This camera wasn't always evil. When an inventor (to his day unnamed) put the finishing touches on the camera, it was the latest in photo technology. But before he could unveil his invention, his lab partner, Dr. Fritz Fredericks (a.k.a. Spidey), stole the camera to take credit for the invention-and to enjoy the fame and riches that would come his way. The inventor stopped Dr. Fredericks' plan by cursing the camera for all eternity.
