Morlun Is One Of Spider-Man’s Most Powerful Marvel Comics Villains
First introduced to Marvel Comics in 2001’sThe Amazing Spider - Man ( Vol . 2 ) # 30 , Morlun is a psychic vampire from " Loomworld " , a.k.a . Earth-001 , who poses a threat to every version of Spider - Man across the multiverse . Morlun ’s destination is to destroy the " Spider Totems " , beings that have been gifted spider - like abilities through various means- for Earth-616 ’s Peter Parker , this was via a wanderer bite . As psychical vampires , Morlun and his menage feed off the energy from these Totems , which putsPeter Parker ’s Spider - Manand all the Spider - People of the multiverse in danger of attack from Morlun and his kin , the heritor .
The construct of Animal Totems has n’t yet been introduced to the MCU , and may be too complicated for the already - complex world of Marvel Studios ' live - action franchise . However , introducingMorlun inSpider - Man 4would provide Tom Holland ’s Peter Parker with an incredibly dark threat , as the otherworldly being often toys with Parker from the shadows before submitting him to brutal strong-arm attacks . Morlun and the Inheritors were have as the primary antagonists of Marvel Comics’Spider - Versestoryline in 2014 , as well as the 2018Spider - Geddonevent , make Morlun one of the Marvel Comics multiverse ’s most active , pertinacious and dangerous Spider - Man villains .
No Way Home Set Up The Perfect Way To Introduce Morlun To The MCU
The fact that Morlun traditionally helms from an alternative realism mean that he would need to employ multiversal travel in the MCU if he ’s to fight Tom Holland ’s Peter Parker inSpider - Man 4 . fortunately for him , Marvel Studios already connected Spider - Man to the multiverse in 2021’sSpider - Man : No Way Home , pitting Earth-616 ’s Peter Parker against a slew of powerful villains from Sam Raimi and Marc Webb ’s previousSpider - Manfranchises . This immense effect made ripples throughout the multiverse , as proven byMiguel O’Hara ’s mention of Doctor Strange ’s spellinSpider - Man : Across the Spider - Verse , so this for sure gather the attending of Morlun .
Spider - Man : No Way Home ’s ending is a big one in term of go down thing up for the MCU ’s future tense and seeing the next degree in Peter Parker ’s journeying .
fibre from three freestanding alternate realities were add into the MCU inSpider - Man : No Way Home , include those from Sam Raimi’sSpider - Mantrilogy , those from Marc Webb’sThe Amazing Spider - Manduology , and Tom Hardy ’s Eddie Brock , a.k.a . Venom , from Sony ’s Spider - Man Universe . Having so many multiversal characters cross into the MCU may have subvert the limit between realities enough for Morlun to slip through undetected . Multiple other Spider - Man villains almost did this inNo Way Homebefore Doctor Strange varnish the rifts , imply it ’s possible Morlun is already lurking in the background , waiting to resile to activity inSpider - Man 4 .

Morlun Would Solve Spider-Man 4’s Multiverse Or Street-Level Confusion
Marvel Comics ' Morlun is overtly a multiversal villain , meaning his debut inSpider - Man 4would in all likelihood result the narrative in this direction . However , amazingly , Morlun also inhabits some of the more street - level story that Marvel Studios can search , as not only is he a multiversal threat , buthe also uses psychological warfare and connive intrigue to flirt with Peter Parker before seek to feed on Earth-616 ’s Spider - Man . This kind of minor - scale , personal scourge would allowMarvel Studios’Spider - Man quarto see a much more street - level story , while perhaps building up to a major multiversal upshot in the picture ’s final moment .
Since Sony is already exploring the multiverse in itsanimatedSpider - Versefranchise , it ’s likely that the MCU’sSpider - piece 4would detain away from a narrative of this epic scale . However , Spider - Man : No Way Homealready evidence that convey just a few Spider - the great unwashed into the MCU works perfectly at expanding the multiverse , while maintain the story intimate . PerhapsMarvel studio can introduce some new Spider - Man variants to aid Peter Parker in his struggle against Morlun inSpider - Man 4 , but just enough to suggest at the vast multiverse , while keep the magnitude of the labor smaller in scale and much more personal .
Sony has , so far , produced two animatedSpider - Verseprojects : 2018’sSpider - Man : Into the Spider - Verseand 2023’sSpider - homo : Across the Spider - Verse . These focus on Miles Morales ' Spider - Man , rather than Earth-616 ’s Peter Parker .
Morlun In Spider-Man 4 Can Make Room For A New MCU Spider-Man
While Tom Holland has been confirmed to be return asPeter Parker inSpider - Man 4 , there has been some surmisal that he may soon strike out from the role , perhaps after Phase 6’sAvengers : Secret war . This mean Marvel Studios may be preparing to introduce a new Spider - Man , and Morlun ’s launching inSpider - Man 4creates the perfect chance for this modulation to take position . During 2005’sSpider - human being : The Otherstoryline in Marvel Comics , Morlun ’s actions in reality drink down Peter Parker ’s Spider - Man , and though this was only irregular , this bring home the bacon the chance for a novel rampart - crawler to take Holland ’s place in the MCU .
Spider - Man : Homecoming confirmed that Miles Morales does be in the MCU .
It ’s possible that Marvel Studios may have card the stark alternate for Peter Parker in the MCU , as Donald Glover ’s appearance as Aaron Davis inSpider - Man : Homecomingconfirmed thatMiles Morales does exist in the MCU.Rather than coming from the substitute Earth-1610 , it seems as though the MCU ’s Miles Morales resides on Earth-616 , but the fact that he does exist mean he could finally take up the persona of Spider - Man . Spider - Man 4could explore the street - level aspect of Peter Parker training Miles Morales , perhaps with the latter drive to take the role of Spider - Man following the former ’s tragic death .
