Should Aunt May die for good?

[Frontier]

If it could tell a good story, maybe. But in those adaptations had a sense of finality that the comics don't. On top of that, both of the deaths I can think of led to development for Peter. Marvel seems to be allergic to that these days.

She doesn't NEED to die. Quite frankly I'm glad they've gone away from writing her as some frail old woman and instead seem to write her more like her Ultimate counterpart.

Although her Ultimate counterpart feels much more involved than she does now.

Are you referring to Into the Spider-Verse and Insomniac Games' Spider-Man on PS4/5, by any chance? That said, I do agree with you on Aunt May not needing to die, at least as long as they write her as the kind of spirited, determined, and resolute woman who damn well could have raised the Marvel Universe's greatest hero.

I still love that moment during or after The Conversation where she apologized to Peter, following her discovery that he was Spider-Man all along, for how she'd threatened him while Ock was courting her. And let's not forget ASM 80.BEY, which was pretty good on Aunt May's characterization, insofar as her ultimately rebuking and rejecting Ock, realizing he'd never really change, not even for her sake.

Insomniac and No Way Home actually. I actually forgot about Peter B's Aunt May.

I have to say... the Marisa Tomei casting was genius. She's 58 right now, old enough to be a grandmother....

OK I've changed my mind on this.

Because I just found out about Strange Adventures #97 and "Goodbye to Linda Brown"

Aunt May has been keeping secrets and they must be exposed. Her niece was a Mermaid and she displayed the same characteristics as the niece.

Thanks for the reminder there.

Genius, indeed.

Aunt May: Assassin would basically be Superior Spider-Man but its about Aunt May going all Frank Castle on everybody.
