This character was in an ep of Spidey and his Amazing Friends, but it wasnt an actual guy it was an entity from a meteorite that formed its body from a swarm of bees and turned people into drones with a ray from its eyes. Now THATS odd!

to this:

and back again anytime she wants.

 

Thanks. Dang, she's pretty hot in the first panel.

 

I'm surprised Porcupine isn't in the list.

Lockjaw does NOT belong on this list.
