Five characters a fan wants in Marvel's Spider-Man 3
A Hackernoon opinion piece lists Morbius, Carnage, Green Goblin, the X-Men, and Human Torch as desired additions to Insomniac's next Spider-Man game.
A fan editorial argues five specific characters would strengthen the next Insomniac Spider-Man game based on franchise setup and comic history.
- — Morbius is absent from the series despite being a morally complex anti-hero worth exploring.
- — Carnage has groundwork laid via the Cletus Kassidy side mission in Spider-Man 2.
- — Norman Osborn has appeared in two games without becoming Green Goblin, making a trilogy reveal logical.
- — The confirmed Wolverine game places X-Men in the same universe, opening crossover possibilities.
- — The Baxter Building appears in Spider-Man 2, hinting at a potential Fantastic Four connection.
- — Human Torch is the author's top pick due to his long comic history of banter with Peter Parker.
- — The article acknowledges most of these inclusions are speculative wishes, not confirmed plans.
Frequently asked
- The author lists five characters: Morbius, Carnage, Green Goblin, any member of the X-Men, and Human Torch. Of these, Human Torch is ranked as the top personal pick due to his long history of entertaining interactions with Peter Parker in the comics. Green Goblin is framed as the most narratively overdue, given Norman Osborn has appeared across two games without yet becoming the villain.
