“All these souls... lost and alone. I can save them. I can cure them. There's no need to stop me, Peter.”
―Lizard to Peter Parker
Dr. Curt Connors (formerly known as the Lizard) is the main antagonist of the 2012 film The Amazing Spider-Man and a minor antagonist in Spider-Man: No Way Home. He is a former associate/friend of Doctor Richard Parker and the mentor/friend of Peter Parker who took a serum embedded with lizard DNA to regrow his missing arm. However, the serum not only granted this but also turned Dr. Connors into a lizard-humanoid.
Lizard is later cured by Peter Parker and subsequently arrested.
Marvel Cinematic Universe[]
Spider-Man: No Way Home[]
At least nine years since this happened, Curt is transferred in to the Marvel Cinematic Universe due to a spell by Doctor Strange botched by the universe's Peter Parker. His universe's Peter cures him with the same anti-serum, thus saving him from his fate and possibly, George Stacy and his daughter Gwen's tragedy from occuring in The Amazing Spider-Man and 2.
