Back in 1977 in Amazing Spider-Man #167, it seems Len Wein or Ross Andru had
their spidey-senses tuned to garner a glimpse into the future. Seems years
before he played Uncle Ben, actor Cliff Roberston graced the pages of
Spider-Man on a movie marquee. The movie: Obsession, the story of a New Orleans
businessman whose "life is shattered when his wife and daughter are tragically
killed in a botched kidnap rescue attempt," according to the
Internet Movie Database (IMDB) Looks like
the writers were more or less making a passing allusion to Spidey's failed
rescue attempt on the kidnapped Gwen Stacy.
For more weirdness for those who like to look for weird connections, Cliff's
real name according to the IMDB is "Clifford Parker Robertson III"!!! So not
only does he have "Parker" in his name, but you can also associate his name
with major supporting character Joe "Robbie" Robertson! It was destiny to
cast him!
