The Lizard[]

After S.H.I.E.L.D. raided one of Doctor Octopus' secret labs, Connors discovered a stash of mutagenic animal DNA Octavius planned to use to develop super-powered individuals, such as Venom and the Green Goblin. Dr. Connors planned to use this DNA for a different purpose - restoring human bodies. Namely, regrowing his own arm. Ignoring Spider-Man's warning about using it for such purposes, Connors took a serum of lizard DNA, growing back his lost arm. While it initially gave him great strength, Connors soon lost control of his mutation, transforming into a giant lizard creature. Spider-Man, with the help of his teammates and (surprisingly) Dr. Octopus, was able to put an end to the Lizard's rampage, transforming him back into Doctor Connors.^[6]

Rhino[]

The DNA formula is used again to create the Rhino.^[7]

When Spider-Man corners Lizard who temporarily changes back, Doctor Octopus re-activates the control collar on Lizard who knocks out Spider-Man as the rest of the Sinister Six arrive.
