Spidey burglar chronology?

Hi,

There doesn't seem to be a chronology for the burglar that shot Uncle Ben. I realize he's basically nameless, but I would think he's an important enough character in the MU to deserve a listing.

If there's interest, SpiderFan has a list of (some? all?) appearances by the Burglar, but they are out of order:
Aug 1962 App: Amazing Fantasy #15
Jul 1967 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #50
Jul 1968 App: Spectacular Spider-Man Magazine #1 (Story 1)
Mar 1971 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #94
May 1989 App: Spider-Man: Parallel Lives "Spider-Man: Parallel Lives"
Jun 1978 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #181
Aug 1992 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #365 (Story 1)
Jun 1992 App: Spectacular Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #189 (Story 1)
Jul 1992 App: Web of Spider-Man #90
Sep 1992 App: Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #26 (Story 1)
Jun 1979 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #193
Jul 1979 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #194
Aug 1979 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #195
Oct 1979 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #197
Nov 1979 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #198
Dec 1979 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #199
Jan 1980 App: Amazing Spider-Man (Vol. 1) #200 Burglar dies
Dec 1998 App: Spider-Man: Chapter One #1
Feb 2001 App: Ultimate Spider-Man #4
Mar 2001 App: Ultimate Spider-Man #5

He also appears in ASM 170.

Good list man. To note, his appearances in Ultimate SM are not Earth-616 relevant.

Another question, is Chapter One canon?

I came across references that the burglar's name is Carradine (such as his daughter named Jessica Carradine). Is this confirmed and if so, from where?

oh right, i just copied and pasted without double checking. of course you're right about ultimate. from what i understand, chapter one is also non-canon / non-616 (at least for mcp purposes). on a closer inspection, the list above may actually be relatively close to chronological order, by i can't confirm that.

i haven't come across the burglar being named carradine in my own readings, so i can't confirm that.

He is still unnamed in Spidey canon. Dennis "Spike" Carradine is his non-continuity name.

I was surprised to see the Burglar does not actually have an entry here. Spiderfan gets most of their appearance lists from the MCP as far as I know. Its not too long of a list to piece together his full chronology if someone wants to take it on. A lot of his backstory is told in ASM 200 so those FB's would be first. That list is missing the extended re-telling of Spidey's origin in PPTSS 60/2 though.

And yes, Chapter One is, thankfully, non-canon.
