"You have a gift. You have power. And with great power, there must also come great responsibility."
―May Parker to Peter Parker[src]

Maybelle "May" Parker (née Reilly) was the aunt of Peter Parker and the widow of the late Ben Parker. She took on the responsibility of raising Peter alone, as she stood by him during Tony Stark's mentorship, while unaware of how he became an intern at Stark Industries. May eventually learned that her nephew was actually Spider-Man, but came to accept his secret identity. However, she was soon killed during the Snap, which also killed Peter, only for them both to be resurrected due to the actions of the Avengers five years later. In the wake of the Blip, May took on an active role in helping her community by working with the Salvation Army and F.E.A.S.T. along with supporting Peter as Spider-Man, while also starting a romantic relationship with Happy Hogan.

In 2024, May met Norman Osborn, a mentally-ill scientist who had come from another universe and suffered from a personality disorder. She convinced her nephew to cure the Multiversal villains of their ailments, but the duo was attacked by Osborn's alter, Green Goblin. In an attempt to save Peter's life and cure Osborn, May was mortally wounded by the Goblin Glider and succumbed to her injuries.

May meeting Tony Stark in her apartment

In 2016, May was greeted by Tony Stark at the Parker Residence, where he told her that he had come in person to offer Peter a scholarship. The two seemingly came into a discussion for some time, with Stark complimenting May on her walnut date loaves. When Peter got home from school later, May greeted her nephew and happily revealed Stark's presence. Stark revealed that Peter's application for a grant from the September Foundation he signed up for in the past had been approved, and Parker then asked why Peter did not tell her about this. Peter, knowing he did not apply for such a grant and did not receive one, played along by claiming he wanted to surprise his aunt. May allowed him and Stark to discuss the details in private.[1]

Caring for Peter Parker[]

Aunt May

"Well, hope you got a few good licks in."
"Yeah, I got quite a few in actually. His friend was huge, like huge! That's way better, thank you."
"Okay, tough guy."
―May Parker to Peter Parker[src]

When Peter returned from his "internship retreat" with Tony Stark, May treated her nephew's injuries and came into his room to give him an ice bag for his black eye. When she asked how he got his bruises, Peter claimed that he was in a fight with a Brooklyn guy named "Steve" and "his huge friend". May then jokingly wondered how Peter had done during the fight and hoped that her nephew stood up for himself, being assured he got a few punches in. She then exited Peter's room to leave him alone so he could recover.[1]

Thai Food Meal[]

Aunt May (Ruined Dinner)

Parker suggests eating dinner at a restaurant

"What's the matter? I thought you loved Larb. Is it too Larby? Not Larby enough. How many times do I have to say 'Larb' before you talk to me? You know I Larb you."
―May Parker to Peter Parker[src]

Two months later, May let Peter Parker's friend, Ned Leeds, into his room so they could build a Lego Death Star together. A few minutes later while cooking dinner, May heard a crash from her nephew's room and asked what it was, to which Peter replied it was nothing. She came by the room to find Peter in his underwear and Leeds' Legos scattered over the floor. May informed her nephew that they would be eating out tonight at a Thai restaurant as she had burned the turkey meatloaf. May invited Leeds to join them but Peter informed her that he couldn't go. She then left and recommended that Peter wear more clothes.

May and Peter Parker eat dinner together

Together, May and Peter went to Prachya Thai. At the restaurant, May noticed her nephew acting off and wondered what was on his mind, questioning if it was the Larb they were eating. Peter claimed that he was tired out from his internship at Stark Industries, as May proclaimed to not be a fan of Tony Stark. Parker tried to offer her nephew advice in trusting his instincts with his work when she saw that Peter was distracted. She turned around to see a NY1 report on the television, showing footage of the Robbery of the Queens Community Bank.

SMH This is my Life 7

May asks Peter Parker to be careful

May ordered Peter to run for safety if he ever saw something like that happening, worried over such an incident occurring so close to where they lived. Peter then asked for a new backpack, but May exasperatedly noted that this was the fifth he had lost. A waiter then gave her a sticky rice pudding for dessert, which surprised May as she did not order it. The waiter insisted that it was on the house and once he left, Peter pointed out that he had given it to May out of sheer physical attraction.[6]

High School Party[]

"Oh, Peter. I know. I know it's really hard trying to fit in with all the changes your body is going through. It's flowering now."
―May Parker to Peter Parker[src]

A night later, May drove Peter and Ned Leeds to the Toomes Residence as one of their classmates, Liz Toomes, was throwing a party at her house. May noted her own love for house parties while waiting outside. May complimented Leeds' hat, saying that she found it well-fitted for him. Leeds responded with thanks and claimed that the hat gave him confidence.

Aunt May - HaveFunOkay

Parker tells her nephew to have fun

Peter was nervous as he thought that it was a mistake coming to the party. May then teased her nephew by bringing up him going through puberty and feeling apprehensive about his own bodily changes until Peter had finally relented. Before the two got out of the car, May encouraged Peter to have fun at the party and Leeds waved bye as she drove away. A few days later, May picked Peter up after his Academic Decathlon competition in Washington, D.C.. Following the Rescue at the Washington Monument, May was worried for her nephew's safety and hugged him in gratitude upon seeing he was alright.[6]

Confronting Peter Parker[]

SMH Fan's Guide 13

May confronting Peter Parker

"Cut the bullshit. I know you left detention. I know you left the hotel room in Washington. I know you sneak out of this house every night. That's not fine. Peter, you have to tell me what's going on! Just lay it out. It's just me and you."
―May Parker to Peter Parker[src]

Having received a call from Midtown School of Science and Technology about her nephew attempting to skip school and leaving detention early, May repeatedly tried calling Peter, to no avail. After hearing about an attack on a New York ferry, May called Peter's friends, Ned Leeds' mother, and even five police stations regarding his whereabouts. When Peter finally came home, she was anxious over where he'd been all day and sternly confronted the young Parker over his uncharacteristic disregard for his education. In a frustration, May then noted how she was aware that Peter also left the hotel room in Washington, D.C. and snuck out of their home each night but did not know why.

Peter and Aunt May

Parker comforts Peter Parker

Desperate for answers, May demanded from her nephew to know what had been going on with him the last few months without her knowledge. A crestfallen Peter admitted that he had lost the Stark Industries internship, which May immediately believed due to the genuine tears and shaking in his voice. She simply embraced her nephew, while he then apologized for getting her so worried about him lately. With a comforting understanding, May then finished their conversation by noting that she used to rebel as well in her youth. She recommended that Peter take a shower, claiming that he smelled like garbage.[6]

Homecoming Dance[]

Several days later, Peter Parker ran into their home and told May that he needed her help in preparing for the Homecoming Dance, as he had gotten a date with Liz Toomes. May helped Peter out by giving him a suit to wear and a corsage for Toomes, as well as helping him learn how to tie a Windsor Knot.

SMH Fan's Guide 67

May teaches Peter Parker how to dance

May even taught Peter to dance, which he initially found quite awkward. Nonetheless, the unwavering support and care from his aunt allowed the young Parker to relax as he prepared himself for Homecoming. On the night of the dance, May drove her nephew to the Toomes Residence to meet with Toomes. Once they arrived, she gave Peter some final advice on his date etiquette before driving off.[6]

―May Parker[src]

In 2018, May was a victim of the Snap.[8] Five years later, as a result of the Blip, May was restored to life. When May reappeared in her apartment, she was shocked to discover that a new family was now living there.[9] About a week later, May attended Tony Stark's funeral along with her nephew at Stark's home.[10]

May made herself active as a member of the Salvation Army by helping other victims of the Blip find new homes after their return. In 2024, May organized a homeless support shelter at the Urban Sports & Cultural Center and had her nephew act as a celebrity guest for a fundraiser to bring in news coverage. May then shared her story of being brought back into existence before she introduced Spider-Man to the audience.

"I still don't know where it's going to go. Anywhere. On or off."
―May Parker and Happy Hogan[src]

Back at the apartment, May and Happy Hogan sat down with her nephew who questioned their relationship. While Hogan was sure of them being together, May attributed their time as a fun summertime fling, with mutual attraction but no real interest. Due to this, Hogan was taken aback and they both exchanged glances.[9]

Peter Parker, MJ & Aunt May

Parker meets Michelle Jones

They found Peter undressed standing with a girl in his room. Thinking that the two were about to have sex, May closed the door and told them to practice it safely, only to realize that the girl next to him was his girlfriend Michelle Jones, and promptly greeted her. As May went into the living room, Peter told her that it wasn't what she thought and then demanded that she and Hogan explain their own relationship.

However, Jones told Peter to look at the television which broadcasted NY1 news which revealed his identity as Spider-Man and was airing footage of their apartment complex. Peter used his Web-Shooters to close the blinds and May asked if it was live footage. Peter then opened one of the blinds to show her the news helicopters that were surrounding the complex. The news continued stating that the United States Department of Damage Control would be leading the investigation and that Stark Industries was under controversy due to their drones being used in the Battle of London.[2]

Damage Control Interrogation[]

Spider-Man NWH trailer 28

Parker and her nephew confronted by Damage Control

"You should definitely lawyer up. Child endangerment's a nasty wrap. A boy was entrusted to you, and as his legal guardian, essentially his mother, you not only allowed him to endanger himself, but you actually encouraged it. Who does that?"
P. Cleary to May Parker[src]

Days later, May and Peter were sitting in the living room and watching the television when they heard a knock on their door. May went to answer it and was met by Agent P. Cleary and his agents who told her that Peter was under arrest. She told him that she knew her rights, as well as the Fourth Amendment. Despite this, Cleary went inside and took pictures of various items. He then took Peter in and brought him to the New York City Police Precinct.

When it was May's turn to be interrogated in the interrogation room, she told Cleary that they could not be there unless he had actual evidence against them.

He continued stating that she would definitely need a lawyer.[2]

Meeting with Matt Murdock[]

Parker thanks Matt Murdock for his help

"Thank you, Matt."
―May Parker to Matt Murdock[src]

After finding Peter a lawyer, May, Peter, and Hogan met with Matt Murdock at the apartment. Murdock told them that he was able to remove all criminal charges off of Peter, much to May's delight. However, he told them that there was still the court of public opinion and things would still be hard for Peter. He then told Hogan that he would be under investigation due to his role in Stark Industries. A brick was then thrown in through a window from a Mysterio supporter and May and Hogan ducked. Murdock caught it with one hand, shocking them at his superhuman agility. Following this, Parker stated they needed to find a safer place to live.[2]

"I'm here in this place, in this city, and I don't know what's going on with me! I– I don't... Doesn't make sense..."
"He's lost. And I don't mean just in the cosmos. I mean in his mind."
Norman Osborn and May Parker[src]

That fall, Parker started helping out at F.E.A.S.T.. In November, she was informed by Peter about the universe-displaced people having entered their universe, much to her surprise that the Multiverse was real. When a homeless man named Norman Osborn came inside the shelter, Parker deduced that he was one of the universe-displaced people that Peter told her about. She brought Osborn to the kitchen as she gave him some clothes to hide the green armor that he was wearing, a box of donuts and coffee. After calling Peter to come to F.E.A.S.T., Parker sat with Osborn and talked with him while they waited for her nephew to arrive.

May and Peter

Parker speaks with her nephew

When Peter arrived, Parker introduce Osborn, who looked at her and the latter in confusion, to her nephew and explained to him that the latter wandered into the building. After hearing Osborn's problem, Parker told Peter that the latter was mentally ill in the mind. Hearing that the other universe displaced people also had their own mental and physical issues, Parker encouraged Peter to help them as they had the means to do so, rather than send them off to their universes. However, Parker was disappointed that Peter wanted to send them back as he believed that Doctor Strange knew best and they weren't his responsibility. Although, Parker accepted Peter's request to help clean his Upgraded Suit. She removed the paint, much to his gratitude. Afterwards, May drove Osborn and Peter to the New York Sanctum and dropped them off.[2]

Helping Multiversal Visitors[]

Spider-Man and May Parker[src]

Later, after Peter changed his mind about helping the universes displaced people, Parker returned to the Sanctum as she picked up her nephew, Norman Osborn, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Lizard and Electro with the F.E.A.S.T. truck. She brought them to Hogan's condominium and let them inside, but only Osborn, Doctor Octopus, Marko and Dillon decided to come up as Connors told her that he wanted to stay in the truck.

May Parker & Otto Octavius

Parker having a talk with Doctor Octopus

While her nephew prepared Doctor Octopus' cure, she asked him if he wanted freshwater or saltwater to drink, as she thought he was part octopus. When he acted confused, she changed the subject. Shortly, her nephew finished the Neural Inhibitor Chip and placed it in Doctor Octopus. Parker watched as he was healed and became proud of her nephew, as Doctor Octavius placed the nanites back on the Spider-Man Suit. Afterwards, Parker went upstairs.

Aunt May (No Way Home)

Parker realizes she is in danger

Her nephew then suddenly called out for her and she came downstairs, asking him what was wrong. She realized that he had sensed something with his Spider-Sense and witnessed the Green Goblin persona come out from Osborn, who told her and Peter about his duel personality at F.E.A.S.T. earlier, as she realized that he was the latter's alter ego. She then snuck to the back room to grab the cures from the Stark Industries Fabricator while Green Goblin was taunting her nephew. After grabbing the cures, Parker snuck back to the living room without being noticed then was told by her nephew to run. However, before leaving, Parker grabbed Dillion's cure.[2]

Escape from Spider-Man[]

May Parker running

"I saw how she trapped you, fighting her holy moral mission. We don't need you to save us. We don't need to be fixed!"
Green Goblin to Spider-Man[src]

May ran out to the elevators. However, when Electro used his powers to shut off the electricity within the building, the elevators stopped working and the lights flickered, before going out. Thus, May was forced to take the stairs. She ran as fast as she could. When she made it to the lobby, she saw the Green Goblin attacking her nephew. She ran to the Goblin and punctured him with the antidote and ran in front of the entrance.

Aunt May's Last Stand

Parker confronts Green Goblin

The Goblin laughed and grabbed her nephew, threatening him, as May glared back, ready to defend her nephew. Before she could, the Goblin Glider soared into the entrance and stabbed May in the side, causing her to fall. As she lay injured, the Goblin deployed two Pumpkin Bombs before leaving, causing mass destruction with the entrance hangar crumbling to the ground.[2]

Death[]

With great power there must also come great responsibility

Parker talks to her nephew for the last time

"I just... need to catch my breath."
"I'm right here. You're okay. It's just me and you."
―May Parker and Peter Parker[src]

After being hit, May collapsed onto the ground. Peter Parker found her and hugged her. May struggled to stand up and walk away, eventually falling onto the ground. As Peter knelt down to comfort her, she told him "You have a gift... And with great power there must also come great responsibility". She then told Peter that she needed to catch her breath. Peter noticed that he had her blood on his hand and immediately realized she was in fatal condition.

He called out to the United States Department of Damage Control agents outside to get an ambulance but it was too late and he tearfully broke down when Parker passed, her body shedding one last tear as he was forced to flee when DODC agents fired on him.[2]

Legacy[]

May Parker's Grave

May Parker's grave

"When you help someone, you help everyone."
―May Parker's epitaph[src]

In December 2024, one month after Parker's demise, Peter Parker, now with his secret identity completely restored, visited her grave to pay tribute. While there, he was joined by Happy Hogan, another friend of May. Peter simply introduced himself as someone who similarly knew May through Spider-Man. Hogan recounted to Peter the events that led him to losing another friend of his sometime prior, and how May's death carried a similar significance to him. He pondered whether what a person like May stood for would be preserved now that she had passed away. Peter reassured Hogan that everyone who was helped by her would continue her work.

Peter moved into an apartment and loaned a General Educational Development textbook to complete his lost secondary academics and bought a sewing machine to create a new Spider-Man Suit from scratch as he would resume his efforts as an independent vigilante. He continued to act as Spider-Man, following May's words that "with great power, there must also come great responsibility".[2]

Personality[]

"Even after she was hurt, she said to me that we did the right thing. She told me that with great power..."
"Comes great responsibility."
Peter Parker and Peter Parker[src]

May Parker cared deeply for and was very protective of her nephew Peter, having to raise him alone after the death of her husband. She was seen as Peter's confidant and friend as well as his guardian, helping him prepare for his date with Liz Toomes and later, asking out Michelle Jones. May constantly worried about Peter and gave him advice, including that she believed Tony Stark's "internship" may not have been the best thing for him; May was personally wary of Stark since his mentoring seemingly left Peter distracted and tired, which took away from his school life. However, she seemed to have let go of this resentment by the Blip, attending Stark's funeral after his sacrifice.

Having been an implied rebel in her youth, May was a lively woman with a playful, witty disposition, encouraging her nephew not to grow up too fast and enjoy being a teenager. May had been a subject of attraction to both Stark and Delmar, which is further evident when a waiter at Prachya Thai flirted with her and gave her free food, though she seemed fairly oblivious to this. However, May was very perceptive and sharp-minded; she was able to deduce that there was something else going on with Peter due to him keeping secrets, skipping class and sneaking out, but couldn't quite put her finger on it until she learned his secret identity. May was also an avid reader, based on the many books seen in her apartment.

After her husband's death, May had started getting really protective of her nephew, who was reluctant to tell her about him being Spider-Man in fear of putting his aunt under more stress than she was already in. Contrary to Peter's concerns however, May proved to be very supportive of her nephew's activities as Spider-Man after she witnessed him wearing the suit. May encouraged Peter to continue his heroics in the wake of Stark's death and helped with Spider-Man's publicity at charity events, both to give Peter exposure and bring awareness to the less fortunate.

May was very kind, devoted and selfless. She was an empathetic human being who cared for everybody around her regardless of their past as shown when she talked to Norman Osborn, a megalomaniac criminal in his own universe under the moniker of Green Goblin, only to realize that he wasn't really a bad person in the inside, it's just that he had been corrupted by the powers he received from the Goblin Formula. This made her encourage her nephew to save all of the villains to send them back as reformed human beings, knowing there was still good in them.

Throughout her life as a human being, May had developed a high sense of responsibility to help those who were in need if she had the power to do so, which was why she allowed her nephew to continue doing what he was doing, as she knew his powers weren't a gift for him, but everybody around him too. This was a lesson she had passed onto her nephew within her dying moments after being attacked by Green Goblin, telling him "with great power, there must also come great responsibility," so that her nephew would never stop helping people.

Facilities[]

  • Parker Residence: The Parker Residence was the apartment home to May and her nephew, Peter. When Tony Stark was required to bring Captain America and his team into custody, he told May that Peter had applied for a "grant" and was going to Germany. After Spider-Man's battle at the airport with the Avengers, May tended to Peter's bruises in his room. Two months later when Peter returned home from school to the residence, Peter then discovered that Stark had returned his suit. Spider-Man put on the suit again, only for a shocked May to discover him in it, unmasked.
  • F.E.A.S.T. Community Center: May Parker worked for F.E.A.S.T. at their community center, where she met Norman Osborn and called Peter Parker to tell him. Peter rushed to May's aid, only to find May helping Osborn and talking to him. May told Peter to make sure to help people, including the multiversal travelers he had accidentally brought into their universe. She then drove Peter and Osborn to the New York Sanctum.
  • Happy Hogan's Condominium: With Peter Parker's identity as Spider-Man exposed to the public, their apartment became dangerous for them to live in. Therefore Happy Hogan invited May and Peter to live in his condominium. They lived there into the school year, where May received mail regarding Peter's college acceptance. May later helped Peter bring several multiversal travelers to the apartment, where she treated them as guests while Peter attempted to cure them. However, Green Goblin began fronting in his body, leading to a battle in which May was killed by the Green Goblin.
