What's so special about him? Why does /co/ like him?

>inb4 fat loser /co/ can relate
I just hink he's pretty cool. Living robot arms, smart, has that evil Peter Parker thing going on, pretty good stories, Spider-Man 2. It's cool how he gives vilains like Electro better ways to use their abilities so they job less

He seems more possible in many incarnations and the fun places writers take him. Because he's the fucking doc.
The arms are such a neat visual that Metal Gear stole it, and he forced his way into everyone's hearts during Superior.
Has generic but an interesting origin. For example, Banner was a school shooter which had terrible childhood. He later redeemed himself thanks to the opportunities military gave him. He tried to do good. Hulk is his childhood persona. This equation clearly gives us the idea that Banner still tries to fix this childhood since Hulk is actually a good person. It's the reverse with Ock. Had terrible childhood. Tried to fix the world. It blew up on his face and went full psycho. His psychotic nature made him obsessed with Spidey.

When you got a shitstain dad named Torbert, you know it's grounds for supervillain origin
I think the first comic with Doc Ock I read was the Civil War one where he sees Peters news broadcast. Goes on a rampage because he could have killed off his nemisis early on, but let him go mistakenly

I should really read this.

Because he's a doctor, AND an octopus

>AND an octopus
That'd be neat.

How can normal doctors even compete?

I love this story

I liked Ult Doc Ock. Guy was fit and a serious threat to Spider-Man. He even helped clone Peter. Shame he got a shitty death. I liked him more than Ult Norman
>>81449396
That was hilarious. He could of killed Peter when he had the chance but let him go because he couldn't believe that Peter was Spider-Man.
>>81448815
He's basically like a dark mirror of Spider-Man.
Two unpopular nerds get superpowers in a freak accident. One becomes a hero, one becomes a villain.

That's awesome.
Funny how in the AoU Tie in he acts more like a Peter Parker after he learns the value of teamwork
What I find funny about doc is that in the process of coming up with a new energy source he created super advanced robot arms attached to his nervous system. Like it was a side project. He created prosthetics that weren't rejected by his body, connected perfectly to his brain and increased the capabilities of his mind (how does his brain deal with 4 more arms?). All of that is insane and would revolutionise the world and he did it as a side project!
But then he went crazy and started spending time by robing banks and fighting a teenage boy in a tight costume.

W-why is Octospidey torturing the poor qt with the braids?
>>81454629
Because he

and Ock had to make a point

If there's one thing I don't like about Spider-Man's rogues gallery, it's how in practice most of the big names are just thugs. Outside of Venom, Kraven, and occasionally Goblin, the default state for most of them is either participating in organized crime or robbing banks for some arbitrary goal.
