History
The "Cash Register Thief" was first seen robbing a convenience store, shortly after Peter Parker had argued with the clerk over being a two cents short to pay for a bottle of chocolate milk. After distracting the clerk, the thief stole money from the register and tossed Peter the milk bottle. Already upset, Peter let the thief go in order to spite the clerk for his greed. Very shortly after, the thief bumped into Ben Parker, Peter's uncle, dropping his gun. After wrestling for the weapon, the thief eventually got a grip on it and shot Ben Parker, killing him.
Peter later attempted to find and apprehend the killer in an act of revenge for his uncle's death, before donning the mantle of "Spider-Man" and becoming a hero.
