The Forest Hills Bank is a fictional location featured in comic books published by Marvel Comics. It is associated with the Spider-Man line of titles and first appeared in Amazing Spider-Man #9 in February, 1964 in a story called "The Man Called Electro!"
J. Jonah Jameson maintained a large account at the Forest Hills Bank and was considered one of their largest depositors. As such, Jameson was very demanding and treated the bank staff as if they were his personal underlings.
In one of his first forays into crime, Maxwell Dillon, aka Electro, used his electrokinesis powers to break into the bank and disable its alarm systems. After antagonizing a bank manager and J. Jonah Jameson, Electro broke into the vault and made off with the loot.
