Noah Watson (Earth-5340)

"He knows a hero when he sees one. Too few characters out there, flying around like that, saving some old people like me. And Lord knows, kids like Henry need a hero. Courageous, self-sacrificing people. Setting examples for all of us. Everybody loves a hero. People line up for them, cheer them, scream their names. And years later, they'll tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the one who taught them how to hold on a second longer."

Noah Watson is the uncle of Mary Jane Watson and a retired radio host. After the death of his brother, Noah, alongside his wife Barbara raised their niece Mary Jane as their own daughter. After taking care of her, the Watson family was struck with the death of Barbara at the hands of a criminal.

While Mary Jane started helping Noah by becoming a photographer at the Planet Bugle while simultaneously studying (and unknown to him acting as the vigilante Spider-Woman), Noah started to take many different jobs in order to stablize his and Mary's financial life.
