History: (Spider-Man cartoon episode - "Arsenic & Aunt May" (fb)/Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "Along Came Spidey" (fb)) - The man who would become the Burglar stole money from a television station. He ran past Spider-Man (at the time a rising celebrity) but the costumed youth did nothing as the thief made a clean getaway. The Burglar later broke into the home of Ben and May Parker. Encountering the owners, the Burglar shot Ben Parker, killing the older man. Fleeing to a warehouse by the docks, the Burglar attempted to wait out the surrounding police when Spider-Man arrived and easily knocked the killer unconscious. The Burglar was then turned over to the police.  

Comments: Created by Creighton Barnes, Doug Booth, Francis X. Feighan, Donald F. Glut, Jack Hanrahan, Christy Marx, Larry Parr, Jeffrey Scott and Marvel Productions, Ltd. (see Appearances list for list of artists involved).

No voice actor was listed, despite him talking in Amazing Friends.

In "Arsenic & Aunt May," we never see him rob the TV station (but it is mentioned in a voice over). In that episode, Spider-Man knocks him out with his webbing and apparently leaves him inside the warehouse for the police. The fight scene goes a little different in Amazing Friends, ending with the Burglar being lowered down to the police on a web.

His stats are from his 616 counterpart.
