Description
Mutant Hobo Shocker!Alright, bear with me, folks, 'cause this is going to take some explaining...
Shocker's a fun character, but I'd never want him to be the main villain of a Spider-Man movie. My actual Spider-Man universe is not the one this Shocker hails from. This Shocker appeared in two Spider-Man dreams I had that I cobbled into an alternate Spider-Man universe.
In it, Shocker is an engineer who, in order to pay off mounting debts, turns to a life of crime using his invented gauntlets, spends years getting defeated by Spider-Man, and ends up roped into the Sinister Six, where he suffers yet another humiliating defeat at the hands of Spidey, not having been able to land a single hit.
With his body broken, and his spirit even more so, he heads into the sewers, where, years later, Spider-Man, on the hunt for the Lizard, runs into a now feral Shocker, wielding junkyard gauntlets and leading a pack of homeless sewer dwellers, all having been mutated by the run-off from The Lizard's experiments.
I wanted his gauntlets to be mismatched to give them a more cobbled together feel. In the dream, his face had scars on it that mimicked the texture of his mask/ suit, but I wanted to downplay that for the micro. His skin was grayish in hue, and he had eyes that glowed a subtle blue.
Big shout-out to Nova20X who provided the colors for Shocker along with encouragement.
