there is no chronology for this character that i could see. i can't remember how the mcp counts page numbers; the ones listed below are if we only count content pages (ie no ads), starting from with the splash page as 1.

BROTHER POWER/ACHMED KORBA
PPTSS 12-FB (12:3-12:5)
PPTSS 13-FB
PPTSS 12-FB (13:2-13:4)
PPTSS 3-BTS
PPTSS 4
PPTSS 5
PPTSS 7
PPTSS 8
PPTSS 12
PPTSS 13
PPTSS 14
PPTSS 15

also, should sha shan's entry be changed to SISTER SUN/SHA SHAN?

from http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/bropowsp.htm
(Spectacular Spider-Man II#3-BTS) - Flash Thompson, who had met Sha Shan during a military action sometime before, saw her working as waitress. He ran up to greet her, but she fled from him, and Flash was thrown out of the restaurant for creating a disturbance.
...
Spectacular Spider-Man II#4 references Korba as the same guy that had thrown them out of the restaurant in the previous issue. It was not the same guy we saw in issue#3, but Korba was the owner of the restaurant, so he may have just been off-panel.
the reference in pptss 4 is a thought from peter when he sees korba: "it's the guy who hustled us out last time!"

Uh... is this based on comics you've read, or on the Appendix's listings? Because the MCP only accepts stuff you can substantiate for yourself.

no, i read them. i just had that window open anyway and it was easier to copy/paste than type that up myself. the appendix doesn't have the page/panel breakdowns, for example.

I peeked inside my copy of "Essential Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man Vol. 1" and can confirm Newtron's observation.
