So who do you think is Spider-mans greatest Nemesis
post who and why


I say it's obviously the Green Goblin
1.killed gwen stacy
2.Was the one who orchestrated the Clone saga
3.killed Ben Reilly the closest thing he had to a brother
4.kidnapped pete's daughter and most probably killed her (she's most likely dead in this 616 reality considering spider-girl is more of a what if.)
5.Kidnapped Aunt may and maid peter believe she had died when it was just an actress
6.Slept with Gwen and genetically engineered their children to fight and kill spider-man
7.Has strength to rival Peter and a healing factor
8.He's Intelligent and is loaded with weaponry with his glider and bombs
9.He' insane and has dedicated his life to ruining Peter's life

he's probaly the one behind 'the other' somehow
o you forgot to mention he kinapped Aunt May again and put her in a grave with her own muck, and threw mary jane off a bridge almost having the smae fate as gwen.

I say it's Venom cuz he's the perfect nemesis for spider-man.

The Walrus is Spider-Man's greatest nemesis

It depends what you mean by arch-nemesis.

I would say Green Goblin because of all the sh!t he's put Peter through, and the long standing relationship they've had.

But then again... Morlun did kill Parker...

and then Parker killed him back.

he wasn't really dead that time, just critcally injured.

Morlun is cool. He doesnt make long insane plans he just kicks ass.
Thats my boy.

Well the Green Goblin has also killed Peter
Ben Reilly was a clone of his after all

how much can peter take before he wants to kill the guy. he murdered their baby for gods sake

May be after Evolve or Dei he will lose his Holding back power.
That would be cool. He has not to kill his villians just cripple them.
So they cant do evil things anymore

I say Green Goblin as well,Venom comes in second.

The strogest, the smartest, the unknown. How can Mysterio do what he does? He works for a studio and uses special effects by projecting images but those images are solid!

um..he's deffinatly not the strongest

He doesn't fit into any category. Mysterio is special. Please mention the main villains. Remember hammerhead? He's nothing original to me but Rhyno is, profession bank robber. Ha!

That was a lazy question, sorry fella. 1_Chameleon2_Vulture3_Doctor Octopus4_Sandman5_Lizard6_Electro7_Mysterio8_Green
Goblin9_Scorpion10_Rhino. These are the main villains "to me". I love Amazing Spiderman issue#187. Guess what it is.

well, there more likely the classic villians, most well known.

I don't get what all the stuff is with Morlun!!!
He's only been active a few years. It's gonna be a lot longer than that before anyone should recongnize him as "arch." I think he'll be more like Onslaught, where there will be a huge saga and that will be it. Morlun will die. End of story. Let's compare attributes:

Morlun:
Really strong
Absorbs people's life force or whatever
Really cool
Got darn close to killing Spider-Man

Venom:
All the powers of Spider-Man
A good deal stronger
Tentacles
A character we can relate to
Doesn't set off the spider-sense
Knew his secret identity
NOT THE SCORPION!

Green Goblin:
Classic villain
Silly costume (it's a positive trait)
Glider
Throws pumpkins
Killed Peter's first love
Killed the closest thing Peter had to a brother
Knows his secret identity (still)
Peter's best friend's father
Peter's best friend
Peter's best friend's psychiatrist
Peter's co-worker's cousin...

I could keep going for pages. Thing is, hands-down Goblin, then Venom, then Doctor Octopus, then Kingpin, maybe Carnage in there somewhere, maybe Jackal if he's not dead, Hobgoblin, Toxin can die, then Lizard, then Mysterio, then Electro, then Scorpion, then Sandman, then Kraven, then Rhino, then Chameleon, then Shocker, then Hammerhead, then Morlun, then Hydro-Man, then Tombstone.

I'm surprised nobody picked Doctor Octopus. That gave is always giving spider-man problems.

I agree with that except I think Doc Ock comes before venom and after GG. He was after all one of the frst villains to defeat spidey but Ock doesn't have that insane obsession that GG has to get the top spot..........

Clearly these movies are not kinpin the order from the comic but the villains are truly there. Am I right

Exactly.

Morlun should not be on that poll.Two arcs,and he's suddenly a contender for Spider-Man's greatest nemesis??

Don't think so.

1.jameson/green goblin If you're a spidey fan you would know why.
2.doc ock
3.venom

Ock (Silver Age) or Carnage (Modern Age) should replace Morlun on the poll. He hasn't been around enough yet to rack up the body count.

As for who is his greatest nemesis.
Though Venom or Ock routinly kicks Spider-ass, Green Goblin is his greatest nemesis based on overall sadism and generally turning Pete's life to crap.

Also note-
If their were kids trapped in a burning building, Venom would probably stop mid-battle to help resuce the innocents whereas Green Goblin would laugh and pour on more gasoline.

Indeed.

Ock is like Golden age. with the Master planner thing and all that shizzle.

1) the Green Goblin for sure. He has mind screwed Peter for years, and knows way too many of his secrets.

2) J. Jonah Jameson. He often gets everyone to back his negative opinions because of his newspaper articles.

3) Spidey's conscience. It's the reason why he is always so guilt ridden, and down and broke.

Venom , Doc and GG are tied.

Well if he listed every bad guy the pool would be very long.

Going from the actual definition of nemesis (foe that seems to never go away), Goblin is the textbook definition. However, I think Venom is a tie with him because Peter has no idea whatsoever what he'll do next. One minute he'll help Peter, the other he'll try to kill him. I say they're equal, even though Venom is my fave, before the whole Venom miniseries, and Venom: The Hunger, which ruined his character.

I really don't see how Venom is a contender,no offence to the Venom fans,but he's fought along side Spider-Man several times.Heck he even made peace with Spider-Man at one point.

Ock and Green Goblin never did that.

I mean what has Venom done that makes him a huge threat to Spider-Man?? Considering he knows his identity and all.Norman acted on that knowledge by killing and kidnapping friends and loved ones of Peter's.

Don't forget Eddie Brock. Eddie hates peter for Many reasons and so do alot of people. This poll should of had more Villains so theres more of a range to discuss. But I do agree, Venom sounds like a big threat and all. But he has co-operated with spider man on occasions.
I definately agree Goblin should be top. I'd hate to feel the way peter would!?!

Eddie Brock is Venom

Someone was saying that VENOM shouldn't be on the nemesis list, but surely if Venom isn't at least Brock should be.

I think it depends on what kind of enemy we're talking about, but if we're talking about just physical threat, I'd have to say the Black Tarantula. I realize he seems like just another tough guy, but if you look back at the comics, he completely tooled Spiderman. Also, he's almost impossible to kill. Aside from his super strength and supreme fighting abilities, he also has an incredible healing ability.

Yeah your right..

Why isn't there an Other option.
