Although Doctor Octavius is always in his lab, after the first time chasing and capturing someone, he enjoyed and stated that he should have done it more often and that the thrill excites him. Octavius has shown to have no fear of getting in killed, shown to still chase after Spider-Man while water leaks into his lab.

Early life
Octavius was friends with Doctor Curt Connors at college, then started working for Oscorp. Doctor Octavius got into an accident which caused him to stop breathing. Fortunately, Norman funded technology to let Octavius breath through other ways and Octavius started serving Norman since that day.

Present
Goblin ordered Doctor Octopus to capture Spider-Man and to create equipment to sell. Octopus hired the Frightful Four to do the job. He received from Wizard footage of Spider-Man. After the Frightful Four were defeated, he got scolded by Osborn and decided to not fail again.

Doctor Octopus send an Octobot after Spider-Man to get a blood sample. Spider-Man crushed the octobot, but not before it got a blood sample which the tiny octobot brought to him. Doctor Octopus created from the blood sample, a symbiote, by taking the dangerous aspects out of it. However, the symbiote escaped and got childed by Norman, he told Norman that the symbiote went back to Spider-Man. After the symbiote seemingly was destroyed, Norman ordered Octopus to create a stronger version of the symbiote, Doctor Octopus has promised that he will.

Doctor Octopus assigned Taskmaster to find Spider-Man and bring him back to him. When Taskmaster came back from his failed mission, Doctor Octopus went into a violent destructive rage.

Doctor Octopus knew that Harry Osborn was Venom and kept it a secret from his father, Norman Osborn. But, when Harry transformed into Venom and attacked his father, Octavious claimed to have never known. Osborn was still impressed with the symbiote and wanted Octavious to make more symbiotes like it. Octavious agreed to it and told Osborn he would need more time. Osborn objected, explaining that time was something he did not have.

Going after Spider-Man
Octavius sent out Whirlwind to get some information from Spider-Man. In his lab he was scolded by Norman for his failures. Octavius told him that he would go capture Spider-Man. Norman send him mockingly off and shutted the communications off. Enraged by Norman, he destroyed the screen and went after Spider-Man. He found Spider-Man at an amusement park and started a fight against the spider. Octavius enjoyed the hunt of the spider, after getting a shock from his tazzer by Spider-Man, he threw him in the hall of mirrors. He saw a mirror reminding of his past self, interrupted by Spider-Man's remark, he finally grabbed Spider-Man and electrocuted him into unconscioussness.

Octavius brought him into his underwater lab to dissect him. He reported to Norman that he caught Spider-Man. After hearing the mockings of Norman, Octavius decided that he would do it on his own and cuts the communications off. Before Octavius could dissect Spider-Man, the latter woke up and fought against Octavius. Octavius tried to harm Spider-man, but to no avail he dodged every attack, after he failed to hold Spider-Man, Norman let Octavius knew that he was fired. The lab blew up leaking the water in. The water level reached Octavius and Spider-Man, Octavius drowned but was saved by Spider-Man, who threw him out of the lab.



Soon, Doctor Octopus returned in an armor similar to that of Iron Man's, with the addition of the mechanical arms. After a two-versus-one brawl, Octopus was defeated. Unbenknownst to the heroes, Octopus was captured by Norman once again and was rehired, Octopus now restrained and refined to a recuperation tank.

Soon, Doctor Octopus was placed in a green, spherical, and moveable version of the recuperating tank and was given new goggles, with his tentacles removed and his head shaved. Doctor Octopus began his run by sending the Frightful Four at Spider-Man once again. However, it was later revealed to be a distraction, one of the Octobots attacking Spider-Man and his team taking him to his new lair. After revealing that Venom came from Spider-Man's DNA, Octavius became engulfed in his own monologue, providing Spider-Man with enough time to escape. They battled once again, with Norman Osborn then tasing Spider-Man. Octopus retreated to a new battlesuit of squid-like design, and injected Norman with an experimental green serum. Spider-Man's team arrived in the middle of one of Octopus's monologues and he was forced to confront them as Osborn transformed. He set fire to his own lab in the scuffle, and witnessed Norman's transformation into the Green Goblin. He attached a control collar to the Goblin so that he would be in full control of him; unfortunately, the Goblin was able to tear it off and in the process incapacitate Octopus's battlesuit. He was then thrown around by the creature and his battlesuit continually being smashed by the Goblin's rage-filled fists. It was here that the Goblin noticed that the team had retreated, and went after them, leaving Doc Ock for dead.

But then he was revealed to be alive when he was going after his serums in one of his lab and he was foiled by Spider-Man and S.H.I.E.L.D. Later when Dr. Curt Conners transforms into The Lizard and went after him. Doc Ock told Lizard that he transformed into a monster. When Lizard attacks him he tells Spider-Man that they have to team up to beat him. Right in the middle of the fight Doc Ock betrays him and escapes leaving Spider-Man with Lizard.



He later recuited Electro, Rhino, Kraven the Hunter and the Beetle and caused Spider-Man to come to his lab and made him fight the Sinister Six, including the Lizard under his control. However, he was defeated when the Lizard resisted his control and Spider-Man took out his tentacles. He was then locked away in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s new headquarters along with the remaining Sinister Six members.
