The MCU does not show Uncle Ben’s death on screen, but it still shapes Peter Parker’s character. The idea of responsibility runs through his actions and reflects the lessons from Amazing Fantasy #15 in 1962. Peter struggles to balance his personal life and his duties as Spider-Man. This keeps the spirit of the original story alive without directly repeating it. The iconic line about great power and responsibility finally appears in Spider-Man: No Way Home. It cements Peter’s growth as a hero and ties back to his comic book origins. The decision to focus on his struggles instead of retelling his origin allows the MCU to stay fresh while honoring the source material.
