Is morbius good or bad

Morbius is a vampire whose curse comes more from the test tube than the netherworld. He brought his condition unwittingly upon himself while trying to cure his rare blood condition. He's sometimes a villain, sometimes a hero, and often — as Star-Lord might say — a bit of both. He premiered in 1971's Amazing Spider-Man #101 as a bad guy. Eventually, he was more unstable ally than villain. He headlined for a while in Marvel's horror comic Fear, landed his first shot at a solo monthly book with Morbius: The Living Vampire in 1992, and another in 2013 with the same name. 

Is morbius good or bad 

The first trailer for Morbius has arrived, and it's already better than what most fans were expecting. Featuring Jared Leto in various stages of method acting, from the sallow and gaunt to the virile and muscular, it chronicles Dr. Michael Morbius as he does whatever it takes to cure himself of a fatal disease, including experimenting with electricity and vampire bats. The result of the experiments transforms him into Morbius, the Living Vampire, a character that first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man comics.

HE COULD CONNECT TO THE REST OF THE MCU 

In one of the most shocking moments from the new Morbius trailer, a familiar face from the MCU makes a sudden appearance: Vulture! Spider-Man fans will remember Michael Keaton as the charismatic villain from Spider-Man: Homecoming, and his appearance marks the first solid connection the film has to the rest of the MCU.

ONE OF HIS MAIN NEMESIS IS LOXIAS CROWN 

In the role of Loxias Crown, Morbius's best friend is Matthew Smith. Crown has the same rare blood disorder as Morbius, and works to help him find a cure. In the comics, Loxias Crown appears in Spider-Man #76 published in 1997, and assumes the alias of "Hunger," squaring off against both Morbius and Blade. It's been rumored that Smith won't play Crown exactly as he was depicted in the comics, and it sounds like the character of Emil Nikos and Crown were combined. Hunger becomes an incredibly powerful vampire that Morbius has to fight, so expect to see Smith as the Big Bad of this film in some supernatural form.

HIS BEST FRIEND IS EMIL NIKOS 

Michael Morbius's best friend was his lab assistant, Emil Nikos. Nikos helped him search for a cure for his blood disease, but unfortunately when Morbius became a living vampire, he was his first victim. This turned Nikos into a vampire as well, with similar abilities to Morbius.

HE HAS A LOVE INTEREST 

From the first trailer, we see brief flashes of a young woman, who is revealed to be Martine Bancroft, Morbius’ fiancée, according to IMDb. She was introduced in The Amazing Spider-Man #102 back in 1973, and she has gone through some rapid development since her first appearance.

HE COULD ENCOUNTER TOM HOLLAND'S SPIDER-MAN

Because Morbius is a Spider-Man character, there's a chance that Tom Holland's Spider-Man could appear in the new film. For a while this seemed unlikely, because Marvel had already licensed the rights to Spider-Man to Sony for twenty years, an agreement set up prior to Disney purchasing Marvel.

HE DOESN'T HAVE MAGIC POWERS 

Morbius may be a "pseudo-vampire," but he isn't a vampire in the mystical sense of the term. The vampires of global folklore, which are spurned by holy water and the sign of the cross, are only inspirations for the legendary Morbius, who isn't affected by religious iconography.

HE'S A "LIVING VAMPIRE" 

When Dr. Michael Morbius cures himself of his rare blood disorder, he doesn't become a "Vampire" in the traditional sense. He is turned into a "pseudo-vampire," in that he must drink human blood to survive, as well as avoid sunlight. He also developed certain physical deformities, such as his teeth becoming jagged, and his nose flattening to resemble a bat's.

HE HAS A RARE BLOOD DISORDER 

Before he became Morbius, the "Living Vampire", he was Dr. Michael Morbius in The Amazing Spider-Man comics, a Greek biochemist and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize who had a rare blood disorder that was slowly causing his body and mind to waste away.

HIS COMIC IS VIOLENT

Like Blade, another Marvel comic featuring the lives of vampires, Morbius is a comic steeped in blood. Morbius may be a sympathetic antagonist, but as he becomes more deeply entrenched in his status as a "living vampire," he's driven more and more by his insatiable need for blood.

HE'S A SUPERVILLAIN

Something important to remember when considering a new Morbius movie is that the titular character is in fact a supervillain. He first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #101 and fought the famous web-slinger, and would continue to do so over the next several years. With films like Venom depicting another famous Spider-Man supervillain as more of an anti-hero, there's reason to believe that Morbius will also be a sympathetic character that audiences can relate to on some level, even if his story involves brutal violence.

     
While Marvel officially nailed the coffin on its Ultimate line of comics in 2015 with the Secret Wars tie-in miniseries Ultimate End, the Ultimate line's impact on Marvel's film adaptations can't be ignored. A lot of what we've seen in the MCU was first seen in the Ultimate Comics. Nick Fury was first drawn as Samuel L. Jackson in Ultimates six years before the actor appeared as the S.H.I.E.L.D. Director in Iron Man. Black Widow and Hawkeye being a part of the original Avengers line-up, Bruce Banner becoming the Hulk while trying to rediscover Captain America's Super Soldier formula, Captain America's World War II era outfit, and even the Chitauri all started in the Ultimate comics. There's no reason to believe the Morbius filmmakers wouldn't learn from the MCU's example and pull from the Ultimate version of the character. 

It could be that when Jared Leto portrays Morbius, he won't be a "living" vampire at all. The Morbius of the Ultimate comics was introduced in Ultimate Spider-Man #95. The Ultimate version of Morbius was more connected to the vampires of his world than his Marvel Earth-prime counterpart — a more traditional, undead vampire who told Spider-Man he was the son of Dracula. Ironically, though more attached to the world of the undead than the original, the Ultimate Morbius was not only not a villain, but spent his time hunting his brethren.
