Oh, neat. He's one of the obscure villains who played a role in my Spider-Man novel Drowned in Thunder.
In fact, it seems like this movie is trying to go back to the beginning with Spidey, and not just with the high school setting. The Vulture and the Tinkerer were the second and third villains that Spidey ever faced, both debuting in Amazing Spider-Man #2 in May 1963. I wouldn't be surprised if the rumored third villain in the movie were the Chameleon, Spidey's very first foe (other than Uncle Ben's killer, J. Jonah Jameson, and the Fantastic Four, sort of).
