The First Appearance of Doctor Octopus! Atomic scientist Dr. Otto Octavius was given the name Doctor Octopus by his peers due to the four remote-controlled "arms" he had created. Then on a fateful day during an experiment, an explosion fused the metal arms to his body. Now on the verge of insanity, Dr. Octopus begins his criminal career as one of Spider-Man's greatest villains.
