Scorpion was the first Spider-Man villain I ever saw in a comic, Amazing Spider-Man #318. I can still remember being creeped out by him destroying mannequin heads. Must have grabbed a 1989 issue out of a back issue box around 1994, I was way too young to read that one live. First appearance of Carnage was the second Spidey story I picked up, so also a big impact.
XM nailed the face on that one, key to the whole piece for me. Would have picked it up if I had been collecting or knew it existed. Alas.
Scorpion is one of a handful of random villains I would buy without any associated heroes, lines, or grouping planned. Others are Bullseye, Carnage, and Dr. Doom. So if XM is listening for new characters/repeats...
Regardless, looks like I might be looking for space to fit a Carnage in my display when or if this comes out. Liked the previous one a lot, but again, not collecting at that time.
