Dr. Michael Morbius has been both an enemy and ally of Spider-Man in the comics as Morbius the Living Vampire. Stephen Ditko is the co-creator of "Spider-Man", along with Stan Lee. Dr. Curt Connors eventually becomes the Lizard, another of Spidey's foes!

To get back at her, he takes his lab partner, Gwen Stacy, to the Jazz Room, where Mary Jane now works as a waitress/singer. As they walk toward the entrance of the Jazz room Eddie sees them from across the street. He is not in the best of spirits because of recent events.

Eddie sees Peter taking Gwen to the Jazz Room after being fired from the Daily Bugle. Harry and Flint are nowhere to be seen. Mary Jane is working at the Jazz Room and doesn't see Peter until he starts playing the piano when she's about to start singing.

Answer: No
