I write to request a section that briefly summarizes the essence of the character. The existing character description is too detailed to be useful to someone looking for a quick answer to "who is Mysterio". Such a query will likely be more common given the up coming movie. I propose 2 or 3 paragraphs that summarize Mysterio's powers, origin, motivation, one or two highest profile exploits. Thoughts? Mr.trippple ( talk) 14:41, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I might have found an interesting piece of information on an old pc DOS game called "The Amazing Spiderman". It just so happens Mysterio was the main villain of the game. It was made by Oxford Digital Enterprises with Paragon Software. I'm not going to edit anything, but maybe if this could be included in the video game section, it'd be cool. If you wanted to check the game out, I think it's now downloadable for free because it's out of date. But I bought it myself years ago. -Anonymous
Whoops, my bad. I just looked it up. You already mentioned it. My bad. -Anonymous
I removed the following from the article because I really don't think RPG stats belong in Wikipedia. Since large numbers of these "vital stats" sections have been added to various articles, I'm using Talk:Strength level (comics) to discuss this issue in general. Bryan 07:52, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)
You should not delete hight, weight, hair color, eye color, or other facts that are about the character and have nothing to do with an RPG. In most articles about characters from any series, they have basic physical looks listed under their name.
Seriously will however it is stop deleting my contribution, i've now found a reliable source! Do I deleted ur information - NO! Its rude and inconsiderate.
I didn't realise that i need sources. sorry.
That statement came from a reliable source actually. Bruce Campbell has stated that he will be annoying Spiderman in the new film and Mysterio tends to annoy Spiderman alot in the comics. Its worth putting it down on this article for now. Look at the pages for the Vulture and Electro, both there pages state they are candidates for the fourth villain. Mysterio has a stronger case than them. Now I suggest you put that information back up.
Yes, we now know how Beck came back form the dead. Boo-Yah, mystery solved, at leats for anyone who read X-Statix Presents: Dead Girl. Please deign not to remove the info about his ressurection, as Marvel Comics themselves confirmed it. SaliereTheFish 10:16, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
I notice the line about there being hints in the books that he's gay has been removed, with the edit summary saying it's "bull and stupid". I'm inclined to agree, but it's also definitely there. They aren't even subtle hints; we're talking lines like "I am not, by life preference, as constitutionally solicitous to the ladies as Adrian." It's not a big deal, but since it seems to be a significant difference between book-Mysterio and comics-Mysterio (who has never had this implied, as far as I know), I figured it was worth mentioning.

Huh, thats weird... I'm certain he was hetero in the comics and every other appearance. I assume this was just the authors modification?
Unnecessary "tell the story" component in Video Games and Novels. This is an encyclopedia, not a fan site. Also, the Television section should be trimmed, his cartoon appearances (each, which are pretty much two sentences) don't need a headline. DCincarnate ( talk) 17:47, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
This article suffers from an excessively long plot summary, and needs a massive culling. As well, there's limited, at best, real world notability and content here. I"ll take this on over the next week or two. ThuranX ( talk) 04:26, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
Whilst this picture is a very good representation of the character Mysterio... it's the wrong Mysterio. The Mysterio depicted in the picture at the top of the page is actually Francis Klum, the third Mysterio. The picture needs to be changed to a picture of Quentin Beck, since this is his article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.242.26.82 ( talk) 16:22, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
The Mysterio (Francis Klum) character is not even remotely notably on its own, and can easily be trimmed to a paragraph and merged into the proper section. This article needs its plot condensed significantly as well, and some real-world context. - Fandraltastic ( talk) 19:46, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
Since there were no dissenting opinions over 4 months after the merge was proposed I went ahead and
merged the articles. The 'Fictional character biography' for Quentin Beck could still use some shortening in the sections that refer to Berkhart and Klum.

User:Burningblue52 inserted a claim that director Sam Raimi "revealed" something, and he cites it to Comicbookmovie.com, which I'm not sure is a reliable source. In any event, the information does not come from there but from io9, which Comicbookmovie.com even says, and it is not Sam Raimi saying this but some unidentified person named Jeffrey Henderson. Unless we have Sam Raimi saying something, we can't claim Sam Raimi said something. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 01:23, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

It has been reported that actor Jake Gyllenhaal was in talks for playing Mysterio in the Spider Man Homecoming sequel, so should that be added in the film section of the article or will we have to wait it out until June 2019 and see? Oblow14 ( talk) 23:56, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
The article as I write this says Mysterio has no superpowers, yet in the trailer for the live-action 2019 film Spiderman: Far from Home as portrayed by Jake Gyllenhaal he seems to be able to emit powerful energy beams from his hands and can fly, or am I interpreting the trailer wrong? If the film Mysterio does indeed have biological superpowers then an editor needs to note that in the article. I'm just passing through. 5Q5 ( talk) 13:32, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
The article describes Mysterio battling Spider-Man with robots of the X-Men, then says, “After this Spider-Man gets a card that enables him to go on to battle Sandman.” This may be true, but I can’t see what this last means, in relation to Mysterio as a character; if it does mean something (e.g., was the “card” from Mysterio?), what is it?
