Kraven the Hunter

Kraven the Hunter (Sergei Kravinoff; Russian: Сергей Кравинофф) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Debuting in The Amazing Spider-Man issue #15 (August 1964) as an adversary to the superhero Spider-Man, he has since endured as one of web-slinger's most formidable foes, and is part of the collective of adversaries that make up Spider-Man's rogues' gallery. Kraven has since come into conflict with other heroes, such as Black Panther and Tigra. He is also the half-brother of the Chameleon, and one of the founding members of the supervillain team, the Sinister Six.

Kraven is typically portrayed as a renowned big-game hunter who aims to kill Spider-Man to prove himself as the world's greatest hunter. Though he is often overconfident in his own abilities, which he boasts about, he possesses a great sense of honor, and treats his adversaries as equals until proven otherwise. Because of this, Kraven has also been depicted as an antihero and an ally of Squirrel Girl and sometimes Spider-Man himself, whom he came to respect deeply for the numerous times he out-skilled Kraven.

The character has appeared in numerous Spider-Man media adaptations, including animated series and video games. He is widely regarded as one of the most formidable enemies among his rogues. The character gained considerable attention from the story "Kraven's Last Hunt". In 2009, Kraven was ranked as IGN's 53rd greatest comic book villain of all time. Aaron Taylor-Johnson will portray the character in the upcoming self-titled film, which is set in the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters.

 * Kraven appears in Marvel's Spider-Man: Webbed Champion, voiced by Troy Baker. His story in the show remains the same from the Canon version of the show, and is followed by a new role in the Fanon version. He is mentioned twice in "On the Tiger's Claws", first when is it revealed that Kraven had once hunted Mary Jane Watson in her first superhero night as Tigra, but failed miserably, resulting on Kraven losing his left eye and right arm. It is later mentioned that J. Jonah Jameson was the one who hired Kraven to hunt down Gwen Stacy and Norman Osborn when they were both mutated into Man-Spiders in "Spider-Island, Part 3". He makes an appearance in "Seeds of Life", where he assists Whitney Frost / Madame Masque in breaking Doctor Octopus out of prison and brainwashing him as her servant. He and Osborn (as the Green Goblin) later attempt to ambush Spider-Man in the Hydra Base, but is stopped and incapacitated by Stormranger, and defeated in combat by Black Panther. He is later seen arrested along with Frost, Osborn, and the remaining Hydra operatives.
 * Kraven appears as a antagonist in Marvel: All New, All Different Chronicles, voiced by Phil Morris.
