recall him beating the Hulk? When did this happen, and if it did, it was obviously a 'keep Hulk at bay while I get the hell out of here.'
2. I just love how they keep increasing the length of the arms. In Amazing #3, they were maybe 6 ft. long. I don't know where you got the 25 ft. number from, but the illustrations have never really depicted them being that long.
3. Didn't Omega Red die?
technically yes, but as long as there are life forces in his vicinty for him to drain he can be restored. thats why whenver, he's defeated by [insert good guy here] he always ends up in cold stasis somewhere, or buried in some snow capped mountain in russia. and finally, until someone provides evidence like i did im gonna stick to discounting that there is such a term as "death factor"

But back then, his arms were made of adamantium, if I remember correctly, and much much stronger than they normally are.
The second time they fought, Hulk won.
You know I never got the point of the adamantium arms storyline. Ock doesn't need those to do anything. Yes they're stronger, harder, yada yada, but Ock has never had any instances of Spider-Man or anyone breaking the arms. They worked well enough to beat the hell out of Spidey when they were able to get ahold of him. It's his agility that beats him, not his strength.
