Stegron

Creation & Design

Stegron was created by writer Gerry Conway and artist Ross Andru, first appearing in the early 1970s as a villain for Spider-Man. His design was inspired by dinosaurs, reflecting the fascination with prehistoric creatures during that era.

Early Years

Initially introduced as a foe for Spider-Man, Stegron was a scientist who transformed himself into a dinosaur-like creature. His early appearances focused on his battles with Spider-Man and his connection to the Lizard.

Character Development

Over the years, Stegron has evolved from a simple villain into a more complex character with ties to other major storylines in the Spider-Man universe. His interactions with other characters, particularly the Lizard, have added depth to his motivations and actions.

Cultural Reception

Stegron has received mixed reviews from fans and critics, often seen as a lesser-known villain compared to Spider-Man's rogues' gallery. However, his unique dinosaur theme has garnered a niche following.
