An ambitious and proud man, named Otto Octavius, prepares for the grand day where he presents Oscorp's greatest invention yet, that being: the 4 Mechanical arms, as well as Otto's new invention: the Radiation Chamber, used to contain any radiation that attempts to poison others. He arrives to the press along with the loving support of his wife, Rosie. When the grand day arrives, and everything seems to be going his way, it all goes horribly wrong, Radiation Chamber malfunctioning. Otto desperately trying to fix it, only ends up destroying his inhibitor chip. When Rosie attempts to save Otto, the malfunctioning Radiation Chamber explodes, slowly killing her. When Otto hears the horrible news while obtaining his now-permanent 4 mechanical arms, and when his reputation goes from respected man to laughing stock, he slowly transforms into an blood-thirsty, tragic and rageful man that wants to take his rage out on those who wrong him. With his new powers, he sets out to cause as many crimes he pleases, while he now goes by his new nickname: Doctor Octopus. He will stop anyone who stands in his way, including the superhero that Otto now despises: Spider-Man.
