#morbius the living vampire 1992

About Sanae

Alright, so Sanae Kochiya

Is known to have been a geek as a human in the outside world (referencing pop culture often in multiple of her appearances)

Has very specifically been shown to be into science-related fiction (her interest in aliens in UFO, her absolute joy at being able to go to the moon, her Soku story involving her thinking that Hisotensoku is a giant robot)

Is a noted eccentric

Used to read "occult magazines" when she was young around the turn of the century (Vs. Patchouli win dialogue, Soku) These things we know about her factually

We also know that in the outside world (our world)

American comic books have a niche in Japan (they are not sold in all book stores and the more fashionable shops that sell them sell them in English for the art [Justin Sevakis w/ ANN, 2018])

Most Japanese people who read comics read comics from the Big 2 (Marvel, DC)

At some point, American comics were serialized in Japanese magazines (Justin Sevakis w/ ANN, 2018)

There was a huge boom in extreme/grimdark themes and tropes in 90s American comics

Spider-Man antagonist Michael Morbius had a solo run starting in 1992

Thus, we can infer

Sanae, as an eccentric and a nerd, has probably read some American comics

Sanae would have been reading comics from the Big 2

Sanae, who read magazines in the 90s, could have read those comics in the 90s (if not through magazines, then through collected editions)

Sanae would probably lean more into Marvel, as Marvel is heavy on sci-fi elements

Sanae would be in the middle of the era of 90s grimdark

Leaning more Marvel, Sanae would definitely had read Spider-Man if she read western comics

What I'm saying is, there is a non-zero chance that Sanae Kochiya has read Morbius, The Living Vampire (1992). Now, her opinions of Morbius, at least in my opinion, depends on when she started reading/what issues she read, but that doesn't change the fact that the chance that she has knowledge of Morbius exists.

Hi can u please rant about your favorite thing about Morbius? He seems really cool but I don't know squat about where to start 👉👈

YES YES YES I WILL!

One of my favorite things about him is how he’s often the antithesis of a vampire and is a victim of circumstance.

While he is obviously a “living vampire,” he doesn’t really act like a vampire. He’s genuinely a kind man who seeks to cure himself of his condition instead of relishing in the idea of vampirism. There’s obviously the physical differences too, like him being fine in the sunlight and still being able to eat garlic (he actually mentions liking it in Morbius (2013) #1, which is just a little fun fact). While he is selfish in many scenarios, it’s never an extreme selfish action like that of your normal vampire. In fact, he’s attempted suicide on multiple occasions to both save himself and others from his bloodlust.

As for being a victim of circumstance, I think Spider-Man puts it best:

(Though I’m going to be entirely real, spider-man needs to stfu about “Oh I can’t stop saving people” like there is a VERY big difference between moral obligation and biological needs)

Okay! Now that I’ve told you what I like about him, let’s get on to the recommendations.

Here’s the solo runs: Although I do think the Morbius (2013) run is flawed in some aspects, it’s probably the easiest point to jump into the character. The 1992 run and 2020 run are also essential, and Morbius: Bond of Blood (2021) are gonna be some key points to go over, too.

As for Morbius stories in other books, Marvel Zombies 4 (2010) and Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #622, #679.1, #699.1 and #688-#690 are essential. Plus his very first appearance in Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #101.

Keep in mind that these are just starting points. There’s a ton more content, but I’m not gonna tell you to jump straight into Adventure into Fear because… you’re gonna need stamina for that one… Maybe I’m just a tiny tot but my brain shut down while trying to read the dated language.

Anyways, have fun reading!
