Steve Hopkins’ name sounds familiar but I couldn’t tell you anything about him. I know about Philip Chang from (a) the PS4 game (and its Twitter feed – go @ChangBot) and a recent Spider-History podcast that talked about him, but even before them I remembered him from the Spider-Lizard/Schizoid Man Spec era.
No idea who Roger Hochberg or his girlfriend are.
@hornacek: Steve Hopkins and Philip Chang (background) were Peter’s fellow graduate students who appeared mostly in Spectacular Spider-Man in the ’70s. Roger Hochberg and his girlfriend Mia (foreground) only appeared in a handful of issues (mostly ASM).
Who are these friends? Are they actual named supporting cast people? Or temporary friends created for Marvel Team Up that were never seen again?
