―General Slocum's last words

General Slocum is one of the minor characters featured in 2002's Spider-Man and yet a pivotal character in the Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy. He was portrayed by the late Stanley Anderson. The character was created for the film and thus never appeared in any comic.

History

General Slocum was born sometime in the 1930's or 40's and during the early 1980's he joined Oscorp Technologies, but he didn't support Osborn's business because his predecessors told him many of the scams he did to keep his business going.

Slocum was seen watching the air glider and he came to visit Oscorp Technologies and to esquire about the formula firsthand from Norman Osborn. After Dr. Stromm, Norman's colleague, warned them about the unstable testing, Slocum tells Norman if the performance enhancer had not had successful human trials, he'll pull all of the funding and give it to their competitor Quest Aerospace. While visiting a test at Quest of their cyborg body prototype, Slocum was killed after the Green Goblin attacked the trial run. Before he had died, he had expressed his disdain for Osborn and his preference for Quest Aerospace.
