Vulture is the alias of several supervillains in Marvel Comics, the most prominent of whom is Adrian Toomes. Toomes is an inventive but maniacal genius who designed a special flight suit that allows him to fly at high speeds. Initially, Toomes turned to crime after being cheated by his business partner and became one of Spider-Man's primary enemies and a founding member of the Sinister Six. Other characters who have used the "Vulture" moniker include Blackie Drago, Clifton Shallot, and Jimmy Natale, each with their own different origins and backgrounds. The Vulture has appeared in various Spider-Man media, including animated series, video games, and live-action films. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Adrian Toomes, played by Michael Keaton, first appeared in *Spider-Man: Homecoming* (2017) and made a cameo in *Morbius* (2022). He is typically portrayed as an elderly but physically strong villain who uses his flight abilities and technology to commit crimes, frequently clashing with Spider-Man.
