Dr. Curt Conner is a doctor who turned himself into a creature called the Lizard or Lizard-Man.

Biography[]

Curt went down to the Florida Everglades to study the reptiles and swamps there. While there he began researching Swamp Fever. However, he turned himself into the Lizard. Lizard then planned to create a reptile army to help him take over the world. Spider-Man appeared and the two fought. Curt was cured and went back to take care of his family.

Later, he found the Fountain of Youth and became the prisoner of Juan Ponce de León who was protecting the fountain. Spider-Man appeared, rescued Curt and fountain was destroyed by accident.

Over the next year, Curt discarded his swamp fever research. He instead wanted to look into giving reptiles higher intelligence. One of his creations, Reptilla, captured him. Spider-Man appeared again and freed him.

Background[]

Lizard was voiced by Gillie Fenwick in "Where Crawls the Lizard" and "Fountain of Terror" and by Paul Soles in "Conner's Reptiles".

Conner's name spelling is likely an error on behalf of production. The same happened with Spider-Man's "Night of the Lizard" but was corrected in later episodes.

In the Comics[]

Lost his arm when he was a medic in the army. Became the Lizard to replace his missing arm. This was likely changed as to avoid the topic of amputation in a children's series.
