In the heart of New York City during the 1930s, Peter Parker loses his Uncle Ben to the Goblin and his carnie cronies. Afterward, he spends his time helping others at the homeless shelter that his Aunt May runs. He is angry at the death of his uncle, at the injustices of the world. His passion for justice catches the eye of Ben Urich, a photographer at The Daily Bugle, at a rally where May stands on a soapbox and speaks out against the corrupt system that runs their city. When Goblin’s Enforcers attack May and Peter, Ben defends May and Peter, and ultimately takes Peter under his wing at the Bugle. Peter confides in Ben about finding his uncle Ben killed and torn apart with rope marks on his body. He blames the Goblin’s cronies and seeks to bring them to justice. When Peter discovers Ben is a heroin addict, drugged and unable to answer his phone, he gets a tip meant for the “Spider” that leads him to Goblin’s goons at the Rooney Imports Warehouse on the pier. It’s here that they’re picking up a shipment of antiques previously headed to the Metropolitan Museum, and in dropping one of the containers, a bunch of spiders are let loose. One of them bites Peter and tells him a bite brings death to those of evil intent, but will bestow the curse of power on him instead. Peter receives arachnid-like abilities from the bite and becomes Spider-Man.
