We see his initials on some luggage Peter uses in "Far From Home." The sequel trilogy acted like he never existed. May strangely never mentioned him, but we know he existed in the MCU. There were some real stakes in his relationship with May and the struggles she faced after losing the love of her life.įor whatever reason, the new trilogy never explored Ben Parker and the effect his loss had on Peter and his aunt.

The films even showed a small rift between the two when Peter revealed to Aunt May that he believed he was the reason Uncle Ben was killed because he lied about being at the library when Ben was shot. Instead, she tried giving him money for his birthday at one point. She also had an entire subplot about how she tried to hide the fact that she was struggling to pay her bills and was too proud to ask for help from Peter. She was a focus of attacks by both the Green Goblin and Doc Ock. Not only was she Peter's conscience, but she was more than a background character.
