[Spider-man] Who are Peter Parker's parents? What is the deal with them?
gpt
Richard and Mary Parker (née Fitzpatrick) were C.I.A. spies who met and fell in love on the job. While on missions they often left their infant son, Peter, in the care of Richard's brother and sister-in-law Ben and May.

Their final mission involved them going undercover and pretending to be traitors to the US in order to infiltrate a criminal organization in Algeria run by Albert Malik, who was posing as the Red Skull. Unfortunately he found out about them and ordered their assassination which was carried out by a sabotaged aircraft.

They were declared dead after the recovery of two burned bodies at thr crash site. Their names went uncleared so Ben and May raised Peter alone and never told him about his parent's past.

Eventually, as Spider-Man, Peter learned the story, tracked down the assassin and cleared his parent's names.
