However, with Tony gone and Peter dealing with the fallout from Far From Home, it might just be the perfect time to introduce the actual Ben Parker by referencing one of the most touching moments in comic book history.Īt least, that’s what one fan thinks (and I agree). In bypassing the origin story, the MCU skipped over Uncle Ben entirely, subbing in Tony Stark as a father figure for Tom Holland’s Peter Parker. If you haven’t guessed it by now, we’re talking about Uncle Ben, Spidey’s perennially dead father figure. Spoilers ahead for Spider-Man: Far From Home. But as the MCU steps into Phase 4, it may be time to expand, at least a little bit, on Peter Parker’s iconic backstory by giving one overlooked Spider-Man standby character his due. That’s why the Marvel Cinematic Universe glossed right over it and Into the Spider-Verse twisted it into hilarious meta-commentary. Everyone and their aunt knows Spider-Man’s backstory.
