Morbius



Michael Morbius was a biogenetic scientist who was dying of a blood-destroying disease. He injected himself with radiatively altered vampire bat DNA, and it transformed him into a living vampire. Morbius now had a craving for human blood, especially the radioactive blood of Spider-man, which he thought would cure his never-ending hunger.

Morbius gained superhuman strength and stamina, as well as the ability to glide over short distances. Unlike a true vampire, he is not immortal, but is also somewhat immune to garlic, sunlight, and other things that are deadly to vampires.

Morbius has battled The Lizard, another tragic character who was mutated into a monster.
