i for one am already #KravingTheKraven.
ill gurantee you it will be yet another morbillion dollar success
0/10 sitting in the seductive position, no bulge in sight. This is like when they edited out Namor's bulge all over again.
Ah, like when morbious became a big success after they brought it back to cinemas 🤔😆
I never really understood this guy's name. Isn't he supposed to be so badass he'll hunt anything and he wants to find the most dangerous prey or whatever?
They just swapped the C for a K and a craven person is contemptibly lacking in courage; cowardly.

I like it.
The in-universe explanation is that his surname is Kravinoff and it was anglicized to Kraven when his family was exiled from Russia. The real world explanation is the character was inspired by General Zaroff from The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell and he was a super lame Spider-Man villain for 20+ years until Kraven's Last Hunt in 1987. So it's best not to put too much thought into the name beyond accepting that it's intentionally oxymoronic - it wasn't supposed to be a flattering depiction of big game hunters.
Good to know, thanks for sharing!
Let's guess the next catchy phrase that Sony management requested, I'll go first:
"I'm Kraving... -shows teeth-"™
One of the executives shouted "That's so Kraven!"
It's kravn time!
The fuck is wrong with his abdomen? If his hands weren't mostly correct I'd think it was the actors face plastered onto AI generated nonsense.
EDIT: Maybe I was being too harsh, there are examples of gaps in abs in images online so maybe it's not that unusual?
Is this not an illustration? He apparently gained 20 pounds of muscle for the role, but I don't think he actually developed prehensile rectus abdominis muscles as depicted above.
He is pretty ripped though.
I searched images of bodybuilder images and I guess it's not that uncommon for abs to part like the red sea.
pecs can do it as well.
Right, because that worked out so well for Morbius!
I barely made it all the way through that one once lol
Morbius was the best of the Morb trilogy though.
are u /j or were there genuinely three
The Morb Trilogy is the first three, or the OT, as it's more commonly called.
