[edit] "Working Stiff"
Writer: Brian Michael Bendis
Pencils: Mark Bagley

Publication Date: June 2001
• Peter fights Herman Schultz (The Shocker) who is in the process of robbing an armored car. He easily dispatches Herman then is mistaken for another robber by the armored car personnel, who offer him the car’s contents. Peter bounds away and leaves the scene, telling the personnel to call the cops.
• Peter overhears a conversation between Flash, Kong, Liz and some other of his classmates saying that the Daily Bugle is offering money for pictures of Spider-Man. Peter subsequently snaps some photos of himself in costume.
• Peter arranges a meeting with Joe Robertson at the Bugle to sell his photographs. He interrupts a conversation between Robbie Robertson, J. Jonah Jameson, and Ben Urich to show them his photos. JJJ dismisses most of the photos as “crap” but buys one of them for fifty dollars.
• While Peter is at the Bugle, Betty Brant has an explosive outburst over trying to maintain the Bugle’s webpage. Peter offers some advice on the script of the page and corrects it. JJJ observes this and offers Peter a job at the Daily Bugle to maintain the company’s web site. Peter calls Aunt May to confirm that this is ok, and allows her to speak to JJJ.
• Peter has a nightmare concerning the events of his uncle’s death. This inspires him to research his uncle’s killer by means of the driver’s license he removed from the burglar’s wallet in Ultimate Spider-Man 5. He performs this search at the Daily Bugle, using the Bugle’s archives as a reference tool. During this research, he finds that the burglar is connected to an organized crime lord named Wilson Fisk, aka the Kingpin. He asks Robbie Robertson about Fisk and is informed that the Bugle attempted to go after Fisk once, and in response, Fisk bought stock in the company.
Notes:
- First appearance of Ultimate Shocker and Betty Brant.
- Neither Herman Schultz’s name nor alias is mentioned in this issue, though Peter joking refers to him as “The Vibrator”.
- The conversation that Peter interrupts at the Bugle is regarding a creature living in the sewer. This most likely refers to Curt Connors (The Lizard).
- The scene where JJJ dismisses Peter’s photos as “Crap, crap, crap…” was included in the feature film of Spider-Man (2002).
- Peter identifies himself as being “Sixteen. Well Sort of.”
- The burglar’s name and address are kept illegible when showing the driver’s license.
