Nobel Prize-winning biochemist Dr. Michael Morbius discovered he was dying, a rare disorder dissolving his blood cells. Not wanting to distress his fiancée Martine, Morbius began secretly working on a cure. With the aid of his partner Emil Nikos, Morbius attempted using distilled fluids from bats to stay his disease. While experimenting with such serums, Morbius had Nikos run an electrical shock through his system. The combination profoundly changed Michael’s body, transforming him into something resembling a vampire, now driven by a blinding hunger for blood.

Overall
Morbius as a Marvel Legends is far overdue. This is one of those Marvel characters that has a cult following but are very in the absence in the Hasbro line up. The head sculpt captures the fierce vampire attack expression and makes for some awesome poses. Anybody who was on the fence about just breaking down and buying a case should start to see the core value of the character selection of this wave. Bottom line is another awesome figure!
