Aunt May has quite a few badass moments sprinkled throughout Spidey history, even if that aspect of her didn’t really come to the fore until the 2000s. Stories like Funeral Arrangements from Spectacular Spider-Man 186-188 foreshadow how cool she’d become. Funnily enough, that story was about Aunt May refusing to forgive Vulture for Nathan’s death! I kind of hate Nathan as a character (at least, after he got made into the rudest man on earth for no reason) but he seemed to provoke quite a lot of good character moments from May.
Is that what JR has said more than once about Nathan on the podcast?
