Who knew peter had a sister? 0

No prize to first one that knows what happened to her.

Guessing she’s a mermaid like Lori Lemaris. 

[shadroch]

She is a cousin, not a sister.

Mermaid in a wheelchair, covered by a blanket, just like Superman’s Lori Lemaris. Not the only story using that idea. 

References to seaside and shells in first two panels.

It's from Strange Tales #97. The CGC label says "Story predates Amazing Fantasy #15 with 2 characters by Steve Ditko named Aunt May and Uncle Ben".

Opinion is divided as to the canonicity of their appearance.

I came across it  chronologically inside amazing fantasy 12 reprinted in ditto suspense omnibus 2. That’s just three issues before first asm!

does show strange tales 97 though. First time I saw that.

They aren't May and Ben Parker.

the resemblance is uncanny

but in the overall scope of giving a damn--- this sort of does not matter much at all

Potentially she IS peter parker and got turned into a boy by aliens.  Then the spider bite.

Too Silver Age DC.

Despite some superficial similarities, these characters, May and Ben Barker, were never intended to be prototypes for Spider-Man’s relatives.

It would be worth buying for the cover alone.

And yes, canonical, a big word, is a good word as well.

That one was unfortunately destroyed completely in modern comics’ Secret Wars, Marvel‘s Crisis on Infinite Earths, and has been rendered non-canonical.

I like the chap at the bottom with the hair Ken. The look on his face has a 'what the focaccia is going on here' look to it.

It’s a 60s comic, and judging from his hair he’s perhaps hoping it’s just a very bad hallucination.
