This is not the first time Krondon will portray Tombstone in a Marvel project. The American rapper and actor previously voiced the character in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Additionally, the star played Tobias Whale in The CW superhero drama Black Lightning.

Created by Peter David and Roger Cruz in 2006, El Muerto debuted in Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #6.

The character has since served as an anti-hero in the Marvel universe.
