Alonzo Thompson "Lonnie" Lincoln, better known as Tombstone, is a minor antagonist in the 2018 superhero video game Marvel's Spider-Man and a minor character in its 2023 sequel Marvel's Spider-Man 2. He is a superhuman crime lord in New York City and one of Spider-Man's enemies, and is working on a drug that gives criminals the same effects of durable skin for a small amount of time.
At some point, he retired from being crime lord and became a mechanic for go-karts. He became a target for Kraven the Hunter's hunt, until Spider-Man and Harry helped Tombstone escape from the Hunters.
He was voiced by Corey Jones.

Background[]

Tombstone is known to be a supervillain who is indestructible due to exposure to powerful chemicals, so much so that bullet shots to the head have no impact. While Mary Jane is getting trackers from Lincoln's office, Tombstone kills one of his bikers for failing to finish the APCs.
Activating a side-quest has you discovering that Tombstone was able to reverse-engineer his condition and package its effects in inhalers that are sold to bikers who Spider-Man squares off against.

Tombstone tells Spider-Man that he fought admirably, and on the way to prison, awaits for round two.
