The Serpent-Men are a fictional race in the Marvel Universe, based on the Serpent Men created by Robert E. Howard.

The original Serpent-Men were a race of reptilian semi-humanoids who were created by the demon Set and who ruled areas of prehistoric Earth. Due to the efforts of Kull and Conan, the original Serpent-Men became extinct about 8,000 years ago. However, since then, numerous human worshippers of Set and his demonic progeny such as Sligguth have taken on reptilian characteristics to different extents. Some, like the people of Starkesboro [Marvel Premiere #4] , are only partially transformed. Others become hosts for the spirits of long-dead original Serpent-Men, who transform their bodies into duplicates of their own, complete with their power to take the form of any human.

Some modern Serpent-Men encountered Spider-Man in the modern era. [Marvel Team-Up #111]
