!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Colonel Eugene "Flash" Thompson
!!! '''Notable Aliases:''' "Agent" Venom IV, "Agent" Anti-Venom II
!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''[[ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15 Amazing Fantasy]]'' [[ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15 #15]] (August, 1962)

"Flash" was a jock at Peter's high school, and thus "Puny Parker" often was the target of his abuse. However, once he became Spider-Man, Peter began standing up to Flash. Ironically, Flash was always a big fan of the wall-crawler. After college, the two went their separate ways, with Flash joining the army. His time there mellowed him out considerably. So much so, that by the time he saw Peter again, the two realized they had more in common than they thought, and soon even became friends. They even ended up teaching at their old high school together. Peter taught science, while Flash taught gym.

Enlisting in the army during the Iraq War, Flash is grievously wounded in action, losing his legs while saving his comrades. Lauded as a hero for his sacrifice, he is given an offer by the military: he can "rent" the Venom symbiote, which was subdued by drugs, for 48-hour periods (never long enough for the symbiote to establish control) for use in important missions, regaining the use of his legs in the process. Thompson agrees and subsequently becomes the new Venom, marking the character's transition to fully-fledged hero.

!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Elizabeth "Liz" Allan
!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''[[ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15 Amazing Fantasy]]'' [[ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15 #15]] (August, 1962)

Liz Allan was a high school student that attended Midtown High School together, and a minor love interest of Peter Parker and Flash Thompson. Initially she is Flash's girlfriend and considers Peter something of a loser. However, after she hears an ailing Peter had donned a Spider-Man costume in order to save Betty Brant from Doctor Octopus, she develops a crush on him. By this time, however, Peter's interest has waned considerably, as he notes that Liz never showed any real interest in him until he began dating Betty Brant, and assumes that Liz's feelings are little more than a schoolgirl crush. Betty and Liz clash several times over Peter. At the graduation ceremony, Liz admits her feelings to Peter, and says she has come to accept the fact that they are unrequited. In the same issue, Spider-Man battles the Molten Man, who in later issues is revealed to be Liz's stepbrother Mark Raxton.

When Liz returns, she dates then marries Harry Osborn, whom she meets at Betty Brant's wedding to Ned Leeds, becoming Liz Allan Osborn. The couple have a son, Normie Osborn. Their family history turns tragic, however, after Harry Osborn has a mental breakdown. In the guise of the Green Goblin, Harry kidnaps Liz, Normie and Mark, and terrorizes them within an old family mansion. Liz is deeply traumatized by this experience and falls into a state of denial about her husband's problems. Harry's madness leads to his death shortly after. Struggling to put Harry behind her, Liz breaks ties with Peter and Mary Jane.

After the events of the "One More Day" [[spoiler: Harry is still alive, but he and Liz are no longer married]].

[[folder:Sally Avril]]
!!Sally Avril
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bluebirdsally_8369.jpg]]

!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Sally Avril
!!! '''Notable Aliases:''' Bluebird
!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''[[ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15 Amazing Fantasy]]'' [[ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15 #15]] (August, 1962)

A classmate of Peter Parker's who wished to be famous like Spider-Man. She developed the costumed identity of Bluebird and employed gadgets to stop crime. Bluebird even helped Spider Man defeat Electro and the Eel when they demanded ten million dollars or would cripple the city's electrical supply. Avril died in car accident while speeding to battle scene involving Spider-Man in order to photograph him.
----
* AscendedExtra: The bit-parter shown turning down Peter Parker's request for a date (in favor of the "dream boat" Flash Thompson) in ''Amazing Fantasy'' #15, Kurt Busiek made her a much more prominent and important character in ''ComicBook/UntoldTalesOfSpiderMan''.
* AssholeVictim: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. In the ''Amazing Fantasy'' follow-up issues #16-18 and ''ComicBook/UntoldTalesOfSpiderMan'', Sally Avril is shown to have been a somewhat callous and self-absorbed young gal who tended join in with the other students in their bullying and mockery of Peter Parker, and a budding young glory hound whose reckless seeking for fame and fortune ultimately got her killed. When she saw her friend Liz Allan offering Peter Parker condolences for Uncle Ben's untimely demise, she broke off the conversation by calling Liz away (to [[INeedToGoIronMyDog "that, ah, Social Studies thing"]]) while offering no condolences of her own. While ''Amazing Fantasy'' #17 reveals that she did have some history of being childhood friends with Peter Parker along with the rest of "the gang" before they drifted away from him and gravitated to Flash Thompson in high school, she doesn't ever seem to have been one of the closer ones. She was also more than willing to try to use both Peter Parker and Jason Ionello (to whom she seems to have been somewhat closer) as her stepping stones, at one point trying to blackmail Parker into helping her launch her career as Bluebird, and later pressuring Ionello to drive her around the city to newsworthy events to help launch her career as a news photographer even though he only had his learner's permit. Despite all her misbehavior, her death was every bit as devastating to Peter Parker as to the rest of her classmates, and Johnny Storm ([[TheRival of all people]]) ultimately had to talk Spider-Man out of feeling guilty for his incidental involvement in it.
* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: AscendedExtra Sally Avril is basically the kind of KidHero Peter Parker might have turned out to be if Uncle Ben's death hadn't shaken him out of his own callous disdain for his classmates and self-absorbtion. Rather than true heroism, Sally's motivations for taking up first being the costumed vigilante Bluebird and then a career in news photography like Peter are [[ThrillSeeker fun]] and [[ItsAllAboutMe fame and fortune]]. Her weapons were all but useless in a fight (something Electro pointed out when he mocked her for trying to knock him out with one of her ether-filled eggs) and are broadly implied to have been something Jason Ionello developed for her, since he was the one with the scientific mind. When Spider-Man finally got tired of bailing her out from the sticky situations into which her own reckless posing as a superhero had gotten her, he had to stand back and let one of the {{Mooks}} she was fighting alongside him punch her in the stomach to convince her she was not cut out for superheroic work. Then [[TooDumbToLive her own recklessness and vanity got her killed anyway]] when she talked Jason Ionello into being her driver even though he only had a learner's permit, and pressured him into running a red light.
* DroppedABridgeOnHer: Given some play, in that in the issue where she died (''ComicBook/UntoldTalesOfSpiderMan'' #13), the story momentarily made it seem that Sally's antics as the KidHero wannabe Bluebird were going to get her killed when Spider-Man stepped back and let one of the Black Knight's goons punch her in the stomach to clarify to her that [[TooDumbToLive she was foolishly risking her life and limbs fighting bad guys when she didn't have any real powers]], [[BaitAndSwitch but this was not what ultimately killed her]]. Instead, she got into a horrendous car wreck the next evening when [[DrivesLikeCrazy she egged Jason Ionello into running a red light]], which got their vehicle T-boned by a city bus, killing her almost instantly. While this ''is'' a rather mundane way for a character in a superhero comic to die, her [[DevelopingDoomedCharacters development]] as an AscendedExtra in the previous issues, and the devastating impact her death had on her classmates in later issues (particularly Jason Ionello, who survived the accident, and then had to face down [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer his disapproving classmates]] and his SurvivorGuilt once he'd recovered enough to return to high school) makes her death seem a lot more tragic (especially since this is one of the all-too-common ways teenagers in high school have been known to die in RealLife), and Peter Parker's own grief and guilt (even though she wasn't a very good friend to him and—as the Human Torch points out—he wasn't to blame) quite understandable.
* TheLoad: Since she desired some of the "glory" she thought [[HeroWithBadPublicity Spider-Man]]'s heroics were bringing him for herself, she created a blue-and-white costume, called herself Bluebird, and tried to team up with Spider-Man with an arsenal of (mostly useless) egg-themed gadgets. Unfortunately, her overinflated ego and reckless behavior made her such a nuisance and a hindrance to him that Spider-Man finally let one of the Black Knight's thugs take a free shot at her to convince her to give up on her ambition to be a superheroine.
* MyGreatestFailure: Spidey blamed himself for her death, believing that she would still be alive if he had let Bluebird be his sidekick as she wanted and mentored her.
--> '''Spider-Man:''' She'll never laugh again. She'll never toss her head the way she did, instantly dismissing whatever she didn't want to think about in favor of something new. She'll never smile, never capture everyone's attention with a few words, never light up a room with her determination and humor. She could be obnoxious, even pushy, but she was vital and alive and fun to be around and now she's gone...
* NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead: To say that Sally Avril had her faults is to make a mild understatement: she very willingly went along with Flash Thompson and even Jason Ionello in their taunting and tormenting of Peter Parker (particularly an incident in which Jason stole Peter's clothes while he was showering; [[EveryoneHasStandards even Flash didn't approve of that prank]], but ''she'' seemed to find it slightly amusing), showed a callous lack of concern for him as he was grieving over his uncle's death, and was more than willing to go along with Jason's attempts to find out Spider-Man's secret identity. She even tried to blackmail Peter into publicizing her exploits as Bluebird when she found out about his taking photographs for the Daily Bugle. Even so, when her own recklessness got her killed in a car wreck, Peter was still thoroughly devastated, as detailed in MyGreatestFailure above. In the end, he only began to be consoled when the Human Torch (who didn't even like Spider-Man) pointed out he had no good reason to blame himself for her death.
--> '''Human Torch:''' You stopped her from doing something ''dangerous''. That's all. She chose to do ''something else'' dangerous, but that's not your fault.
* NoSympathy: While she doesn't seem to have known Peter Parker all that well even back in junior high when she and Peter Parker's other classmates were also his friends, her casual disregard for his feelings while he was still mourning Uncle Ben's death (demonstrated when she pushed Liz Allan to cut her condolences to Peter Parker short so the group could move on to its next social gathering—to which he, of course, was not invited) is still rather disturbing to behold.
* TooDumbToLive: While he's [[NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead neither too blunt nor at all flippant on the subject]], Johnny Storm demonstrates [[HiddenDepths some remarkable insight]] into the situation when consoling Spider-Man over Sally's death, pointing out that her impulsiveness and overconfidence would likely have gotten her killed regardless of anything he did or didn't do: had Spider-Man offered to train her, she might just as easily have died foolishly trying to take on the Black Knight (who—though his powers were no match for Spidey's—would easily have been able to CurbStomp ''her'').

Rather than true heroism, Sally's motivations for taking up first being the costumed vigilante Bluebird and then a career in news photography like Peter are [[ThrillSeeker fun]] and [[ItsAllAboutMe fame and fortune]].

* AssholeVictim: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. In the ''Amazing Fantasy'' follow-up issues #16-18 and ''ComicBook/UntoldTalesOfSpiderMan'', Sally Avril is shown to have been a somewhat callous and self-absorbed young gal who tended join in with the other students in their bullying and mockery of Peter Parker, and a budding young glory hound whose reckless seeking for fame and fortune ultimately got her killed. When she saw her friend Liz Allen offering Peter Parker condolences for Uncle Ben's untimely demise, she broke off the conversation by calling Liz away (to [[INeedToGoIronMyDog "that, ah, Social Studies thing"]]) while offering no condolences of her own.

* AscendedExtra: A bit-parter in ''Amazing Fantasy'' #15, she was made a major character in ''ComicBook/UntoldTalesOfSpiderMan''.
* AssholeVictim: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With]]. Sally Avril was a cruel and uncaring jerkass who mocked and bullied Peter Parker and was desperate to be famous. When Peter's uncle dies, she does not care, and when she sees her friend Liz Allan talking to him (she is offering him her condolences), she coaxes Liz away rather than offer her own sympathy to Peter. Eventually, to become famous, Sally tried to become a superhero and called herself Bluebird, and even tried to blackmail Peter into taking pictures of her superhero identity by threatening to reveal his Spidey photography to the rest of her friends, which forced Peter to announce it himself at school. Sally failed as a superhero because she was not much of a fighter, and her gadgets didn't work most of the time. What causes Sally to quit being Bluebird is that Spider-Man lets thugs beat her as a warning and tells her she can't be a superhero. So Sally decides to try and get famous by becoming a photographer like Peter, only to end up dying in a car crash when she forces Jason Ionello to drive faster than he should to take pictures of a Spider-Man fight. Peter starts blaming himself for Sally's death and acts like she was a good friend whom he failed. It takes the Human Torch to get Peter out of his funk, calling out Sally as a careless thrill seeker who would've probably gotten herself killed much sooner if Spider-Man hadn't held her back. All in all, while Sally's death is sad, she wasn't a nice person, and her own stupidity led to her death.
* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: AscendedExtra Sally Avril serves as one for the KidHero in almost the exact opposite direction from Peter. Rather than some injustice, Sally is motivated by [[ThrillSeeker fun]] and [[ItsAllAboutMe glory]]. She uses weapons developed by her friend Jason, but despite him being of above-average intelligence, they either have no combat function or are so poorly conceived and useless that it earns her the mockery of villains. Finally, despite being a skilled gymnast and a descent fighter, when Spider-Man decides she needs to learn her lesson and refuses to help her, she ends up on the receiving end of a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown from a street thug who any other Kid Hero would have absolutely no problem with. When Spidey finally forces her to call it quits, she decides to get her adrenaline fix as a photographer, [[TemptingFate convinces the unlicensed driver Jason to run a red light]], [[TooDumbToLive and is killed in a car crash because she was hanging out a window]].
* DroppedABridgeOnHer: Sally finally give up with the heroic act, but was still determined to act out her secondary goal of taking pictures of Spidey, which led to tragedy when she, while trying to get photos of Spider-Man's aerial battle with Black Knight, forced Jason to drive recklessly, causing a fatal crash.
* TheLoad: Heady with the idea of being a super-hero, she created a blue-and-white costume, called herself Blue Bird, and tried to help Spider-Man with an arsenal of egg-themed gadgets. Unfortunately, her inexperience and malfunctioning eggs caused her to be such a burden that Spider-Man even allowed one villain to hurt her quite badly in an attempt to dissuade her.
* MyGreatestFailure: Spidey blamed himself, believing that she would still be alive if he had let her continue as Bluebird until talked out of it by the Human Torch.

* NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead: Sally Avril was an awful person to Peter Parker in her life. She mocked and bullied him, didn't care about his uncle's death, and when she saw Liz talking to him (she was offering him her condolences) she coaxed Liz away rather than offer her own sympathy to Peter. When Jason Ionello attempted to prank Peter by stealing all the clothes in his gym bag while he's showering, she was the only one who approved of the prank when all of her friends thought Jason crossed the line from funny to overly cruel. She even tried to blackmail Peter when she became the superhero Bluebird to take her pictures. But when she died in a car accident trying to take pictures of a Spider-Man fight, Peter acted like he lost a good friend and wonderful person in his life. He talked about how she was vital and alive and fun to be around. While it's understandable why her friends miss her because they were also unpleasant people, Peter had no reason to mourn her. However, Peter blames himself for her death and it was implied that his guilt was causing him to project Sally as a better person than she was. It was only while talking with Johnny Storm, who pointed out that her death was not his fault and given her behavior she was likely to get herself killed sooner or later no matter what Spider-Man did or didn't do, did he let go of his guilt.
* NoSympathy: She had no sympathy for Peter when his Uncle Ben died, in fact when she saw Liz talking to Peter (she was offering him her condolences) she coaxed Liz away rather than offer her own sympathy to Peter.
* TooDumbToLive: Lampshaded. After her death, Spidey ''somehow'' finds a way to blame himself, and is mourning at her grave when the Human Torch shows up. Upon hearing the story, Johnny shows a surprising amount of insight and knowledge of human nature by cutting through Spidey's guilt bullshit and putting all of the blame on Sally, pointing out that her behavior proved she was an adrenaline junkie who was going to get herself killed sooner or later no matter what Spider-Man did or didn't do.
