Flint Marko/Sandman (Spider-Man 3/No Way Home)

Flint Marko is a crook who gained the ability to control and morph into sand after falling into a supercollider, becoming Sandman. During his criminal career, he clashed with Spider-Man.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) While many people consider Spider-Man 3 to not be a great movie, a lot of people agree that he was a very well-written antagonist in the movie, and one of the redeeming parts of the movie.
 * 2) His design is incredibly faithful to the comics, with him sporting his iconic green striped shirt and brown cargo pants from the comics.
 * 3) While he is a bad guy, he is just a misunderstood father who became a criminal to steal money just to help his sick daughter.
 * 4) While he did retcon Uncle Ben's death by shooting him, it was later revealed that he didn't want to shoot him, and he felt extremely bad about killing him.
 * 5) Thomas Haden Church does an excellent job at portraying him
 * 6) His fight scenes with Spider-Man were extremely awesome, most notable is the subway fight, where it shows off Spider-Man's new powers, and he puts up a great fight against him.
 * 7) During the final battle, he teamed up with Venom, and put up a great fight against Spider-Man, even almost badly injuring him.
 * 8) His redemption was very well executed, as he told Peter how he became a criminal and that he didn't want to become one, and Peter forgives him and tells him to help his daughter.
 * 9) His return in No Way Home was awesome, and he was successfully cured at the end of that movie.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Uncle Ben's death was retconned because of him.
 * 2) After his epic fight against Spider-Man in the subway, he wasn't seen again in Spider-Man 3 until the very end.
 * 3) In No Way Home, for no reason, he decides to team up with Green Goblin to kill Peter, even though he only wants to see his daughter again.
