Early Years
Benjamin Franklin "Ben" Parker (born in the late 1950s, died in the late 1990s), was the older brother to Richard Parker and sister-in-law to his wife Mary Fitzpatrick. Despite being raised in difficult conditions, he was as confident as he was wise, hard-working and decent. In his early adulthood, Ben was trained in the United States Army for a quite while, before deciding to retire after five successful missions with his comrades. At some point in time after returning from the army, Ben fell in love with a beautiful brunette young woman named May Reilly, whom coincidentally have gone to the same high school as his before they finally met, and the two would eventually get married later on as a seed of their unconditional love for each other after a few years of their long-lasting relationship.

Raising Peter
Despite their consistent, relieving life as a couple, both Ben and May were devastated when both Richard and Mary had mysteriously died in a plane crash, not long ago, only a week after leaving their son Peter with him. For the next few years, Ben and his wife May cared for and raised Peter like a son. In his early life while raising Peter and living with May, Ben was still living his part-time job as a young sales talker at a Coney Island fair at New York, raising an enough amount of money to keep him, May, and Peter sustainable in living before eventually deciding to retire in the Parker household. As time passes, Uncle Ben would willingly take over as Peter's father figure since Richard's death, and as Peter grew older, Ben recognized and has proud of his nephew's intelligence and did his best to encourage him in academics. When Peter was often bullied due to his intelligence and awkward personality, Ben did his best to cheer up Peter and progressively teach him how to deal with any bully without causing much harm at them in return.

Heroic Death
When Peter got in a fight with Flash at school, Flash's parents almost sued the Parkers, but was intervened by Ben's convincing reasoning. With it, Peter secretly used his powers to get money by participating in wrestling matches, unbeknownst to Ben and May. One day, after Peter had an argument with his aunt and uncle, he went to his friend's house where he was having a party. Ben confronted him there and lectured him about great power and responsibility, but Peter didn't listen to him that very night. After Ben was suddenly shot by a criminal his nephew Peter had failed to stop earlier, Peter and his aunt greatly mourned his passing. Ben's tragic death would soon become the primary driving force behind Peter's becoming a vigilante and eventually the popular superhero that was the amazing, spectacular, and ultimate Spider-Man.
