Are you ready for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2? Many are, and anyone who has played the first two titles in the series by Insomniac Games knows what to expect when it arrives.

Then again, he might remember this when he and Miles have to face off against Venom later on in the game. As of now, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 only has a few villains confirmed. Kraven, The Lizard, and Venom are among them. We know Martin Li
