Yet another example of Stan Lee recycling a name (possibly without conscious intent) in the Silver Age (i.e., the Avengers' "Masters of Evil") from the title of a YOUNG ALLIES story--though technically the villain's name in the story is "The Mad Mechanic."
And while I was at it, I checked out BLONDE PHANTOM #12 online as well, and found a Miss America story with another familiar name. As it happens, the villain with the spider-fetish-- using sticky nets and giant man-eating spiders-- spends the whole story masquerading as an honest scientist, Professor Morte, and since the impostor's real name is not disclosed, the only thing to call him is-- Marvel's first "Spiderman!"
