So #Morbius is happening. Morbius the Living Vampire is actually going to be a thing now. To top that, Jared Leto is going to be playing this villain… no not a villain, more of a tragic character who is brought down by his own desires. There are good scientists and mad ones, Michael Morbius is a mad one. He cuts corners, doesn’t take all of the proper precautions, and skips any attempt at peer review. The character came about when the Comics Code Authority was still a powerful force in the comic book industry. There was a moratorium on “Undead” characters. The solution… a “Living Vampire”. Marvel was always brilliant in how it skirted around the rules.
Anyhow, this is something that I am interested in watching how it develops.
