HISTORY CONTINUED

days later, Parker returned home to find that his Uncle Ben had been mur-
dered by a burglar. A police officer informed him that the burglar had been
trailed to a nearby abandoned warehouse where the police had him trapped.
Grief-stricken, Parker rushed to the warehouse to seek vengeance. At the
warehouse Parker, as Spider-Man, easily captured the burglar and realized
that he was the same person that he had allowed to run past him earlier
that day in the TV studio. He realized that if he had acted responsibly
earlier, he might have prevented the death of his uncle. Filled with re-
morse, he realized that with power comes responsibility, and he vowed to
never shirk that responsibility again. Peter began to use his powers to fight
crime. He also tried to join the hero team Fantastic Four in their formative
stages but was dismissed. As a solo hero, Parker took pictures of his fights
as Spider-Man using an automatic camera, and then sold the pictures to the
Daily Bugle. Spider-Man rapidly became one of the most well-known citizens
in New York City, although, unfortunately, many people think of him as a
menace due to the editorials of Bugle's editor J. Jonah Jameson. Parker's
main concern about Aunt May was that, if she ever found out his secret
identity as Spider-Man, it would aggravate her weak heart condition. During
this time, Parker dated Betty Brant of the Daily Bugle, although Liz Allen
had a crush on him. At the same time, both Aunt May and her neighbour,
Aunt Anna, were encouraging Parker to date Anna's niece, Mary Jane Wat-
son, whom he would not meet until months later. After high school, Parker
enrolled in Empire State University, and divided his time as a hero, a stu-
dent, and photographer. Eventually, Parker moved into his own apartment. MORE HISTORY
