Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse - 28 Easter Eggs & References Explained

13. Olivia Octavius

Doctor Octopus
Marvel Comics

Doctor Otto Octavius may be one of the most iconic supervillains going, but Olivia may have just beaten him in terms of sheer charisma.

In Miles' universe (the one created for Into the Spider-Verse - not the Ultimate Comics), Olivia Octavius is Doctor Octopus. Her friends call her Liv (which Aunt May does, in a possible throwback to their failed wedding), but her enemies call her Dock Ock. If anything, it's a fun twist on a classic character, and Kathryn Hahn's performance is one of the best in the film too.
