In new fan art, Jared Leto's Morbius defeats Tom Holland's Spider-Man in a «what if?» battle that could eventually make its way to the screen. Leto stars in the upcoming Sony Marvel film Morbius, an origin story about Michael Morbius, a scientist suffering from a rare blood disease that will lead to his premature death. After a failed attempt at a cure, Morbius ends up in a vampire-like state with superhuman abilities. Leto is joined by Matt Smith as Morbius' friend Milo, Adria Arjona as a fellow scientist and Morbius' fiancée, and Jared Harris as Nicholas, a mentor and father figure to the future villain.
Sony's Morbius follows Venom and its sequel Venom: Let There Be Carnage in a string of releases of origin films for popular Spider-Man villains. Originally slated to be released way back in June of 2020, the film will now release after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home. In the latest Spider-Man film, Dr. Strange and Peter Parker accidentally miscast a spell, leading to a rift in the multiverse and causing previous Sony superhero characters to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including the likes of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's versions of Spider-Man.

Recent superhero crossover fan art by venomhology imagines Jared Leto's Morbius and Tom Holland's Spider-Man after a rain-soaked battle. In the scene, Morbius stands in the rain at the precipice of an apartment building roof in a city, presumably New York, with Spider-Man held high above his head, about to be tossed to his death. No doubt this is the result of a brutal battle between the web-slinger and the vampire villain. Check out the art below.
