Sin-Eater has made a comeback in the Sins Rising story arc (MCU), a familiar face for Spiderman’s Fans. Is Sin-Eater a good guy now? He first debuted in The Spectacular Spiderman #107 and was quite famous among the citizens of New York City.
Sin-Eater kills a group of the villain in front of the crowd in MCU. The bystanders present there applauded him for his actions and said that they need more heroes like him. Even a bystander compared him with The Punisher. Spiderman also feels puzzled by seeing the way the Sin-Eater was reacting. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the psychopath killer, Sin-Eater doing good things.
Who is the Sin-Eater?
For those who don’t know Sin-Eater, he holds the ability to wipe away the sins of the people as he shoots. He doesn’t kill anyone but gives them a new life with reformation. Also, if they had any power before the Sin-Eater shot them they will automatically lose that power and will have a fresh beginning. Sin-Eater is also seen as an Anti-Hero.
However, it is still uncertain if Sin-Eater has fully transformed into a good being. Even if he does, he won’t be the first superhero villain of the Spiderman to transform. The Punisher was also a villain to Spiderman. He wanted to kill Spiderman but then transformed into a popular hero. He was first featured in The Amazing Spiderman #129. Apart from The Punisher, other villains who later became superheroes are Sandman, Black Cat, and Morbius.
Who is the most famous Spiderman Villain turned Superhero?
Eddie Brock’s Venom is no doubt the most famous Spiderman Villain turned Superhero. Eddie Brock shares some similar traits with Sin-Eater. As both must deal with the murderous character in their head. For several years, Eddie fought the evil voice inside of him. And eventually, shut it off forever to walk on the path of good deeds.
One of his allies, Stanley Carter wasn’t very good at dealing with his inner demons. His murderous tendencies ended on with his end.
Sin-Eater has till now not shown any signs of his murderous tendencies. Also, he shares the split personality with Norman Osborn. He has also portrayed himself as a hero before. Maybe Sin-Eater is following the footsteps of Norman Osborn and is just acting to be good.
Spiderman has many more things to do than just finishing the villains. Peter is fighting his conflicting thoughts regarding Stanley. He is not liking the fact the people for he suits up and saves are now calling Sin-Eater as their hero. Will Spiderman stop the newly reformed Sin-Eater or will he also accept him as the new hero?
The Amazing Spiderman #46: Sins Rising 2 by Nick Spencer is now released. The art team consists of colorist David Curiel, Penciler Marcelo Ferreira, and inker Roberto Poggi.
