    Correct. It was in the Peter Parker Spidey series in the 90s. Originally Blade only had immunity to being transformed into a full vampire and couldn't be hypnotized by them. I think he had slow aging as well. But the immunity to daylight and the "boosting" of his natural abilities into super human territory was caused by the bite from Morbius interacting with his blood.

    I think Marvel just retconned it into being something he gained from Frost. Purely for simplification.

    I haven't read modern blade stuff, but he was a day walker in tomb of the Dracula when he was introduced I think.

    He wasn't. He was immune to the bite from a vampire (and he claimed it gave him a hatred of them) but he didn't have any vampiric abilities of his own.

    Ohhh. You mean he wasn't any stronger or faster than a regular guy? Yea it was always hard for me to tell from those original tomb of Dracula comics.

    Yup, that's exactly what I meant He was just extremely skilled.

    Yea I must have just sort of thought he had extra abilities now that you mention it. But he had super fashion sense

    I completely forgot about this movie. It looks better than both Venom flicks

    It looks fun and I like the gag at the end.

    Trying to be as upfront as possible with the Marvel/Spider-Man connection...look, OsCorp! We make Venom references/jokes! The Daily Bugle! Raimi Spider-Man, for some reason .

    I feel like they're better off leaning more into this as a horror movie than a Superhero movie, but Morbius does tend to toe the line.

    I do like the effects on his Morbius look...

    So what's with every trailer using some old rock song? What does that have to do with any of these characters?

    On a side note, I'd rather see him meet up with Blade than Spider-Man

    I was about to mention the same thing.

    Why do so many movie trailers nowadays use these "re-mixed" old rock songs?

    It looks much, much better than Sony other "Spider-universe" Venom movies.

    It also has a pretty good cast.

    I'm actually intrigued by this.

    People Are Strange takes me back to The Lost Boys, so maybe it's for that vampire connection.
