Ben Parker is his name, so I'd assume he is the one you are looking for.

It was Uncle Ben, I think.

Aunt May's maiden name was May Reilly.


Edit: And yes, I hate myself for knowing this shit.

oh, that's not so bad.
you just know something about a character you dig. on that level it's not incredibly geeky.

Sad part is, the main reason I knew Uncle Ben's last name is because of "Ben Reilly".
I knew that Aunt May's maiden name was Reilly, so she wasn't related to Peter by blood.

Taking into account that Ben Reilly was one of those pesky Spider clones, I can 100% admit he is not a character I dig or am proud to know about.

You are not alone. I knew that for the exact same reason, and I never even read any of those clone stories. I actually want to read them to see if they are as terrible as everybody says.

I will forgive the insult since you made a website where we fucking nerds can gather and feel special.

Thanks, Josh, Ron and Conor!

If I can't make these jokes, I wither and die.

In truth, I was impressed, because I've never thought of it. He's not even related to May...I mean, that's a hell of a woman, isn't it?

A hell of a woman. I'd even think about making a deal with the devil to save her.... wait. Nevermind. Forget I mentioned that.
