Dr. Otto Octavius alias Doctor Octopus (in Season 2 The Superior Spider-Man), was a teacher at Horizon High and Osborn Academy. He was once the leader of the Sinister Six before the group disbanded after the members snapped out of mind control. He is the secondary antagonist of the first season, and the main antagonist of the first half of the second season. He is voiced by Scott Menville.
While originally using his mechanical appendages and intellect for good, Otto later turned to a life of crime after Oscorp Industries CEO Norman Osborn tricked him into believing his friends had betrayed him while also stealing Otto's research for himself. The combination of Norman's underhanded actions and his own superiority complex have led Otto to believe it is better to control people rather then protect them.
In Goblin War Part 4, Otto sacrifices himself to save all of New York from Adrian Toomes piloting the Goblin Mech, dying in the arms of Spider-Man and in the view of Horizon High as a hero.
While Otto's was dying he said his final worlds to Peter that the world needs Spider-Man more then it needs him and started to fade away into a light.

When Peter presents his invention late, Otto failed him
At the Stark Expo, Otto used his mechanical tentacles to retrieve the V-252 after it was removed from Spider-Man's body. Later, Otto tells Max Modell that he will be upgrading his tentacles so that would be linked to his mind. However, Max forbade him from doing so. Then, Norman Osborn offers Otto additional funding for his research.
While Spider-Man and Otto are able to drive the Dynamo off, she had caused the reactor to go into meltdown; while Spider-Man attempted to shut it down, Otto wouldn't have his work interfered with, and attempted to shut it down himself, resulting in his robotic arms being fused to his back. While initially downtrodden at his situation, Peter comforts him and Otto is convinced to team up with Spider-Man as "the Octopus". After several confrontations with the Lizard resulting in disasters, Otto is convinced to join Osborn Academy.
Though he was annoyed that Norman Osborn started the Octobots projects without his approval, Otto later assisted in the fight against Rhino, who was used by Jackal to turn the students and one security guard into Rhinos. Upon Jackal's hideout being found by Peter Parker, Gwen Stacy, and Harry Osborn, Norman arrived with the Oscorp Commandos consisting of Otto Octavius, Vulture, Rhino, Alistair Smythe, and Oliver Osnick. When Jackal arrived, Otto defected to his side while embracing the moniker of "Doctor Octopus", and also revealed that he mind-controlled the other Oscorp Commandos and re-branded the group into the Sinister Five.
In the episode "Hobgoblin Part 1," he and the Sinister Five attack Max Modell since he blames him for all his problems and attempts to take over New York City. Despite brainwashing Spider-Man into becoming part of the Sinister Six, Doctor Octopus is thwarted by the Hobgoblin who frees Spider-Man. When the other members of the Sinister Five are freed from the mind control, they chase after Doctor Octopus.

He was rejected but was allowed to gather his research from Horizon High. After failing to convince Spider-man to allow him help him catch the Wild Pack, he tries to take it on his own hand. Doctor Octopus appeared later to help Spider-man fight against the Wild Pack. After helping Spider-man get back the Neural Cortex, they returned back to Horizon High where Otto helped Aleksei revert back from his rhino transformation. He was then allowed to return back into being Horizon High's professor.
In Season 2 Episode 12, "Brain Drain" Doctor Octopus was revealed to be mastermind that put a bounty on Spider-man and actually survived the previous battle. He was trapped in The Living Brain, an invention by Miles Morales.
In Episode 13, "The Living Brain", Doctor Octopus captures a weakened Spider-Man and switches minds with him, leaving Spider-Man trapped in the Living Brain while Doctor Octopus inhabits Spider-Man's body.
