  • Kraven the Hunter
  • Public

Sergei Kravinoff is a Russian aristocrat whose family fled to America after the Revolution, and he grew into one of the world's greatest big-game hunters. A jungle potion gave him superhuman abilities and long life, and he set out to prove his supremacy by hunting Spider-Man, also joining the Sinister Six. In Kraven's Last Hunt he buried Spider-Man alive, impersonated him, then took his own life. His family later resurrected him under a curse, and he finally died again during a confrontation with his heir.
