Considered one of the best rogues galleries in comics by many fans, Spider-Man’s villains are iconic. Of course, this is for good reason— many have recognizable designs and standout personalities. Foes such as the Green Goblin or Doctor Octopus are considered some of the best in comics history due to their compelling motives and treacherous schemes.
Yet, despite how large Spider-Man’s gallery of rogues is, many enemies within find themselves lacking. Most are built on the bones of good ideas, and some have a few stories that hint at something greater for these villains— but, for the most part, they are inconsistent or inconsequential characters. Looking at foes ranging from Electro to Screwball suffering from the problem of wasted potential, many of Spider-Man’s rogues can be amazing in the comics.
Screwball isn’t a character that needs to be written with layers of nuances or given a sympathetic motive, something 2017’s Marvel Spider-Man cartoon did to lackluster results. Instead, it would be best if writers actually gave her a name or the simplest of backstories, the bare minimum of development she has sadly been left without. Similarly developing her social media niche would also be a fantastic way to keep her up with the times, as live-streaming parkour is a bit of a dead trend nowadays.
