Who Is The Spot In ‘Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse?’

There are only a few certain instances where spots can be scary, especially if you have trypophobia, the fear of small holes (don’t Google it). But the worst is when those spots can double as portals or be used against you (don’t you hate it when that happens!) which just so happens to be the motive behind the new villain Spot in Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse.

Spot is a new character in the Spider-Verse franchise, but he has been around Marvel for quite a while. The character was originally introduced in the 1980s as a man named Jonathan Ohnn, a scientist who discovered that he could travel between dimensions via various dark portals, which eventually consumed him and his entire body. After learning he can use those portals to help him fight, he quickly became an enemy after Spider-Man laughed at his silly name. To be fair, it does make him sound like a lost dog.
