The Fly (Marvel Comics)

==Summary==
The Fly (formerly the Human Fly) once used to be Richard "Rick" Deacon, born in Newark, New Jersey, a small-time criminal who was shot by the police and left for dead after an unsuccessful kidnapping attempt, which was foiled by Spider-Man. Stumbling into the laboratory of Dr. Harlan Stillwell (whose brother Farley Stillwell created the Scorpion for J. Jonah Jameson), Deacon coerces the scientist into saving his life.
Overhearing an offer Jameson made with Stillwell to fund the creation of a new superhero, Deacon insists to be the subject of the experiment. Stillwell imprints the genetic coding of a common fly onto Deacon, empowering him and healing him of his bullet wounds. Deacon then kills Harlan Stillwell and uses his newfound powers to further his criminal ambitions.
He began to lose his grip on humanity and acted (and looked) more and more like a fly, being spotted eating garbage on scows. Years later, he became one of the many supervillains killed by Scourge who were resurrected by The Hood using the powers of Dormammu in Robbins's plan to kill Punisher. He gained an acid vomit as well as more resistant wings as result of an advanced mutation.
