Editing Uncle Ben (section)

===Original appearance===
Lee and Ditko introduced the character of "Uncle Ben" alongside "Aunt May" in the June 1962 issue of ''[[Strange Tales]]'' #97, four months before his ''Amazing Fantasy'' debut. In the story "Goodbye to Linda Brown," the characters are given no surname. They care for a young woman named Linda Brown who develops a sleepwalking habit, just like Ben and May used to have. When Linda sleepwalks to the sea in her wheelchair, she becomes a mermaid.<ref name="Strange Tales">{{Cite web |last=Seifert |first=Mark |date=2021-11-29 |title=Aunt May, Uncle Ben and the Prototypical Story of Strange Tales #97 |url=https://bleedingcool.com/comics/aunt-may-uncle-ben-and-the-prototypical-story-of-strange-tales-97/ |access-date=2022-07-21 |website=Bleeding Cool}}</ref><ref name="Goodbye to Linda Brown">{{Cite comic |Artist=Steve Ditko |Writer=Stan Lee |Story=Goodbye to Linda Brown |url=https://read.marvel.com/#/book/52770 |Title=Stange Tales |Volume=1 |Issue=97 |Publisher=Marvel |accessdate=2022-07-21 |date=June 1962}}</ref>
