[hide]*1 Big Man Of Crime ==Big Man Of Crime Edit== Little is known about Tombstone's past. It is known that after Frederick Foswell exposed Silvio Manfredi's(AKA Silvermane) criminal activities and the FBI took him to jail twelve years ago. Tombstone somehow took control of Silvermane's empire, thus becoming The Big Man- the biggest crime lord in New York City and he has run the criminal actions in the city since that time. At some point Hammerhead began working for Tombstone. ==Spider-Man's Interference Edit== Tombstone's operations were being ruined by Spider-Man, who was taking down many of Tombstone's criminal underlings. When Tombstone heard rumors of the webslinger, he had Hammerhead investigate the matter proper to make sure his criminal associates were sincere. After he saw a live video of Spider-Man defeating Flint Marko and Alex O'Hirn, he summoned The Enforcers and ordered them to squash Spider-Man. The Enforcers however, failed to complete their task, and Fancy Dan and Ox were arrested. ("Survival of the Fittest") ==Making Super-villains Edit== Norman Osborn tipped off The Big Man about a TRICORP shipment that was carrying a pair of vibro-shock units, and a protective suit. Tombstone and Hammerhead sent Montana and his men to steal that shipment, Hammerhead ordered Montana to don the suit and become Shocker. But Shocker once again failed to defeat Spider-Man, so Tombstone working through Hammerhead made a deal with Norman Osborn. Tombstone noticed that when Spider-man engages in battles with the likes of Vulture, Lizard and Shocker, he is too busy to interfere with The Big Man's empire. So he asked Norman Osborn to create Super-villains to distract Spider-Man. Norman agreed since he would gain huge profit by making Super-villains for Big Man. ("Market Forces") ==BackgroundEdit== Tombstone was voiced by Keith David and Kevin Michael Richardson.

Tombstone was chosen over the Kingpin for this role in the Spectacular Spider-Man since despite having originated as a Spider-Man and that the show's producer Greg Weisman wished to use him, Marvel currently considers the Kingpin as a Daredevil villain which is why the Kingpin was never used for the show since only Spider-Man characters were allowed to be used.
