History

The father of J. J. Jameson, who was very distanced from his son. When he returned to New York he met Spider-Man during a subway accident caused by the Shocker. Jameson being a great supporter of Spider-Man, felt sorry for the previous articles his son wrote about him.

He started dating May Parker, and married her sometime later. After various incidents in New York, like the attack of Alistaire Smythe and his Spider-Slayers, as well as the Serpent, he decided to move with May to Boston, even though they eventually returned to New York.

May and John eventually moved back to New York, not long before Doc Ock switched minds with Peter and usurped his life. During the Goblin Nation attack, Mary Jane got the couple to safety. After Peter regained control of his body and defeated the Goblin Nation, he apologized for "his" behavior and decided to check May's hip prosthesis (made by Doc Ock) and promised to severe all his and Parker Industries' (also made by Octavius) ties with Spider-Man.

When Peter's company was propelled to success and became a megacorporation, May and Jay became part of the Uncle Ben Foundation, a charity focused on providing help for the less fortunate and raise the quality of life wherever it could be possible. After returning home from Africa, Jay fell victim to a rare and hereditary disease. He was hospitalized at the Mount Sinai Hospital, where he died afterwards.
