Uncle Ben Was An Important Stimulant To Peter Parker's Spider-Man

Improved Essays
The death of Uncle Ben was an important stimulant to the storyline of Spider-Man. Without this happening Parker wouldn’t have the weight of seeing the evil in the world. Parker needed to hear Uncle Ben last words, needed that push. If he didn’t then Parker wouldn’t have had used his powers for good.

    Ben’s dad’s recognition of guilt transforms him into a 3d character. Throughout the body of the story, Ben’s dad was originally the head of the operation to stop the terrorists and was willing to use any means to do so. He parallels Artkin who is the head of the terrorists and is also willing to use any means to close the Inner Delta. That meant both Artkin and Ben’s dad did not feel guilty about using the school children or Ben as their main means for their respective goals, despite the harm done to both parties. Therefore, both of them are missing guilt, a core emotion, and it shows that they’re not really full “human” characters due to their lack of human emotion.…

    Monsters have long been used to express an inner flaw or turmoil that is manifested in a particular society or an individual. We see this time and time again, from Little Red Riding Hood to the collection of Grimm’s Fairytales. Night of the Living Dead, the movie can be seen as a struggle or revolt against collectivism and consumer culture.

He believes his world is identically tantamount with animals in control, and with humans in control. As the book progresses, Benjamin is in several significant scenes in the book, where he is a bystander, but does nothing. An example of this is when Benjamin saw squealer changing the commandments.…
