HistoryEdit

Be good to her-- son! Be good-- to her. She loves you-- so very --much.

-- George Stacy's last words ^src 

Captain George Stacy was once a prominent member of the New York Police Department, who had retired and lived in Queens with his teenage daughter Gwendolyn Stacy. Even in retirement, Captain Stacy kept in contact with the department as he had taken an interest in the activities of the crime fighter Spider-Man. Captain Stacy - unlike the rest of the police department and the city - was a strong supporter of Spider-Man.

Colonel John Jameson contacted Stacy and asked him to come out of retirement to help him track down and find the Stolen device called the Nullifier. This weapon could be used to shutdown any electrical device in the area. Doctor Octopus had used Spider-Man to steal for him whilst in an amnesiac state. Captain Stacy eventually retrieved the Nullifier and rescued Peter Parker who at first he had believed to have been kidnapped by Doc Ock. When talking to Peter he admitted to him he had been studying Spider-Man and was very impressed with his photographs of the wall-crawler. He and Peter then became close friends and Stacy encourages him to continue his relationship with Gwen.

After a few years he started to suspect that Peter Parker and Spider-Man were one and the same person. His suspicions were confirmed when Peter in a feverish state admitted he was Spider-Man. When Peter found out what he said he tried to trick his friend by having the Prowler pretend to be Spider-Man. Captain Stacy was the only one not fooled by the ruse but respected Peter's choice to hide his identity.

Captain Stacy witnessed another battle between Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus. A crowd had gathered when large bits of concrete started to fall. Captain Stacy was then killed when he was crushed by falling debris while saving a small child . Before he died he revealed to Spider-Man that he knew he was secretly Peter Parker. Captain Stacy's final words were "Be good to her, son! Be good to her. She loves you so very much".
