Actually, according to Stan himself, Betty is younger than Pete….the whole “older” thing is a common myth that I’ve seen some seasoned Spidey writers even fall into. She’s working there because the family had money problems due to her brothers gambling debts and mothers hospital bills.

That is true, but given the timeline we have for that and other established sources, we can say for sure that it is Betty we are seeing in this issue.
Didn’t UTOS explain that Betty’s mom worked as JJJ’s secretary before Betty herself took over?
Oops. Did I say “she”? I meant he. Sorry Steve.
Tell me about the age downgrade. In this panel, it looks like she drew Bette like she was in her late forties.
