Character
Eddie Brock worked as a reporter for the Daily Globe and investigated the serial criminal known as the Sin-Eater. A man named Emil Gregg confessed to Brock and supplied information that convinced him he had found the culprit. Brock published a series of articles that identified Gregg as the Sin-Eater. Spider-Man later captured the real offender and revealed him as police detective Stan Carter. The discovery destroyed Brock’s professional reputation because his reporting had supported a false confession. The Daily Globe dismissed him and other publications refused to employ him. Brock blamed Spider-Man for the loss of his career and directed his anger toward the hero rather than accepting responsibility for the failed investigation.

The kind of prey that justifies the hunt.*
