Peter Benjamin Parker, better known as The Lizard, is a minor antagonist in both the 2018 animated feature film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and its 2023 sequel Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
He is an alternate version to his Earth-65 self from Earth-65B, and shares a common backstory by being the only friend of Gwen Stacy, the Spider-Woman of that universe. Parker was later pushed into villainy from the abuse he constantly received from his bullies, especially Ned Leeds, before accidentally killing himself in a rampage at the prom.
He was voiced by Jack Quaid.
His Evil Ranking[]
His Villainous Deeds[]
- He attacked the school prom, planning to kill Ned Leeds and possibly every other student there.
- He tried to kill Spider-Woman when she attempted to stop him.
Why He Doesn't Stand Out?[]
- He massively fails the heinous standards of the Spider-Verse series.
- His plans rely on Fridge Horror, as it isn't outright confirmed that he planned on killing every student at the prom.
- Like most versions of the Lizard, he has no practically moral agency and is mostly an animal acting on pure rage.
- He is tragic, as he was constantly bullied by Ned Leeds to the point of it affecting his mental health.
- He ends up being a massive scapegoat. He only took the lizard serum so he could be strong like Gwen, hoping he could stand up to his bully. After the serum transformed himself into the Lizard, he had to fight Gwen and was crushed to death during the battle. He then spends his last moments regretting what he had become.
