Spider-Man 2: 10 Villain Boss Fights We Need To See

10. The Jackal

It might be bad form to start off your "Villains Who Must Appear in Spider-Man 2" list with one synonymous with potentially the worst Spider-Man story-arc ever, but equally, is it not also true we all have a *bit* of a soft spot for the Clone Saga deep down... right?

Ok yes you can essentially boil that affection down to the most superficial "Scarlet Spider in that denim hoodie!" level, but at the same time, the Clone Saga occupies a weird space in Spidey's history. It's synonymous with crap the bed levels of bad storytelling, yet it also comprises a part of the character's peak popularity in the 1990s. (Plus, again, Ben Reilly is the best.)

With that in mind, it wouldn't be beyond Insomniac's talents to put their own spin on the Clone Saga, especially since they've already teased the principal antagonist of the clone affair, Miles Warren, aka the Jackal, in the first game.

As seen in one of the collectable backpacks, Warren is the professor who graded one of Pete's college papers. It would be pretty cool to have him appear in the full sequel, potentially as a scientist on Oscorp's payroll, and with a boss battle that pitted Peter and Miles against a number of Spider clones.
