Features of Spider-Man media
The comic book stories published by Marvel Comics since the 1940s have featured several noteworthy concepts besides its fictional characters, such as unique places and artifacts. Since the introduction of Peter Parker as a character in 1962, with the superhero alter-ego, Spider-Man, a number of these locations have been prominently featured in connection with storylines specific to this character. These have then been carried over to depictions of Spider-Man in film, video games, and other media. There follows a list of those features.
Residences
[edit]- Aunt May's house: Located at 20 Ingram Street, Forest Hills, Queens,[1] nearly every depiction of Spider-Man begins with Parker living with his Aunt May and Uncle Ben (or just his Aunt May, where Uncle Ben is already shown as being deceased). The house is sometimes depicted as being next door to the home of Mary Jane Watson. Storylines have occurred in various comic book runs and other media where Aunt May's home is attacked. In the 2018 American computer-animated film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, a shed in the backyard leads to a secret underground lair where Parker (deceased in that universe) had kept a variety of costumes and technology. In the 1981 TV cartoon, Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, the house serves as the Spider-Friends' headquarters, though Aunt May remains unaware of their activities.
Companies
[edit]- Daily Bugle: A newspaper headquartered in a building where Parker works as a photographer for J. Jonah Jameson.
- Oscorp: A research company headquartered in a skyscraper owned by Norman Osborn, which later became the headquarters for Alchemax.
- Parker Industries: A company that was founded and owned by Parker.

Later, Parker goes to the school to mourn the death of his aunt at the hands of the Green Goblin, and is visited by Leeds and Jones, who introduce him to alternate variants of himself, who had arrived through the fractured multiverse. He and his variants work in the school’s laboratory to concoct cures for the other universe-displaced before leaving, while Leeds and Jones remain with the mystical Macchina de Kadavus. Leeds uses a Sling Ring to open an inter-dimensional portal, which accidentally allows the universe-displaced Lizard to come through and attack them in the school.

Institutions
[edit]Ravencroft
[edit]Ravencroft Institute for the Criminally Insane was a maximum-security asylum for the mentally ill. Many insane murderers and supervillains were kept at Ravencroft.
The institute was first mentioned in Web of Spider-Man #112, written by Terry Kavanagh.
The institute is officially opened in Web of Spider-Man Annual #10 (1994). The institute is featured in a number of Spider-Man storylines. Dr. Ashley Kafka was the founder and first director of Ravencroft. John Jameson was head of security. Both were fired in The Spectacular Spider-Man #246 and Dr. Leonard Samson became Ravencroft's new director. In Leonard Samson's next appearance, he owned a private practice instead of running the institute.
The institute reappeared in Vengeance of the Moon Knight. In this incarnation, it housed mostly non-superpowered psychopaths and had an imposing metal front gate with a Gothic facade similar to DC's Arkham Asylum.
Known patients at Ravencroft include Carnage, Chameleon, D.K., Doctor Octopus, Electro, Green Goblin, Gale, Jackal, Massacre, Mayhem, Mysterio, Prism, Pyromania, Ramon Grant, Shriek, Venom, Vulture, and Webber.
The storyline after Absolute Carnage, Ruins of Ravencroft eventually explains its true origin. It turns out that the institute is more than just for the criminally insane. It used to act as a staging area for superhuman experiments, particularly supernaturals such as for Dracula in centuries ago prior to being raided by Captain America-Steve Rogers and Bucky (now a Winter Soldier in the present) during World War II in the 20th century.
Ravencroft in other media
[edit]- Ravencroft appears in Spider-Man, run by Dr. Kafka and fills a similar role in the comics with Eddie Brock reuniting with Venom and Kasady getting the Carnage symbiote, here by Baron Mordo and Dormammu.
- Ravencroft appears in The Spectacular Spider-Man, with Electro, Doctor Octopus, Cletus Kasady, John Jameson, and Venom as known patients.
- Ravencroft appears in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, with Dr. Ashley Kafka as a leading scientist and Electro as a patient until Harry Osborn breaks him out.[39]
- Ravencroft also appears in the tie-in video game of the same name, in which Oscorp uses it to conduct secret experiments.
- Ravencroft appears in Venom: Let There Be Carnage, with Shriek as a prominent inmate. It was torn down by Carnage/Kasady.
