Kaine is ranked #76 on our list of  The 100 Best Marvel Villains Ever.

The first, flawed clone of Peter Parker created by the JACKL, Kaine developed cellular degeneration and was able to survive only by wearing a special life-support suit. His condition left him badly scared, and caused his spider-powers to become twister and magnified. Abandoned by his creator, and knowing himself to be nothing more than mockery of true life, Kaine wandered the world taking on work as an assassin to survive.

Kaine would duplicated his own facial scarring on his victim’s faces, leaving it as a calling card – the “mark of Kaine.” Kaine believed that the Ben Reilly clone of Peter Parker was the true SPIDER-MAN, and made it his mission in life to torture and torment Reilly for having the life that never would, even framing him for a series of murders.

Eventually, Kaine was drawn back into Spider-Man’s orbit as part of a far reaching plot of the JACKL’s, and he was a participant in the Maximum Clonage affair which resulted in him finally learning the truth about Reilly and Parker. In the end, Kaine gave himself up to the authorities to pay for his crimes; however, he later escaped from prison, and his current whereabouts are unknown.

Davida DeVito, alias Titania, was the leader of the original Grapplers, a team of the female professional wrestlers.

A robotic juggernaut, the Dreadnought was built by the terror group HYDRA, but its first field trial proved unsuccessful: directed to kill Nick Fury, the SHIELD director’s resourcefulness, combat training and arsenal of miniaturized weaponry combined to overwhelm the automaton.

This wasn’t the end of the machine, however; when the MAGGIA crime family stole the Dreadnought blueprints, eight more of these machines were built, the most sophisticated being a silver version of the robot. Numerous Super Heroes have contended with these new Dreadnoughts including IRON MAN, SPIDER MAN and the FANTASTIC FOUR, and each time the heroes have proved triumphant.
