Ultimate Spider-Man’s Sinister Six Explained

Mr. Negative

Initially, we have Martin Li, more famously known as Mr. Negative. He serves as the CEO for the F.E.A.S.T. Foundation, a charitable organization that offers food and shelter to New York’s less fortunate. In public, he is this compassionate figure, but in secret, he carries out crimes under the alias of Mr. Negative and leads a gang called the Demons. The fact that Mr. Negative possesses the ability to manipulate minds has largely remained hidden, due in part to the Daily Bugle dismissing all speculations about it. It is important to note that Kingpin owns the Daily Bugle.

Black Cat

In the Ultimate Universe, Felicia Hardy’s father, Walter Hardy, is infamously known as the Black Cat burglar. Once acknowledged as the world’s best thief, he has since hung up his tools to manage the Bronx and nurture his family. On the cover of Ultimate Spider-Man #11, we find a photo of his late wife and a young Felicia, who will eventually assume the Black Cat identity.

Kraven the Hunter

On Staten Island, it’s Sergei Kravinoff, also known as Kraven the Hunter, who is on the prowl. His appearance mirrors his character from Earth-616, and an interesting detail emerges: Kraven hunts in twos – one he eliminates, and one he protects. He keeps the remains of the slain in his hideout, while the surviving ones are kept in his personal zoo for public viewing.

As a lifelong fan of Marvel comics, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming Spider-Man spinoff movie featuring Kraven the Hunter, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Growing up with Peter Parker and his web-slinging adventures, I’ve always been intrigued by the complex and captivating character of Kraven, a hunter who is not only skilled but also obsessed with proving himself as the greatest in the world. The opportunity to delve deeper into this iconic villain’s backstory and motivations is truly a dream come true for me. I eagerly await the release later this year and can hardly wait to see how Taylor-Johnson brings Kraven to life on the big screen.

Mysterio

Mysterio’s background isn’t extensively detailed, yet he arrives dramatically, employing one of his numerous illusions. The only certainty is that Brooklyn appears to be under Mysterio’s control. This implies that Mysterio is now the final member left in the Sinister Six…

Mole Man

In the primary universe (Earth-616), Mole Man emerged as a nemesis for the Fantastic Four. However, in the Ultimate Universe, it seems that Mole Man will team up with Spider-Man’s adversaries, the Sinister Six. Mole Man is Wilson Fisk’s oldest and most devoted ally. Unlike being granted rule over one of the city boroughs, Mole Man resides beneath the surface, maintaining his original character.
