What are your thoughts on the Jackal?

I wanna see him go up against Morbius. No idea why just a thought I had.

Ironically Ben had the better Jackal outfit so maybe just give Miles the Anubis getup.

I agree. The Jackal's usual outfit make him TOO similar to the Green Goblin, honestly. The Anubis getup is way more interesting, and with some bandage, it could be like a mummy.

Have you noticed there are other enemies of Spidey based on classic monsters?
+ Vampire: Morbius
+ Werewolves: Lobo Brother or Man-Wolf.
+ Frankenstein: Hammerhead.

That would be interesting, especially if it's to cover up any Carrion Virus infections.

Hammer Horror was pretty iconic in the 30s. So most of the early Spiderman writers would've drawn from them for inspiration.

On one hand, given his history with Spider-Man, the Jackal could be considered a classic Spider-Man villain. But on the other hand, it seems like the Jackal doesn't receive a lot of thought or care compared to other Spider-Man villains. So I'm curious what do you guys think of the Jackal? Is he someone that Marvel should do more with or is he pretty much a lost cause at this point?

because of his legacy with the clone saga, I am unforgiving of Jackal as a character. He ended up being responsible for too much mayhem. Cloning is a super easy gimmick now, it's a trope I can do without.

I never minded him. I have a huge Amazing Spiderman poster framed in my sons room with the cover showing Hammerhead and the Jackal. Always loved the cover (forget which issue it is). The Spider mobile is in it as well. My son loves it.

I think hes top tier villain since being behind two arcs: Clone Saga and Spider-Island
