Why are Aunt May and her husband ancient when they're the sister in law and brother of someone whose child is a high school student?
>>
Significantly older siblings (say, Ben's the oldest of 7, and Peter Sr. is the youngest, or an equivalent age gap for some reason), and/or Peter's parents waited until they'd finished their lengthy education careers to have a child.

Could also be that she's a great aunt (grandparent's sibling) and it's just too much of a mouthful to say all the time.
>>
I have a brother 18 years younger than I am
>>
Why is she so ancient when she's Peter's mother?
>>
>>82060392
Because May is the female version of the First Doctor.
>>
>>82060982
Because that wasn't Peter, that was Wade Wilson.
>>
>>82061147
I think I'd remember if Wade Wilson were in Aunt May's Summer Slut-a-thon.
>>
>>82060943
How old are your parents and your brother?
>>
>>82061322
That's because the kid wasn't named Wade Wilson yet. He got abducted by someone and then got adopted by the Wilsons.

>>82060392
My girlfriend is 31 and she's already a great-aunt. Her family is full of hoebags, so that didn't surprise me.
>>
>>82061322
What comic is this?
>>
>>82060392
I call my Great Aunt my Aunt, they're probably his Dad's Aunt and Uncle
>>
>>82062684
No, Richard Parker is Ben's brother. I'm guessing Ben was just 15-20 years older than Peter's dad.

Do by chance have a large abundance of melanin in your skin?

Grandpa married someone really young and had a kid with her. We rarely do family reunions but when we do having him with my other uncle and aunts and mom is weird as hell.
>>82064817
As white as you can get.
>>
>>82064830
Then is your nephew by any chance also your...other nephew?
>>
>>82064858
I don't have any nephews. My sisters only just started talking about having kids.
>>
My Grandfather is...77 this year I think. His oldest sister would be 103 this year if she hadn't have died about 5 or so years ago. He was the youngest of 4 I think, maybe more. He has multiple nieces and nephews who are older than him. My mum never really had proper cousins on that side of the family, they were basically her aunts and uncles.
>>
If Trouble were actually canon, then May and Ben would be candidates for worst genetics, aging like milk in just fifteen years.

Peter's parents approximately 35 when they have him. There is an approximately 15 year age gap between Richard & Ben. Peter was 15 when bitten. Making Uncle Ben & Aunt May 65. Old people looked older back in the 60s as well.

Why live?

My eldest sibling is in her 40s and my youngest sibling just turned 13.

Large age gaps happen.

>>82060392

Large age gaps between siblings used to be much more common than they are today. Having a decrepit, widowed aunt wouldn't have seemed unusual in 1962 when Spider-Man debuted, when families of ten or more children were common and the eldest might be twenty years older than the youngest (and then factor in the possibility of that youngest having a late child...).

Also, people used to just plain look older at younger ages. They didn't take care of themselves, smoked a lot, drank a lot, had debilitating childhood illnesses that aged them, ate less nutritious foods. If I were to compare a picture of my grandmother to one of my mother at any given age after about 30 (and my mom turns 65 next month), I'd take my grandmother for being considerably older.

She's technically not actually related to him.
Though she doesn't work in the scenario unless she got married to his uncle when she was a teenager
>>
>>82068171
Then it works even easier. Older guys marry younger girls all the time.

It's happening in comics, too, at a much slower rate.She looks at least 10 years younger now, and when's the last time she got sick? Is it Mephisto's doing?
>>
>>82064801
My sister is about five years older than our aunt.
My mom's brother fucked my mom's sister, too.
Families are weird.

That's straight up incest, anon.
