10 More Comic Book Teams That Need Their Own Movie

5. The Superior Foes Of Spider-Man

Not every villain wants to end the world or make mankind bend the knee. Some are just people looking for a payday.

Written by current Amazing Spider-Man scribe Nick Spencer, the Superior Foes of Spider-Man are a group of working class bad guys who aren't really a threat to anyone, and who you've probably never heard of, barring Shocker. But their ineptitude, coupled with the series' humour, is what makes them so likeable. Imagine Breaking Bad with spandex. Except these guys were never really good to begin with. This isn't the best analogy. WHAT'S THAT OVER THERE.

Flawless segway. After so many world-ending threats, it'd be nice to get back to basics on a smaller scale. And if the characters involved are shameless cheaters and cowards, then so be it. Not everyone wants to rule the world.
