Miles Gonzalo Morales[1][2] () is a fictional character, a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He is one of the characters known as Spider-Man, having been created in 2011 by writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Sara Pichelli, with input by Marvel’s then-editor-in-chief Axel Alonso.

Miles Morales first appeared in Ultimate Fallout #4 (August 2011), following the death of Peter Parker. The 13-year-old biracial teenage son of an African-American father and a Puerto Rican mother, he is the second Spider-Man to appear in Ultimate Marvel, an imprint with a separate continuity from the mainstream Marvel Universe called the Ultimate Universe (Earth-1610).[6] He was featured in the Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man comic book series, and after Marvel ended the Ultimate imprint in 2015, Miles was made a character in the main Marvel Universe (Earth-616), beginning with stories under the All-New, All-Different Marvel branding that debuted that same year. The character was not the lead character in the Ultimate Spider-Man animated television series on Disney XD, but was later added to the main cast, as Kid Arachnid.[7] The character was the main protagonist in the 2018 animated feature film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, as well as its 2023 and 2024 sequels.

Reaction to the character varied, with some, including Spider-Man’s co-creator, Stan Lee, approving the creation of a positive role model for children of color. Others expressed displeasure at the replacement of Peter Parker, with The Guardian, Fox News, and Culture Map Houston reporting that some fans viewed the decision as an attempt by Marvel Comics to exhibit political correctness, and that the introduction of a minority Spider-Man was simply a publicity stunt to attract more readers,[8][9][10][11] a charge Alonso denied.[8] Alexandra Petri of The Washington Post called for the character to be judged on the quality of his stories, which garnered positive reviews.[12]

The character possesses powers similar to those of the original Spider-Man, which were derived from the bite of a spider genetically engineered by Spider-Man’s nemesis Norman Osborn in an attempt to duplicate those abilities.

Publication history[edit]

The concept of an African American Spider-Man was first discussed a few months before the November 2008 election of Barack Obama as President of the United States. Marvel Comics’ then-editor-in-chief Axel Alonso describes the catalyst, «When we were planning ‘Ultimatum,’ we realized that we were standing at the brink of America electing its first African-American President and we acknowledged that maybe it was time to take a good look at one of our icons.» This new Spider-Man would replace Parker as Spider-Man only in Ultimate Marvel, an imprint whose storyline is set in a universe separate from the mainstream Marvel universe, in which Marvel’s characters were reimagined for a 21st-century audience. The replacement of Ultimate Peter Parker was considered as a possible part of the 2008–09 «Ultimatum» story arc that restructured much of the Ultimate Marvel universe, but those early thoughts were abandoned because the story for that character had not yet been developed.[8] When Marvel’s editorial staff decided that the Ultimate universe’s Peter Parker would be killed in the 2011 storyline «Death of Spider-Man», the character Miles Morales was created.[13] Although Morales is the first black Spider-Man, he marks the second time a Latino character has taken the Spider-Man identity. Miguel O’Hara, who is of Mexican and Irish descent, was the title character in the 1990s series Spider-Man 2099.[9]

The first appearance of Miles Morales as Spider-Man, from Ultimate Fallout #4 (Aug. 2011)

Miles Morales was created by writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Sara Pichelli.[8][14] Bendis’s thoughts about the character, and the way he looked in his first appearance, were heavily influenced by African-American actor Donald Glover’s appearance in Spider-Man pajamas in «Anthropology 101», the second-season premiere of the television comedy series Community. This was a reference to an unsuccessful online campaign that attempted to secure Glover an audition for the lead role in the 2012 film The Amazing Spider-Man. Bendis said of Glover, «He looked fantastic! I saw him in the costume and thought, ‘I would like to read that book.’ So I was glad I was writing that book.»[13]

In creating the visual look for Miles, Pichelli followed her usual practice of approaching the design by giving thought to the character’s personality, including the background that influenced it, and the distinctive traits that he would exhibit, such as the clothing he wears, his body language and expressions.[15] Pichelli also designed Spider-Man’s new costume, a mostly black outfit with red webbing and a red spider logo. Pichelli had worked on four issues of Ultimate Spider-Man before she was approached to work on the new title with Miles Morales.[16] Pichelli, who works with a Cintiq 12wx graphic tablet,[14] added more screentones to her illustrations to give what she called «a more ‘pop’ feeling to the book», which she felt would be fitting to the series.[16]

Morales was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York City, the then-13-year-old[17] son of an African American father and a Puerto Rican mother.[18] Axel Alonso has described Miles as an intelligent nerd with an aptitude for science similar to his predecessor, Peter Parker.[8] The character made his debut in the fourth issue of the Ultimate Fallout miniseries, which was released on August 3, 2011. He later starred in the relaunched Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man series, written by Bendis and drawn by Pichelli, in September 2011.[13][19][20]

In contrasting Miles with Peter Parker, Bendis has depicted different conflicts and anxieties for the character. Right after acquiring his superhuman abilities from a spider bite at the home of his uncle, Aaron, whom Miles admires but he does not initially know is a career criminal, Miles’ father, Jefferson, explains to Miles that before Miles was born, Jefferson and Aaron were thieves who spent time in prison, and that while Jefferson reformed when he got older, Aaron has not.[21] According to Bendis, this gives Miles cause to wonder if the traits that lead to criminal behavior are hardwired into his DNA, leading him to question whether he is essentially a good person or not, and what his future holds for him.[22] These issues further haunt Miles after he becomes disillusioned with Aaron, and Aaron dies from an accidental explosion triggered during a battle between the two of them, saying, «You are just like me» to Miles before dying.[23]

In 2012, Morales appeared in the miniseries Spider-Men, in which he encounters the Spider-Man of the mainstream Marvel universe.[13] In June 2013, the character appeared in the climax of Age of Ultron #10, which was also written by Brian Michael Bendis. Though mostly set in the mainstream Marvel universe, or Earth-616 as it is known in dialogue, the story depicts major changes to the space-time continuum as a result of the time travel on the part of characters, resulting in Miles witnessing the coming of the mainstream Marvel Galactus, an entity that consumes planets, to Earth.[24]

Despite its initial press and critical reception, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man was not a huge hit in the direct market. By August 2013, sales on the title had slipped, and sales for the other two Ultimate titles, Ultimate Comics X-Men and Ultimate Comics The Ultimates, had dropped to numbers at which mainstream Marvel titles are canceled.[20] That November, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man ended its run with issue #28, and the other two titles ended along with it, to make way for the miniseries Cataclysm: Ultimate Spider-Man, one of the books in the crossover storyline «Cataclysm», in which the heroes of the Ultimate universe face the threat of the Earth-616 Galactus, and Miles is transported to the mainstream Marvel universe.[20][25]

Following «Cataclysm», Miles starred in a new title called Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, again with Bendis as writer, as part of Ultimate Marvel Now, an initiative with which Marvel relaunched the Ultimate Marvel line. Miles Morales was also made a member of the eponymous team in All-New Ultimates, a series written by Michel Fiffe and drawn by Amilcar Pinna.[26][27] Both series ran for 12 issues.[28][29] The twelfth and final issue of Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man concluded with a cliffhanger that led directly into the 2015 «Secret Wars» storyline.[29]

Marvel ended the Ultimate Marvel imprint with the «Secret Wars» storyline,[30] in which the Marvel Universe was merged with other alternate universes, including the Ultimate Universe.[31][32][33] Following «Secret Wars», Miles was made a character of the mainstream Marvel Universe, and a member of the titular team in All-New, All-Different Avengers.[34] He also headlines his third solo series, titled simply Spider-Man, which debuted February 3, 2016, with Bendis and Pichelli returning as the creative team.[18] Pichelli would be succeeded by Nico Leon and Oscar Bazaldua.[35] In the storyline, Peter Parker expands the scope of his activities globally, while the now-16-year-old Miles continues to patrol New York City, and deals with issues such as confrontations with Parker’s rogues gallery, the public’s reaction to his ethnicity, and his love life.[17] Each issue was numbered sequentially beginning with issue 1, and ending with issue 21, when the numbering switched to legacy numbering, in order to assume an unbroken numbering from 2000’s Ultimate Spider-Man #1, with the following issue continuing with issue 234.[35] On November 7, 2017, it was announced that Bendis, having signed an exclusive contract with DC Comics, would be leaving Marvel in early 2018,[36] and Spider-Man canceled with issue #240 (May 2018).[35][37]

On September 13, 2018, Marvel announced that Saladin Ahmed and Javier Garron would be the writer and artist, respectively on a fourth ongoing solo series, Miles Morales: Spider-Man, the first issue of which was released on December 12, 2018, coinciding with the premiere of the animated feature film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.[38][39] The visual design of that film would reportedly influence a new costume designed by Chase Conley for the character’s tenth anniversary in 2021, which included trademark sneakers.[40] This series concluded with issue 42 in September 2022. In December 2022 Marvel debuted the next series, Miles Morales: Spider-Man by writer Cody Ziglar and artist Federico Vicentini.[41]

On July 9, 2020, Marvel announced that an original graphic novel, Miles Morales: Shock Waves, would be released in 2021 in partnership with Scholastic, written by Opposite of Always author Justin A. Reynolds, with art by Pablo Leon.[42]

Fictional character biography[edit]

First appearance[edit]

Miles Morales first appeared in Ultimate Comics: Fallout #4, which was published in August 2011, in which he foils an assault by Kangaroo a short time after Peter Parker’s death. He wears a Spider-Man costume similar to Parker’s, but considers changing it when spectators tell him it is in «bad taste».[43][44]

Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man[edit]

The opening story arc of Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man, which premiered in September 2011, is set prior to Ultimate Fallout #4, and establishes the character of Miles Morales, a grade-schooler[45] who lives with his mother Rio Morales,[46][47] a nurse,[2] and his father Jefferson Davis,[46] and details how he received his superhuman abilities. After scientist Dr. Conrad Markus[a] uses Parker’s blood to recreate the formula that created Spider-Man, the Prowler[48] (Aaron Davis[45]) steals the formula, and in the process, one of the spiders created by Markus crawls into the Prowler’s duffel bag. Days later, Miles[48] is bitten by the spider during a visit to Aaron’s apartment. Morales develops superhuman abilities similar to those Peter has,[48] but does not tell his parents, due to his father’s distrust of superheroes,[21] confiding only in his best friend Ganke Lee.[21][47]

Miles, who wants a normal life, is unhappy about having these abilities and resistant to the idea of risking his life to engage in superheroics,[49] a reaction that Bendis wrote to further contrast Miles with Parker.[22] However, after witnessing Spider-Man’s death at the Green Goblin’s hands, the guilt-ridden Miles realizes he could have helped. After Ganke suggests he assume the Spider-Man mantle, and learns from Gwen Stacy why Parker did what he did, Miles is inspired to try costumed crimefighting.[50]

His first time out, he is confronted not only by those who feel his use of the Spider-Man costume is in bad taste,[43][50] but also by Spider-Woman over his use of the Spider-Man identity.[50] She unmasks and arrests Miles and takes him to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, where Nick Fury reveals that he knows about Miles and his family, including the criminal activity of Miles’ uncle. After Miles helps S.H.I.E.L.D. subdue the escaped supervillain Electro, S.H.I.E.L.D. releases Miles and gives him a modified black-and-red version of the Spider-Man costume, which Ganke feels makes Miles «officially» the new Spider-Man.[45] He also receives the blessing of the Earth-616 Peter Parker during the 2012 Spider-Men miniseries, in which Parker briefly visits the Ultimate Marvel universe and meets Miles.[51] After the media report the emergence of a new Spider-Man, Aaron deduces that it is Miles,[52] and offers to train Miles and work with him. After Aaron uses Miles in his ongoing conflict with the Mexican crime lord Scorpion, Miles realizes he is being exploited, and refuses to assist his uncle further, despite Aaron’s threat to inform Jefferson of his secret. This leads to an altercation that results in the malfunction of Aaron’s weapons, which explode,[53] killing Aaron.[23]

In subsequent storylines, Miles becomes acquainted with Parker’s loved ones, May Parker, Gwen and Mary Jane Watson, who know of his secret identity and give him Parker’s web shooters. He also work alongside the Ultimates superhuman team’s various members.[3][23]

In a 2013 storyline, when investigative journalist Betty Brant incorrectly concludes that Miles’ father, Jefferson, is the new Spider-Man, she is murdered[54] by Markus, who has become the Venom symbiote’s newest host. In the subsequent «Venom War» storyline, Venom critically injures Jefferson. When Venom confronts Spider-Man at the hospital, Rio learns her son is Spider-Man. During the battle, both she and Markus are killed by police gunfire, though before she dies, Rio tells Miles not to reveal his secret to Jefferson.[55] Miles quits being Spider-Man as a result. A year later he has a girlfriend, Kate Bishop, and plans to tell her about his former life as Spider-Man. S.H.I.E.L.D. pressures him to return to that role,[56] and he reluctantly does so, after Ganke and Spider-Woman convince him that there needs to be a Spider-Man.[57][58]

«Cataclysm»[edit]

In the «Cataclysm» storyline, the mainstream Marvel version of Galactus comes to Miles’ Earth to consume it for its energy. Believing the world is ending, Miles reveals his double life to his father, who holds Miles responsible for the deaths of Aaron and Rio, and disowns him.[59] Miles also journeys to the mainstream Marvel universe with Reed Richards to acquire information on how to repel Galactus.[20][25][60]

Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man[edit]

In his second solo series, Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles encounters the presumed-dead Peter Parker, who cannot explain his reappearance, and who does not intend to return to his former life. Together, the two Spider-Men defeat the Goblin, who is also revealed to be alive, but who is killed during the course of the story. After witnessing Miles courageously battle the Goblin, Peter acknowledges Miles a worthy successor, and decides to retire from superheroics for a life with family and Mary Jane.[61]

Miles’ father Jefferson reappears, revealing to his son that as young men, Jefferson and Aaron worked for a criminal in the organization of Wilson Fisk, though Jefferson was spying for S.H.I.E.L.D. He afterward declined an offer to join S.H.I.E.L.D., and went on to marry Rio and have Miles. He explains he had fled after learning Miles was Spider-Man because it stirred unresolved issues from that time, and tells Miles he no longer blames him for his mother’s death, and regrets abandoning him.[62]

When Miles reveals his secret identity to Katie,[61] the Bishop family is revealed to be sleeper agents for the terrorist group Hydra[63] who then kidnap Miles, his father and Ganke, as part of a plan involving Dr. Doom. Miles and the other prisoners are freed, however, in part with help from Judge (Miles’s dorm mate), Maria Hill and other superhuman colleagues.[64]

End of Ultimate imprint and merge with Marvel-616[edit]

During the events of the 2015 «Secret Wars» storyline, both the Ultimate Marvel universe and the mainstream Earth-616 universe are destroyed. Miles survives the destruction by infiltrating an escape ship designed by the Cabal.[65] After eight years in stasis, Miles awakens on the planet Battleworld, created from the remains of destroyed alternate Earths. He reunites with Earth-616’s Peter Parker and the other surviving heroes from that former mainstream-Marvel Earth. They battle Doctor Doom, who with his new powers, appointed himself God Emperor of the planet.[66] At the conclusion of the storyline, the Molecule Man, in gratitude for Miles’ earlier compassion, restores Earth-616, with Miles and his family, including his mother, restored to life in the process, among its inhabitants.[67] Aaron is also later revealed to have been restored to life, retaining his knowledge of Miles’s dual identity, and becomes the villainous Iron Spider.[68] Both Miles and Peter share the Spider-Man mantle in the new universe,[67] though the now-16-year-old Miles patrols New York City, while Peter acts globally.[17][69] Miles also joins the latest team of Avengers in the 2016 series All-New, All-Different Avengers,[70]

In this new continuity, Miles and his loved ones initially have no memories of their origins in the Ultimate universe, though Miles eventually learns of his past there, including details such as Rio’s «death».[71][72] Jefferson is aware of his double life, but Rio is not,[73] nor is S.H.I.E.L.D.,[74] though Rio eventually learns the truth.[75] Miles’ circle of fellow superheroes who know of his double identity expands to include Kamala Khan, the fourth Ms. Marvel,[76] and the former X-Man Fabio Medina, a school roommate of Miles and Ganke.[77] This group of confidants later includes the teen superhero Bombshell.[78] His relationship with Bishop apparently did not occur in this continuity, as Miles begins seeing classmate Barbara Rodriguez, whom he calls his «first serious girlfriend», who is unaware of his double life.[79] Miles becomes a central figure in the 2016–2017 «Civil War II» storyline.[80][81] Afterward, Miles joins other teen superheroes to form a new incarnation of the Champions, who star in their self-titled series.[82]

In a 2019 story, Jefferson tells Miles he has his mother’s surname because Jefferson’s physically abusive father was «not a good person» and not having his grandfather’s name gave Miles a «clean start.»[83]

Powers and abilities[edit]

Bitten by a genetically engineered spider known as specimen 42, which is slightly different than the one that granted Peter Parker superhuman powers, Miles Morales possesses abilities similar to the original Spider-Man’s, including enhanced strength, agility, and reflexes, the ability to adhere to walls and ceilings with his hands and feet,[21][84] and a «spider sense» that warns him of danger with a buzzing sensation in his head.[43][50] Though his strength and agility are similar to those of the original younger Spider-Man, his spider-sense is not as strong, as it only warns him of immediate danger.[22]

He has two abilities that the original Spider-Man does not have: the ability to camouflage himself, including his clothing, to match his surroundings, making him effectively invisible,[22][48] and a «venom strike» that can temporarily paralyze almost anyone with just a touch.[21] The venom strike does not employ actual venom, but is a type of directed energy that can be conducted through Miles’ gloves,[45] and can be used against an opponent at a distance by conducting it through a material in which both Miles and his opponent are in contact, such as the webbing of the Earth-616’s Spider-Man.[85] It can break chains being used to restrain Miles[86] and even repel non-ferrous objects, such as plastic Lego bricks.[21] The venom strike is powerful enough to render unconscious a person as large as Hank Pym’s Giant-Man.[87] It is powerful enough to drive away the symbiotic villain Venom during Miles’ first encounter with the creature,[88] but by their second encounter, Venom has developed such a tolerance to the strike that Miles has to be completely enveloped by the symbiote before the venom strike is able to separate the symbiote from its host.[89] Doctor Octopus also developed a set of tentacles that would not conduct the venom strike.[90] The effect of the venom strike manifests itself a few seconds after it is implemented, and is described by Bendis as being comparable to the feeling of being kicked in the testicles.[22] Miles can effect a more powerful version of the strike, which he calls a «mega venom blast».[78] When Miles employs this ability, his eyes glow with yellow energy, which then explodes outwards in a radiant burst that can not only repel a large group of opponents,[91] but also destroy thick ropes and chains that have been used to restrain him. This application of the strike leaves him «dizzy and useless»,[78] and cannot be used multiple times in rapid succession without a «recharging» period for Miles, though he can still make use of the conventional strike against people during this period.[72][86] The conventional venom strike is mostly useless against the supervillain Armadillo, but during Miles’ encounter with that villain, his venom blast manifests itself in a form similar to Miles’ webbing, and Miles uses it like a lasso to pull Armadillo towards him and knock him unconscious with a venom strike-powered punch.[78]

Miles’ body also possesses a significant resistance to injury. During an altercation with the Roxxon mercenary Taskmaster, Miles is thrown through a brick wall without any apparent serious injury, though the experience is painful for him.[84][92]

Miles wears a costume given to him by S.H.I.E.L.D.,[45] and initially uses Peter Parker’s web shooters, which are given to him by May Parker.[3] He is eventually given a new set of webshooters by S.H.I.E.L.D. as well.[56]

Reception[edit]

People who say this is a PC stunt miss the point. Miles Morales is a reflection of the culture in which we live. I love the fact that my son Tito will see a Spider-Man swinging through the sky whose last name is «Morales». And judging from the response, I can see I’m not alone.

Axel Alonso[8]

The character Miles Morales was first reported by USA Today on August 2, 2011, shortly before the character officially debuted in Ultimate Fallout #4.[6][19] The announcement received international coverage in the mainstream media and was met with mixed reactions by audiences.[9] Chris Huntington of The New York Times lauded the creation of Morales, relating that it gave his adopted Ethiopian son Dagim a superhero who looks like him.[93] The Guardian and Culture Map Houston reported that some fans viewed the decision as an example of political correctness, and that the introduction of a minority Spider-Man was a publicity stunt to attract more readers,[8][9][10][11] while others felt that a person of color as Spider-Man would set a positive example for minority readers, particularly children.[12] Many Spider-Man fans were disappointed that Peter Parker was killed, regardless of who replaced him.[9] The wide-ranging critical reception prompted The Washington Post to run an article called, «Sorry, Peter Parker. The response to the black Spider-Man shows why we need one», in which writer Alexandra Petri wrote that the character should be judged on the quality of its stories rather than on his appearance or ethnicity.[12]

Radio host and conservative pundit Lou Dobbs expressed outrage over the original Spider-Man being replaced by Morales, stating during a television commentary, «Peter Parker, who was a white orphan from Queens, was killed off in June during a fight with his nemesis, the Green Goblin…Marvel Comics saying it’s replacing the iconic character with Miles Morales, who is part Latino and part Black.» Political satirist Jon Stewart mocked Dobbs’ criticism on The Daily Show, while also pointing out that Morales replaced Spider-Man only in the Ultimate universe, and that the original Peter Parker would still be appearing in several titles.[94][95] Conservative talk show host Glenn Beck, claiming that Miles resembled President Barack Obama, argued that the new Spider-Man was a result of a comment from Michelle Obama about changing traditions. However, Beck said he did not care about Miles’ race, and also acknowledged that this was not the mainstream Spider-Man.[96] Axel Alonso denied the character was created out of political correctness, stating «Simple fact is Marvel comics reflect the world in all its shapes, sizes and colors. We believe there’s an audience of people out there who is thirsty for a character like Miles Morales.»[8] Bendis also denied that the character’s ethnicity was an attempt to generate publicity.[97] Original Spider-Man co-creator Stan Lee approved of Miles, stating that «Doing our bit to try to make our nation, and the world, color blind is definitely the right thing.»[98]

In a review for the first issue, David Pepose of Newsarama wrote, «The biggest victory that Bendis scores with Miles Morales is that he makes us care about him, and care about him quickly. Even though we’re still scratching the surface of what makes him tick, we’re seeing the world through his eyes, and it’s similar to Peter Parker’s but a whole lot tougher. But that kind of Parker-style guilt—that neurotic, nearly masochistic tendency for self-sacrifice that comes with great power and greater responsibility—is still intact.»[99] Jesse Schedeen of IGN wrote that «Miles still feels like a bit of an outsider in his own book. Bendis never quite paints a complete picture of Miles—his thoughts, motivations, personality quirks, and so forth. Miles is largely a reactionary figure throughout the book as he confronts struggles like registering for a charter school or dealing with family squabbles.» Schedeen also opined that «Miles occupies a more urban, racially diverse, and tense landscape. All the story doesn’t pander or lean too heavily on elements like racial and economic tension to move forward. Miles is simply a character who speaks to a slightly different teen experience, and one not nearly as well represented in superhero comics as Peter’s».[100] James Hunt of CBR.com rated the issue #1 four and a half out of five stars, lauding Bendis for emphasizing Morales’ character and his supporting cast instead of rushing him into costume.[101] The first issue holds a score of 8.0 out of 10 at the review aggregator website Comic Book Roundup, based on 13 reviews, while the final issue, #200, holds a score of 8.4, based on 14 reviews, and the series overall holds an average issue rating of 8.3.[102]

The second solo series, Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, has an average issue rating of 8.2 out of 10 at Comic Book Roundup,[103] while the third series, Spider-Man, holds a rating of 7.6,[35] and the fourth, Miles Morales: Spider-Man, holds a rating of 8.4.[104]

Alternate versions[edit]

Ultimatum[edit]

Miles as Ultimatum, from Miles Morales: Spider-Man #10 (Nov. 2019)

In the 2012 miniseries Spider-Men, the mainstream Marvel Universe Peter Parker briefly visits the Ultimate Marvel universe and meets Miles Morales.[105] This was followed up in the 2017 sequel miniseries Spider-Men II, in which the Earth-616 version of Miles Morales makes his first appearance,[106] and is revealed to be a fully-grown adult with a scarred face.[72][107][108][109] The version of Miles became a close friend and confidant to the mob enforcer Wilson Fisk when he saved Fisk’s life in prison, an event that resulted in the scars on Miles’ face. Miles worked for Fisk following their time in prison, aiding him during Wilson’s violent rise to crime boss in New York. Subsequent to this, after Miles fell in love with a woman named Barbara Sanchez, Fisk arranged to have all traces of Miles’ existence erased from searchable records in order help Miles leave his criminal life behind him.[110][111] Years later, after Barbara died, Fisk informs a grief-stricken Miles that he has knowledge of a parallel universe in which Barbara might still be alive.[112] Miles hires the Taskmaster, who confirms not only that the Ultimate Universe still exists following the events of the «Secret Wars» storyline, but that its version of Barbara is still alive. The adult Miles journeys to the Ultimate Universe to reunite with his lost love, essentially switching places with his younger counterpart.[113]

In a 2019–2020 storyline, Miles takes on the criminal identity of Ultimatum, and having acquired a costume equipped with the size-shifting technology of Giant-Man, returns to the Marvel-616 universe with the Ultimate Universe’s Green Goblin as his henchman. He establishes a crime partnership with Fisk,[83] and floods the area with a drug derived from Green Goblin’s blood that mutates people into monstrous slaves called Goblinoids. He kidnaps the teenaged Miles and Aaron Davis, and reveals to them the existence of the multiverse. He plans to return Miles and his family to the Ultimate Universe with an interdimensional portal generator, after which he will be free to take over Brooklyn without interference. After the two abductees free themselves, they and their allies battle Ultimatum’s forces.[114] During the melee, Aaron induces an explosion that destroys the portal generator and sends the two villains back to the Ultimate Universe, but which kills himself in the process, a loss that devastates Miles.[115]

Other versions[edit]

In Deadpool Killustrated #1 (Jan. 2013), Miles Morales’ corpse is seen among those of various Spider-Men across various dimensions of the multiverse that an alternate Deadpool has killed.[116]

In the 2014 book Ultimate FF #4, a version of Miles Morales’ Spider-Ham is introduced with the name Miles Morhames, who hails from a dimension inhabited by beings that resemble anthropomorphic animals. His origin is similar to the Ultimate version, in that after the death of Peter Porker, Miles Morhames was inspired to become a hero.[117][118][119]

In the 2017 «Sitting in a Tree» storyline that ran in Spider-Man and Spider-Gwen, Miles is transported to Earth-8, where that dimension’s versions of him and fellow costumed crimefighter Gwen Stacy have been married for 20 years,[120] and have two children.[121]

In a 2017 storyline that ran in Unbelievable Gwenpool, a future version of Miles Morales whose wife and child were killed after an evil Gwen Poole of the future revealed his and all other superheroes’ identities, travels back in time to kill a young Gwen. He accidentally brings the older version of Gwen Poole with him, which leads to her to encounter her younger self.[122][123][124]

In the 2017 book Venomverse: War Stories #1, a version of Miles appears with other heroes in the world of the Venomized Doctor Doom, in which each person is bonded to a symbiote.[125]

In «Secret Roar», a 2019 story in Spider-Man Annual (Vol. 3) #1, different versions of Earth’s superheroes gather together to fight a Celestial, including a feline version of Miles Morales named Meows Morales. He is presumed dead along with most of the heroes after being killed by the Celestial.[126]

In the continuity of the 2019 miniseries Spider-Man: Life Story, which depicts the characters of the Marvel Universe aging naturally after 1962, Miles becomes Spider-Man sometime in the 2010s. An elderly Peter Parker discovers that Miles’ brain houses the mind of Otto Octavius, who took possession of Miles’ body shortly after Miles became Spider-Man, and trapped the young hero in his own dying body (as Octavius had done to Peter in the 2012 Marvel-616 storyline «Dying Wish»). After Peter sacrifices his life in saving Octavius, Octavius switches his and Miles back to their original bodies, after which Miles is given Peter’s original Spider-Man costume by Mary Jane Watson.[127]

An elderly Miles Morales appears as the main protagonist of the one-shot Miles Morales: The End, which is set in a post-apocalyptic Brooklyn, and casts Miles as «the last bastion of civilization».[128] The book is one of six featuring Marvel characters as part of its The End series, which were announced at the 2019 New York Comic Con for January 2020 release.[129]

In the 2021 «Heroes Reborn» storyline, a change in the timeline results in a continuity in which the Squadron Supreme are Earth’s mightiest heroes while the Avengers never existed. In this continuity, after Falcon was killed by the Goblin, Miles used his electrical engineering knowledge to design a flight suit and became the new Falcon. The original Falcon’s partner, Nighthawk, still traumatized by his death, refuses to mentor Miles. Miles later forms a team called the Champions with Girl Power (Kamala Khan) and Kid Spectrum (Sam Alexander).[130]

The 2022 miniseries What If…? Miles Morales introduces alternate versions of Miles that had become Captain America, Wolverine, Hulk, and Thor. Issue 4, written by Yehudi Mercado and drawn by Paco Medina and Luigi Zagaria, garnered controversy for its stereotypical language and depictions of black culture.[131][132][133] Mercado, who identifies as Mexican and Jewish, publicly apologized for this. He stated he would donate his salary for the issue to the Brooklyn Book Bodega, and resolved to work toward effecting greater authenticity in his depiction of minorities.[131][133][134]

The 13-year-old biracial teenage son of an African-American father and a Puerto Rican mother, he is the second Spider-Man to appear in Ultimate Marvel, an imprint with a separate continuity from the mainstream Marvel Universe called the Ultimate Universe (Earth-1610).[6] He was featured in the Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man comic book series, and after Marvel ended the Ultimate imprint in 2015, Miles was made a character in the main Marvel Universe (Earth-616), beginning with stories under the All-New, All-Different Marvel branding that debuted that same year. The character was not the lead character in the Ultimate Spider-Man animated television series on Disney XD, but was later added to the main cast, as Kid Arachnid.[7] The character was the main protagonist in the 2018 animated feature film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, as well as its 2023 and 2024 sequels.

Reaction to the character varied, with some, including Spider-Man’s co-creator, Stan Lee, approving the creation of a positive role model for children of color. Others expressed displeasure at the replacement of Peter Parker, with The Guardian, Fox News, and Culture Map Houston reporting that some fans viewed the decision as an attempt by Marvel Comics to exhibit political correctness, and that the introduction of a minority Spider-Man was simply a publicity stunt to attract more readers,[8][9][10][11] a charge Alonso denied.[8] Alexandra Petri of The Washington Post called for the character to be judged on the quality of his stories, which garnered positive reviews.[12]

The character possesses powers similar to those of the original Spider-Man, which were derived from the bite of a spider genetically engineered by Spider-Man’s nemesis Norman Osborn in an attempt to duplicate those abilities.

Publication history[edit]

The concept of an African American Spider-Man was first discussed a few months before the November 2008 election of Barack Obama as President of the United States. Marvel Comics’ then-editor-in-chief Axel Alonso describes the catalyst, «When we were planning ‘Ultimatum,’ we realized that we were standing at the brink of America electing its first African-American President and we acknowledged that maybe it was time to take a good look at one of our icons.» This new Spider-Man would replace Parker as Spider-Man only in Ultimate Marvel, an imprint whose storyline is set in a universe separate from the mainstream Marvel universe, in which Marvel’s characters were reimagined for a 21st-century audience. The replacement of Ultimate Peter Parker was considered as a possible part of the 2008–09 «Ultimatum» story arc that restructured much of the Ultimate Marvel universe, but those early thoughts were abandoned because the story for that character had not yet been developed.[8] When Marvel’s editorial staff decided that the Ultimate universe’s Peter Parker would be killed in the 2011 storyline «Death of Spider-Man», the character Miles Morales was created.[13] Although Morales is the first black Spider-Man, he marks the second time a Latino character has taken the Spider-Man identity. Miguel O’Hara, who is of Mexican and Irish descent, was the title character in the 1990s series Spider-Man 2099.[9]

The first appearance of Miles Morales as Spider-Man, from Ultimate Fallout #4 (Aug. 2011)

Miles Morales was created by writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Sara Pichelli.[8][14] Bendis’s thoughts about the character, and the way he looked in his first appearance, were heavily influenced by African-American actor Donald Glover’s appearance in Spider-Man pajamas in «Anthropology 101», the second-season premiere of the television comedy series Community. This was a reference to an unsuccessful online campaign that attempted to secure Glover an audition for the lead role in the 2012 film The Amazing Spider-Man. Bendis said of Glover, «He looked fantastic! I saw him in the costume and thought, ‘I would like to read that book.’ So I was glad I was writing that book.»[13]

In creating the visual look for Miles, Pichelli followed her usual practice of approaching the design by giving thought to the character’s personality, including the background that influenced it, and the distinctive traits that he would exhibit, such as the clothing he wears, his body language and expressions.[15] Pichelli also designed Spider-Man’s new costume, a mostly black outfit with red webbing and a red spider logo. Pichelli had worked on four issues of Ultimate Spider-Man before she was approached to work on the new title with Miles Morales.[16] Pichelli, who works with a Cintiq 12wx graphic tablet,[14] added more screentones to her illustrations to give what she called «a more ‘pop’ feeling to the book», which she felt would be fitting to the series.[16]

Morales was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York City, the then-13-year-old[17] son of an African American father and a Puerto Rican mother.[18] Axel Alonso has described Miles as an intelligent nerd with an aptitude for science similar to his predecessor, Peter Parker.[8] The character made his debut in the fourth issue of the Ultimate Fallout miniseries, which was released on August 3, 2011. He later starred in the relaunched Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man series, written by Bendis and drawn by Pichelli, in September 2011.[13][19][20]

In contrasting Miles with Peter Parker, Bendis has depicted different conflicts and anxieties for the character. Right after acquiring his superhuman abilities from a spider bite at the home of his uncle, Aaron, whom Miles admires but he does not initially know is a career criminal, Miles’ father, Jefferson, explains to Miles that before Miles was born, Jefferson and Aaron were thieves who spent time in prison, and that while Jefferson reformed when he got older, Aaron has not.[21] According to Bendis, this gives Miles cause to wonder if the traits that lead to criminal behavior are hardwired into his DNA, leading him to question whether he is essentially a good person or not, and what his future holds for him.[22] These issues further haunt Miles after he becomes disillusioned with Aaron, and Aaron dies from an accidental explosion triggered during a battle between the two of them, saying, «You are just like me» to Miles before dying.[23]

In 2012, Morales appeared in the miniseries Spider-Men, in which he encounters the Spider-Man of the mainstream Marvel universe.[13] In June 2013, the character appeared in the climax of Age of Ultron #10, which was also written by Brian Michael Bendis. Though mostly set in the mainstream Marvel universe, or Earth-616 as it is known in dialogue, the story depicts major changes to the space-time continuum as a result of the time travel on the part of characters, resulting in Miles witnessing the coming of the mainstream Marvel Galactus, an entity that consumes planets, to Earth.[24]

Despite its initial press and critical reception, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man was not a huge hit in the direct market. By August 2013, sales on the title had slipped, and sales for the other two Ultimate titles, Ultimate Comics X-Men and Ultimate Comics The Ultimates, had dropped to numbers at which mainstream Marvel titles are canceled.[20] That November, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man ended its run with issue #28, and the other two titles ended along with it, to make way for the miniseries Cataclysm: Ultimate Spider-Man, one of the books in the crossover storyline «Cataclysm», in which the heroes of the Ultimate universe face the threat of the Earth-616 Galactus, and Miles is transported to the mainstream Marvel universe.[20][25]

Following «Cataclysm», Miles starred in a new title called Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, again with Bendis as writer, as part of Ultimate Marvel Now, an initiative with which Marvel relaunched the Ultimate Marvel line. Miles Morales was also made a member of the eponymous team in All-New Ultimates, a series written by Michel Fiffe and drawn by Amilcar Pinna.[26][27] Both series ran for 12 issues.[28][29] The twelfth and final issue of Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man concluded with a cliffhanger that led directly into the 2015 «Secret Wars» storyline.[29]

Marvel ended the Ultimate Marvel imprint with the «Secret Wars» storyline,[30] in which the Marvel Universe was merged with other alternate universes, including the Ultimate Universe.[31][32][33] Following «Secret Wars», Miles was made a character of the mainstream Marvel Universe, and a member of the titular team in All-New, All-Different Avengers.[34] He also headlines his third solo series, titled simply Spider-Man, which debuted February 3, 2016, with Bendis and Pichelli returning as the creative team.[18] Pichelli would be succeeded by Nico Leon and Oscar Bazaldua.[35] In the storyline, Peter Parker expands the scope of his activities globally, while the now-16-year-old Miles continues to patrol New York City, and deals with issues such as confrontations with Parker’s rogues gallery, the public’s reaction to his ethnicity, and his love life.[17] Each issue was numbered sequentially beginning with issue 1, and ending with issue 21, when the numbering switched to legacy numbering, in order to assume an unbroken numbering from 2000’s Ultimate Spider-Man #1, with the following issue continuing with issue 234.[35] On November 7, 2017, it was announced that Bendis, having signed an exclusive contract with DC Comics, would be leaving Marvel in early 2018,[36] and Spider-Man canceled with issue #240 (May 2018).[35][37]

On September 13, 2018, Marvel announced that Saladin Ahmed and Javier Garron would be the writer and artist, respectively on a fourth ongoing solo series, Miles Morales: Spider-Man, the first issue of which was released on December 12, 2018, coinciding with the premiere of the animated feature film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.[38][39] The visual design of that film would reportedly influence a new costume designed by Chase Conley for the character’s tenth anniversary in 2021, which included trademark sneakers.[40] This series concluded with issue 42 in September 2022. In December 2022 Marvel debuted the next series, Miles Morales: Spider-Man by writer Cody Ziglar and artist Federico Vicentini.[41]

On July 9, 2020, Marvel announced that an original graphic novel, Miles Morales: Shock Waves, would be released in 2021 in partnership with Scholastic, written by Opposite of Always author Justin A. Reynolds, with art by Pablo Leon.[42]

Fictional character biography[edit]

First appearance[edit]

Miles Morales first appeared in Ultimate Comics: Fallout #4, which was published in August 2011, in which he foils an assault by Kangaroo a short time after Peter Parker’s death. He wears a Spider-Man costume similar to Parker’s, but considers changing it when spectators tell him it is in «bad taste».[43][44]

Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man[edit]

The opening story arc of Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man, which premiered in September 2011, is set prior to Ultimate Fallout #4, and establishes the character of Miles Morales, a grade-schooler[45] who lives with his mother Rio Morales,[46][47] a nurse,[2] and his father Jefferson Davis,[46] and details how he received his superhuman abilities. After scientist Dr. Conrad Markus[a] uses Parker’s blood to recreate the formula that created Spider-Man, the Prowler[48] (Aaron Davis[45]) steals the formula, and in the process, one of the spiders created by Markus crawls into the Prowler’s duffel bag. Days later, Miles[48] is bitten by the spider during a visit to Aaron’s apartment. Morales develops superhuman abilities similar to those Peter has,[48] but does not tell his parents, due to his father’s distrust of superheroes,[21] confiding only in his best friend Ganke Lee.[21][47]

Miles, who wants a normal life, is unhappy about having these abilities and resistant to the idea of risking his life to engage in superheroics,[49] a reaction that Bendis wrote to further contrast Miles with Parker.[22] However, after witnessing Spider-Man’s death at the Green Goblin’s hands, the guilt-ridden Miles realizes he could have helped. After Ganke suggests he assume the Spider-Man mantle, and learns from Gwen Stacy why Parker did what he did, Miles is inspired to try costumed crimefighting.[50]

His first time out, he is confronted not only by those who feel his use of the Spider-Man costume is in bad taste,[43][50] but also by Spider-Woman over his use of the Spider-Man identity.[50] She unmasks and arrests Miles and takes him to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, where Nick Fury reveals that he knows about Miles and his family, including the criminal activity of Miles’ uncle. After Miles helps S.H.I.E.L.D. subdue the escaped supervillain Electro, S.H.I.E.L.D. releases Miles and gives him a modified black-and-red version of the Spider-Man costume, which Ganke feels makes Miles «officially» the new Spider-Man.[45] He also receives the blessing of the Earth-616 Peter Parker during the 2012 Spider-Men miniseries, in which Parker briefly visits the Ultimate Marvel universe and meets Miles.[51] After the media report the emergence of a new Spider-Man, Aaron deduces that it is Miles,[52] and offers to train Miles and work with him. After Aaron uses Miles in his ongoing conflict with the Mexican crime lord Scorpion, Miles realizes he is being exploited, and refuses to assist his uncle further, despite Aaron’s threat to inform Jefferson of his secret. This leads to an altercation that results in the malfunction of Aaron’s weapons, which explode,[53] killing Aaron.[23]

In subsequent storylines, Miles becomes acquainted with Parker’s loved ones, May Parker, Gwen and Mary Jane Watson, who know of his secret identity and give him Parker’s web shooters. He also work alongside the Ultimates superhuman team’s various members.[3][23]

In a 2013 storyline, when investigative journalist Betty Brant incorrectly concludes that Miles’ father, Jefferson, is the new Spider-Man, she is murdered[54] by Markus, who has become the Venom symbiote’s newest host. In the subsequent «Venom War» storyline, Venom critically injures Jefferson. When Venom confronts Spider-Man at the hospital, Rio learns her son is Spider-Man. During the battle, both she and Markus are killed by police gunfire, though before she dies, Rio tells Miles not to reveal his secret to Jefferson.[55] Miles quits being Spider-Man as a result. A year later he has a girlfriend, Kate Bishop, and plans to tell her about his former life as Spider-Man. S.H.I.E.L.D. pressures him to return to that role,[56] and he reluctantly does so, after Ganke and Spider-Woman convince him that there needs to be a Spider-Man.[57][58]

«Cataclysm»[edit]

In the «Cataclysm» storyline, the mainstream Marvel version of Galactus comes to Miles’ Earth to consume it for its energy. Believing the world is ending, Miles reveals his double life to his father, who holds Miles responsible for the deaths of Aaron and Rio, and disowns him.[59] Miles also journeys to the mainstream Marvel universe with Reed Richards to acquire information on how to repel Galactus.[20][25][60]

Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man[edit]

In his second solo series, Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles encounters the presumed-dead Peter Parker, who cannot explain his reappearance, and who does not intend to return to his former life. Together, the two Spider-Men defeat the Goblin, who is also revealed to be alive, but who is killed during the course of the story. After witnessing Miles courageously battle the Goblin, Peter acknowledges Miles a worthy successor, and decides to retire from superheroics for a life with family and Mary Jane.[61]

Miles’ father Jefferson reappears, revealing to his son that as young men, Jefferson and Aaron worked for a criminal in the organization of Wilson Fisk, though Jefferson was spying for S.H.I.E.L.D. He afterward declined an offer to join S.H.I.E.L.D., and went on to marry Rio and have Miles. He explains he had fled after learning Miles was Spider-Man because it stirred unresolved issues from that time, and tells Miles he no longer blames him for his mother’s death, and regrets abandoning him.[62]

When Miles reveals his secret identity to Katie,[61] the Bishop family is revealed to be sleeper agents for the terrorist group Hydra[63] who then kidnap Miles, his father and Ganke, as part of a plan involving Dr. Doom. Miles and the other prisoners are freed, however, in part with help from Judge (Miles’s dorm mate), Maria Hill and other superhuman colleagues.[64]

End of Ultimate imprint and merge with Marvel-616[edit]

During the events of the 2015 «Secret Wars» storyline, both the Ultimate Marvel universe and the mainstream Earth-616 universe are destroyed. Miles survives the destruction by infiltrating an escape ship designed by the Cabal.[65] After eight years in stasis, Miles awakens on the planet Battleworld, created from the remains of destroyed alternate Earths. He reunites with Earth-616’s Peter Parker and the other surviving heroes from that former mainstream-Marvel Earth. They battle Doctor Doom, who with his new powers, appointed himself God Emperor of the planet.[66] At the conclusion of the storyline, the Molecule Man, in gratitude for Miles’ earlier compassion, restores Earth-616, with Miles and his family, including his mother, restored to life in the process, among its inhabitants.[67] Aaron is also later revealed to have been restored to life, retaining his knowledge of Miles’s dual identity, and becomes the villainous Iron Spider.[68] Both Miles and Peter share the Spider-Man mantle in the new universe,[67] though the now-16-year-old Miles patrols New York City, while Peter acts globally.[17][69] Miles also joins the latest team of Avengers in the 2016 series All-New, All-Different Avengers,[70]

In this new continuity, Miles and his loved ones initially have no memories of their origins in the Ultimate universe, though Miles eventually learns of his past there, including details such as Rio’s «death».[71][72] Jefferson is aware of his double life, but Rio is not,[73] nor is S.H.I.E.L.D.,[74] though Rio eventually learns the truth.[75] Miles’ circle of fellow superheroes who know of his double identity expands to include Kamala Khan, the fourth Ms. Marvel,[76] and the former X-Man Fabio Medina, a school roommate of Miles and Ganke.[77] This group of confidants later includes the teen superhero Bombshell.[78] His relationship with Bishop apparently did not occur in this continuity, as Miles begins seeing classmate Barbara Rodriguez, whom he calls his «first serious girlfriend», who is unaware of his double life.[79] Miles becomes a central figure in the 2016–2017 «Civil War II» storyline.[80][81] Afterward, Miles joins other teen superheroes to form a new incarnation of the Champions, who star in their self-titled series.[82]

In a 2019 story, Jefferson tells Miles he has his mother’s surname because Jefferson’s physically abusive father was «not a good person» and not having his grandfather’s name gave Miles a «clean start.»[83]

Powers and abilities[edit]

Bitten by a genetically engineered spider known as specimen 42, which is slightly different than the one that granted Peter Parker superhuman powers, Miles Morales possesses abilities similar to the original Spider-Man’s, including enhanced strength, agility, and reflexes, the ability to adhere to walls and ceilings with his hands and feet,[21][84] and a «spider sense» that warns him of danger with a buzzing sensation in his head.[43][50] Though his strength and agility are similar to those of the original younger Spider-Man, his spider-sense is not as strong, as it only warns him of immediate danger.[22]

He has two abilities that the original Spider-Man does not have: the ability to camouflage himself, including his clothing, to match his surroundings, making him effectively invisible,[22][48] and a «venom strike» that can temporarily paralyze almost anyone with just a touch.[21] The venom strike does not employ actual venom, but is a type of directed energy that can be conducted through Miles’ gloves,[45] and can be used against an opponent at a distance by conducting it through a material in which both Miles and his opponent are in contact, such as the webbing of the Earth-616’s Spider-Man.[85] It can break chains being used to restrain Miles[86] and even repel non-ferrous objects, such as plastic Lego bricks.[21] The venom strike is powerful enough to render unconscious a person as large as Hank Pym’s Giant-Man.[87] It is powerful enough to drive away the symbiotic villain Venom during Miles’ first encounter with the creature,[88] but by their second encounter, Venom has developed such a tolerance to the strike that Miles has to be completely enveloped by the symbiote before the venom strike is able to separate the symbiote from its host.[89] Doctor Octopus also developed a set of tentacles that would not conduct the venom strike.[90] The effect of the venom strike manifests itself a few seconds after it is implemented, and is described by Bendis as being comparable to the feeling of being kicked in the testicles.[22] Miles can effect a more powerful version of the strike, which he calls a «mega venom blast».[78] When Miles employs this ability, his eyes glow with yellow energy, which then explodes outwards in a radiant burst that can not only repel a large group of opponents,[91] but also destroy thick ropes and chains that have been used to restrain him. This application of the strike leaves him «dizzy and useless»,[78] and cannot be used multiple times in rapid succession without a «recharging» period for Miles, though he can still make use of the conventional strike against people during this period.[72][86] The conventional venom strike is mostly useless against the supervillain Armadillo, but during Miles’ encounter with that villain, his venom blast manifests itself in a form similar to Miles’ webbing, and Miles uses it like a lasso to pull Armadillo towards him and knock him unconscious with a venom strike-powered punch.[78]

Miles’ body also possesses a significant resistance to injury. During an altercation with the Roxxon mercenary Taskmaster, Miles is thrown through a brick wall without any apparent serious injury, though the experience is painful for him.[84][92]

Miles wears a costume given to him by S.H.I.E.L.D.,[45] and initially uses Peter Parker’s web shooters, which are given to him by May Parker.[3] He is eventually given a new set of webshooters by S.H.I.E.L.D. as well.[56]

Reception[edit]

People who say this is a PC stunt miss the point. Miles Morales is a reflection of the culture in which we live. I love the fact that my son Tito will see a Spider-Man swinging through the sky whose last name is «Morales». And judging from the response, I can see I’m not alone.

Axel Alonso[8]

The character Miles Morales was first reported by USA Today on August 2, 2011, shortly before the character officially debuted in Ultimate Fallout #4.[6][19] The announcement received international coverage in the mainstream media and was met with mixed reactions by audiences.[9] Chris Huntington of The New York Times lauded the creation of Morales, relating that it gave his adopted Ethiopian son Dagim a superhero who looks like him.[93] The Guardian and Culture Map Houston reported that some fans viewed the decision as an example of political correctness, and that the introduction of a minority Spider-Man was a publicity stunt to attract more readers,[8][9][10][11] while others felt that a person of color as Spider-Man would set a positive example for minority readers, particularly children.[12] Many Spider-Man fans were disappointed that Peter Parker was killed, regardless of who replaced him.[9] The wide-ranging critical reception prompted The Washington Post to run an article called, «Sorry, Peter Parker. The response to the black Spider-Man shows why we need one», in which writer Alexandra Petri wrote that the character should be judged on the quality of its stories rather than on his appearance or ethnicity.[12]

Radio host and conservative pundit Lou Dobbs expressed outrage over the original Spider-Man being replaced by Morales, stating during a television commentary, «Peter Parker, who was a white orphan from Queens, was killed off in June during a fight with his nemesis, the Green Goblin…Marvel Comics saying it’s replacing the iconic character with Miles Morales, who is part Latino and part Black.» Political satirist Jon Stewart mocked Dobbs’ criticism on The Daily Show, while also pointing out that Morales replaced Spider-Man only in the Ultimate universe, and that the original Peter Parker would still be appearing in several titles.[94][95] Conservative talk show host Glenn Beck, claiming that Miles resembled President Barack Obama, argued that the new Spider-Man was a result of a comment from Michelle Obama about changing traditions. However, Beck said he did not care about Miles’ race, and also acknowledged that this was not the mainstream Spider-Man.[96] Axel Alonso denied the character was created out of political correctness, stating «Simple fact is Marvel comics reflect the world in all its shapes, sizes and colors. We believe there’s an audience of people out there who is thirsty for a character like Miles Morales.»[8] Bendis also denied that the character’s ethnicity was an attempt to generate publicity.[97] Original Spider-Man co-creator Stan Lee approved of Miles, stating that «Doing our bit to try to make our nation, and the world, color blind is definitely the right thing.»[98]

In a review for the first issue, David Pepose of Newsarama wrote, «The biggest victory that Bendis scores with Miles Morales is that he makes us care about him, and care about him quickly. Even though we’re still scratching the surface of what makes him tick, we’re seeing the world through his eyes, and it’s similar to Peter Parker’s but a whole lot tougher. But that kind of Parker-style guilt—that neurotic, nearly masochistic tendency for self-sacrifice that comes with great power and greater responsibility—is still intact.»[99] Jesse Schedeen of IGN wrote that «Miles still feels like a bit of an outsider in his own book. Bendis never quite paints a complete picture of Miles—his thoughts, motivations, personality quirks, and so forth. Miles is largely a reactionary figure throughout the book as he confronts struggles like registering for a charter school or dealing with family squabbles.» Schedeen also opined that «Miles occupies a more urban, racially diverse, and tense landscape. All the story doesn’t pander or lean too heavily on elements like racial and economic tension to move forward. Miles is simply a character who speaks to a slightly different teen experience, and one not nearly as well represented in superhero comics as Peter’s».[100] James Hunt of CBR.com rated the issue #1 four and a half out of five stars, lauding Bendis for emphasizing Morales’ character and his supporting cast instead of rushing him into costume.[101] The first issue holds a score of 8.0 out of 10 at the review aggregator website Comic Book Roundup, based on 13 reviews, while the final issue, #200, holds a score of 8.4, based on 14 reviews, and the series overall holds an average issue rating of 8.3.[102]

The second solo series, Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, has an average issue rating of 8.2 out of 10 at Comic Book Roundup,[103] while the third series, Spider-Man, holds a rating of 7.6,[35] and the fourth, Miles Morales: Spider-Man, holds a rating of 8.4.[104]

Alternate versions[edit]

Ultimatum[edit]

Miles as Ultimatum, from Miles Morales: Spider-Man #10 (Nov. 2019)

In the 2012 miniseries Spider-Men, the mainstream Marvel Universe Peter Parker briefly visits the Ultimate Marvel universe and meets Miles Morales.[105] This was followed up in the 2017 sequel miniseries Spider-Men II, in which the Earth-616 version of Miles Morales makes his first appearance,[106] and is revealed to be a fully-grown adult with a scarred face.[72][107][108][109] The version of Miles became a close friend and confidant to the mob enforcer Wilson Fisk when he saved Fisk’s life in prison, an event that resulted in the scars on Miles’ face. Miles worked for Fisk following their time in prison, aiding him during Wilson’s violent rise to crime boss in New York. Subsequent to this, after Miles fell in love with a woman named Barbara Sanchez, Fisk arranged to have all traces of Miles’ existence erased from searchable records in order help Miles leave his criminal life behind him.[110][111] Years later, after Barbara died, Fisk informs a grief-stricken Miles that he has knowledge of a parallel universe in which Barbara might still be alive.[112] Miles hires the Taskmaster, who confirms not only that the Ultimate Universe still exists following the events of the «Secret Wars» storyline, but that its version of Barbara is still alive. The adult Miles journeys to the Ultimate Universe to reunite with his lost love, essentially switching places with his younger counterpart.[113]

In a 2019–2020 storyline, Miles takes on the criminal identity of Ultimatum, and having acquired a costume equipped with the size-shifting technology of Giant-Man, returns to the Marvel-616 universe with the Ultimate Universe’s Green Goblin as his henchman. He establishes a crime partnership with Fisk,[83] and floods the area with a drug derived from Green Goblin’s blood that mutates people into monstrous slaves called Goblinoids. He kidnaps the teenaged Miles and Aaron Davis, and reveals to them the existence of the multiverse. He plans to return Miles and his family to the Ultimate Universe with an interdimensional portal generator, after which he will be free to take over Brooklyn without interference. After the two abductees free themselves, they and their allies battle Ultimatum’s forces.[114] During the melee, Aaron induces an explosion that destroys the portal generator and sends the two villains back to the Ultimate Universe, but which kills himself in the process, a loss that devastates Miles.[115]

Other versions[edit]

In Deadpool Killustrated #1 (Jan. 2013), Miles Morales’ corpse is seen among those of various Spider-Men across various dimensions of the multiverse that an alternate Deadpool has killed.[116]

In the 2014 book Ultimate FF #4, a version of Miles Morales’ Spider-Ham is introduced with the name Miles Morhames, who hails from a dimension inhabited by beings that resemble anthropomorphic animals. His origin is similar to the Ultimate version, in that after the death of Peter Porker, Miles Morhames was inspired to become a hero.[117][118][119]

In the 2017 «Sitting in a Tree» storyline that ran in Spider-Man and Spider-Gwen, Miles is transported to Earth-8, where that dimension’s versions of him and fellow costumed crimefighter Gwen Stacy have been married for 20 years,[120] and have two children.[121]

In a 2017 storyline that ran in Unbelievable Gwenpool, a future version of Miles Morales whose wife and child were killed after an evil Gwen Poole of the future revealed his and all other superheroes’ identities, travels back in time to kill a young Gwen. He accidentally brings the older version of Gwen Poole with him, which leads to her to encounter her younger self.[122][123][124]

In the 2017 book Venomverse: War Stories #1, a version of Miles appears with other heroes in the world of the Venomized Doctor Doom, in which each person is bonded to a symbiote.[125]

In «Secret Roar», a 2019 story in Spider-Man Annual (Vol. 3) #1, different versions of Earth’s superheroes gather together to fight a Celestial, including a feline version of Miles Morales named Meows Morales. He is presumed dead along with most of the heroes after being killed by the Celestial.[126]

In the continuity of the 2019 miniseries Spider-Man: Life Story, which depicts the characters of the Marvel Universe aging naturally after 1962, Miles becomes Spider-Man sometime in the 2010s. An elderly Peter Parker discovers that Miles’ brain houses the mind of Otto Octavius, who took possession of Miles’ body shortly after Miles became Spider-Man, and trapped the young hero in his own dying body (as Octavius had done to Peter in the 2012 Marvel-616 storyline «Dying Wish»). After Peter sacrifices his life in saving Octavius, Octavius switches his and Miles back to their original bodies, after which Miles is given Peter’s original Spider-Man costume by Mary Jane Watson.[127]

An elderly Miles Morales appears as the main protagonist of the one-shot Miles Morales: The End, which is set in a post-apocalyptic Brooklyn, and casts Miles as «the last bastion of civilization».[128] The book is one of six featuring Marvel characters as part of its The End series, which were announced at the 2019 New York Comic Con for January 2020 release.[129]

In the 2021 «Heroes Reborn» storyline, a change in the timeline results in a continuity in which the Squadron Supreme are Earth’s mightiest heroes while the Avengers never existed. In this continuity, after Falcon was killed by the Goblin, Miles used his electrical engineering knowledge to design a flight suit and became the new Falcon. The original Falcon’s partner, Nighthawk, still traumatized by his death, refuses to mentor Miles. Miles later forms a team called the Champions with Girl Power (Kamala Khan) and Kid Spectrum (Sam Alexander).[130]

The 2022 miniseries What If…? Miles Morales introduces alternate versions of Miles that had become Captain America, Wolverine, Hulk, and Thor. Issue 4, written by Yehudi Mercado and drawn by Paco Medina and Luigi Zagaria, garnered controversy for its stereotypical language and depictions of black culture.[131][132][133] Mercado, who identifies as Mexican and Jewish, publicly apologized for this. He stated he would donate his salary for the issue to the Brooklyn Book Bodega, and resolved to work toward effecting greater authenticity in his depiction of minorities.[131][133][134]

In other media[edit]

After being alluded to in the first season, Miles is introduced in the third season four-part episode «The Spider-Verse».[135][136][137][138] Miles returns as a recurring character in the fourth season, during which he gets stranded in Peter Parker’s universe, joins the Web Warriors, and takes on the alias Kid Arachnid.[139][140]

Film[edit]

  • Writer Brian Michael Bendis stated in 2014 that he favored adapting Miles Morales into a feature film in some way,[151] as did actor Andrew Garfield, who played Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man films.[152] Producers Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach indicated in 2014 that they did not intend to have Miles or any other character replace Peter Parker in the role.[153][154] However, after Marvel brokered a deal with Sony that resulted in the addition of Peter Parker to the films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), producer Kevin Feige stated that, while Miles Morales would not appear in the MCU for the foreseeable future, he was interested in opportunities to explore the character.[155] In 2017, Feige confirmed that Miles Morales does exist in the MCU, as Aaron Davis mentions to Peter Parker in the film Spider-Man: Homecoming that he has a nephew,[156] who is revealed in a deleted scene to be named Miles.[157][158] Miles is again alluded to in Spider-Man: No Way Home when Garfield’s iteration of Spider-Man is unmasked and his nemesis, Max Dillon / Electro (Jamie Foxx), is disappointed to see he is Caucasian, saying, «There’s gotta be a black Spider-Man somewhere out there.»[159][160]

In a private email, Bendis stated that the first spelling is the correct one.

Background

1994 — 2008: Miles Morales

Miles Morales was born to Jefferson Davis, an African American man & Rio Morales, a Puerto Rican mother. He was born & raised in Brooklyn, where the city is protected by the beloved vigilante Spiderman. In their house resides Miles, his parents, his much younger sister & his maternal grandmother.

At a young age, it was obvious Miles had an aptitude for science. He eventually won a scholastic contest which enrolled him in Brooklyn Visions Academy. He was reluctant to leave behind his friends but luckily, his best friend Ganke was also transferring. His reluctance surrounding his new school occasionally put him at odds with his father. After a while, school began to stress Miles out, which caused him to visit his paternal uncle Aaron Davis against his parents’ wishes. Aaron led Miles to an abandoned subway terminal, which served as a canvas for Miles to freely graffiti & express himself as a way to release stress. While in the subway, Miles was bitten by a genetically modified spider, which he nonchalantly smacked & killed.

The following day, Miles underwent a bizarre series of changes, including a growth spurt & the ability to adhere to materials & surfaces. He then had an awkward encounter with Barbara Rodriguez, a girl he admires at his new school, when he accidentally got his fingers stuck to her hair & she has to shear part of it off. He also discovered that he can walk on walls & the ceiling. Freaked out, he returned to his dorm room to find his Ganke’s comic book about Spiderman & realized he’s experiencing similar things as the superhero.

Determined to prove to himself that he has not developed the same powers, he revisited the subway terminal where the spider bit him & found that the spider exhibits bizarre traits even after its death. Afraid he might be a mutant, he told Ganke & confessed his new-found abilities to him. In denial, Miles then climbed the walls of his bedroom & Ganke was overjoyed & in disbelief. Though Ganke found it cool, Miles just wanted to be normal as his father often spoke negatively of mutants.

2008 — 2010: Shadow Spider

Despite deciding to leave the heroism to Spiderman, Miles changed his mind after the crimefighter saved his mother’s life. He followed in Spiderman’s philosophy & decided to continue his legacy. During his first night out patrolling, Miles faced Kangaroo. When he arrived, the villain asked «Why are you hiding in the shadows, Spidey?» believing him to be the original Spiderman. From this encounter came the codename, Shadow Spider.

When Electro woke up from his coma in the medical ward, he went on a rampage in New York City. Though Spiderman & his team of heroes were there, Miles decided to try his hand & became crucial in the heroes victory. When the dust settled, Spiderman rewarded Miles with his approval of his crimefighting & even asked him to become a probationary member of the Spider Army.

Upon gaining his new costume from Spiderman, he stopped a mugging, albeit very sloppily. Someone caught video of him on their phone then sell the footage to J. Jonah Jameson at the Daily Bugle. The story of a new slinging hero in New York quickly made the headlines. Back at his parents’ house, the Morales family discussed the all-new Shadow Spider which resulted in Miles’ parents taking different sides. His father was against the new hero because of the fact that a mutant should not be able to use his powers whenever & however they want to. Miles’ mother thought Shadow Spider was really cool & noted that thanks to the original Spiderman, countless lives & their city were saved. Later that night, Ganke came over & gave Miles security footage of Spiderman fighting with various villains. Under Ganke’s suggestion, Miles began practicing Spiderman’s moves to become a better crimefighter. After months of training, he went to the source & learned from Spiderman directly. In time, Spiderman revealed his identity as Peter Parker & Miles did the same.

Miles soon conquered his fear of heights, leading to him hopping around rooftops & testing his wall-crawling abilities on a tall buildings regularly. While practicing one night, Miles heard an explosion occur. As he swung over, he felt a buzzing in his head which was his Spider-Sense & understood its purpose as he dodged a flying car. He came face to face with Omega Red but was able to end the battle by using his Venom Blast, putting a stop to the villain. As Miles continued to train harder to fight the more dangerous & lethal villains, a new vigilante by the name of Ghost Spider makes their way in New York City. Miles did not like the new superhero, as she did not seem to care for helping people as much as being in the spotlight.

Along with his best friends Ganke & Quinn Stacy, Miles attended Brooklyn Vision Academy’s homecoming. As they were enjoying themselves, his Spider-Sense began tingling. He left Ganke & Quinn on the floor while going to investigate but got held up by a teacher questioning him. When he arrived at the scene, he saw Ghost Spider standing over the dead body of his classmate Neel Chambel. Ghost Spider immediately fled the scene, leading to Miles blaming her for his death & she was soon branded a criminal.

Similar to the NYPD, Miles led an investigation into Ghost Spider as he took Neel’s death personal. He eventually cornered her in an abandoned warehouse as she thwarted a murder attempt on the NYPD Captain. Knowing there was no way out, the vigilante pulled off her mask to reveal her secret identity: his best friend Quinn. Not able to arrest her, he told her to leave the scene before he changed his mind.

Miles struggled with this revelation for some time, not even mentioning it to Peter as he was aware of their close relationship. He began avoiding Quinn, as he was unsure on how to talk to her anymore. After a week of avoiding both of them, he arrived at the Parker residence to talk to Peter but found him with Quinn. With Peter’s blessing, Miles admitted he was Shadow Spider & was aware of both her & Peter’s masked identities. After explaining his avoidance of both of them, Peter personally vouched for Quinn & Miles took his word on it. To clear Quinn’s name, the three of them did a test on Neel’s body to provide evidence of his transformation. With this new information, Quinn was able to gain back most of the public’s trust & Miles renewed his friendship with her.

Background

1994 — 2008: Miles Morales

Miles Morales was born to Jefferson Davis, an African American man & Rio Morales, a Puerto Rican mother. He was born & raised in Brooklyn, where the city is protected by the beloved vigilante Spiderman. In their house resides Miles, his parents, his much younger sister & his maternal grandmother.

At a young age, it was obvious Miles had an aptitude for science. He eventually won a scholastic contest which enrolled him in Brooklyn Visions Academy. He was reluctant to leave behind his friends but luckily, his best friend Ganke was also transferring. His reluctance surrounding his new school occasionally put him at odds with his father. After a while, school began to stress Miles out, which caused him to visit his paternal uncle Aaron Davis against his parents’ wishes. Aaron led Miles to an abandoned subway terminal, which served as a canvas for Miles to freely graffiti & express himself as a way to release stress. While in the subway, Miles was bitten by a genetically modified spider, which he nonchalantly smacked & killed.

The following day, Miles underwent a bizarre series of changes, including a growth spurt & the ability to adhere to materials & surfaces. He then had an awkward encounter with Barbara Rodriguez, a girl he admires at his new school, when he accidentally got his fingers stuck to her hair & she has to shear part of it off. He also discovered that he can walk on walls & the ceiling. Freaked out, he returned to his dorm room to find his Ganke’s comic book about Spiderman & realized he’s experiencing similar things as the superhero.

Determined to prove to himself that he has not developed the same powers, he revisited the subway terminal where the spider bit him & found that the spider exhibits bizarre traits even after its death. Afraid he might be a mutant, he told Ganke & confessed his new-found abilities to him. In denial, Miles then climbed the walls of his bedroom & Ganke was overjoyed & in disbelief. Though Ganke found it cool, Miles just wanted to be normal as his father often spoke negatively of mutants.

2008 — 2010: Shadow Spider

Despite deciding to leave the heroism to Spiderman, Miles changed his mind after the crimefighter saved his mother’s life. He followed in Spiderman’s philosophy & decided to continue his legacy. During his first night out patrolling, Miles faced Kangaroo. When he arrived, the villain asked «Why are you hiding in the shadows, Spidey?» believing him to be the original Spiderman. From this encounter came the codename, Shadow Spider.

When Electro woke up from his coma in the medical ward, he went on a rampage in New York City. Though Spiderman & his team of heroes were there, Miles decided to try his hand & became crucial in the heroes victory. When the dust settled, Spiderman rewarded Miles with his approval of his crimefighting & even asked him to become a probationary member of the Spider Army.

Upon gaining his new costume from Spiderman, he stopped a mugging, albeit very sloppily. Someone caught video of him on their phone then sell the footage to J. Jonah Jameson at the Daily Bugle. The story of a new slinging hero in New York quickly made the headlines. Back at his parents’ house, the Morales family discussed the all-new Shadow Spider which resulted in Miles’ parents taking different sides. His father was against the new hero because of the fact that a mutant should not be able to use his powers whenever & however they want to. Miles’ mother thought Shadow Spider was really cool & noted that thanks to the original Spiderman, countless lives & their city were saved. Later that night, Ganke came over & gave Miles security footage of Spiderman fighting with various villains. Under Ganke’s suggestion, Miles began practicing Spiderman’s moves to become a better crimefighter. After months of training, he went to the source & learned from Spiderman directly. In time, Spiderman revealed his identity as Peter Parker & Miles did the same.

Miles soon conquered his fear of heights, leading to him hopping around rooftops & testing his wall-crawling abilities on a tall buildings regularly. While practicing one night, Miles heard an explosion occur. As he swung over, he felt a buzzing in his head which was his Spider-Sense & understood its purpose as he dodged a flying car.

« Меня зовут Майлз Моралес, и меня укусил радиоактивный паук. Какое-то время я был единственным Человеком-пауком, а остальное вы знаете. »

Майлз Моралес (англ. Miles Morales) — был укушен радиоактивным пауком и получил паучьи силы. Стал свидетелем смерти Человека-паука. Позже стал вторым Человеком-пауком.

Биография

Обретение силы

Жизнь обычного подростка

Майлз Моралес вырос в любящей семье. Его отец был полицейским, а мать работала в больнице. Как и большинство подростков, юноша любил рисовать и музыку. А еще Майлз повсюду расклеивал свои стикеры, в том числе на улице, что очень не нравилось его отцу. Помимо этого, офицеру Дэвису не нравился Человек-паук, который хоть и помогал ловить злодеев, но скрывал свою личность. А вот Майлз от Человека-паука фанател.

Майлз выиграл в лотерее и поступил в Бруклинскую академию «Вижнс», но сам он считал себя недостойным учиться там, и хотел вернуться в обычную школу. В академии Майлз не смог найти ни с кем общий язык, уроки давались ему тяжело, он постоянно опаздывал, что вызывало недовольство преподавателей.

Однажды после очередного опоздания Майлз попробовал отшутиться, но никто шутку не оценил, кроме одной девчонки, новенькой, которая сразу понравилась Майлзу.

Хотя в целом Майлз был способным учеником, он пытался заваливать контрольные, специально, чтобы его исключили, но его раскусили и заставили писать эссе на тему «Большие надежды».[и 1]

Разговоры по душам с дядей Аароном

Вместо того, чтобы писать эссе, Майлз пошел к своему дяде Аарону. Это был непутевый брат отца Майлза, и Джефферсон очень не одобрял общение сына с этим человеком, но Майлзу было все равно. Майлз рассказал дяде про новенькую, он дал ему совет, касаемо отношений. Потом они отправились в подземный туннель, где разрисовали граффити всю стену, при создании которой юноша вдохновлялся темой заданного эссе. Аарон работу племянника оценил. Он также понял, что у Майлза проблемы с отцом, и рассказал, что до того, как стать копом, Джефферсон был другим.

Пока Майлз с Аароном находились в туннеле, туда заполз паук с логотипом компании Alchemax, который укусил Майлза. Тот просто прихлопнул паука и пошел домой.[и 1]

Странные ощущения

« Стоп! Почему голос в моей голове такой громкий!? Я в комиксе!? »

На следующее утро Майлз стал испытывать странные ощущения. Он списывал все на пубертат. Свой собственный голос был очень громким в голове Майлза, и ему казалось, что он попал в комикс. Столкнувшаяся с ним в коридоре новенькая сразу заметила, что Майлз сильно потеет. Майлз всё отрицал, и воспользовался возможностью, чтобы познакомится с девушкой поближе. Получилось довольно неловко, да и новенькая отвечала немного невпопад. В конце концов, рука Майлза приклеилась к волосам девушки, так что ей пришлось их немного отстричь.

Проходя по коридору, Майлз заметил, что все на него смотрят и обсуждают происшествие. Потом еще на Майлза ополчился охранник. Юноша попробовал сбежать, но попал в кабинет охраны. Запаниковав, Майлз начал ко всему прилипать. В попытках отлепиться, он выпал в окно, и тут то липкость его и спасла. Майлз прополз по стене здания, увернулся от голубей, после чего вновь влез в окно. Там он наткнулся на комиксы о Человеке-пауке и понял, что его «симптомы» аналогичны тем, с которыми пришлось столкнуться Человеку-пауку в начале своей деятельности.[и 1]

Битва у коллайдера

« Я думал, я единственный. А ты такой же… Ты справишься, я помогу. »

— Питер Паркер Майлзу Моралесу.

Дядя Аарон не отвечал, и Майлз не знал, к кому обратиться со своей проблемой. Вернувшись в туннель, Майлз нашел паука. Затем он решил осмотреться, и тут паучье чутье посоветовало Майлзу уйти в сторону. Тут он стал свидетелем борьбы Человека-паука и Зеленого гоблина, намеревавшегося найти портал в другое измерение. Стараясь не попасться им под руку, Майлз пошел дальше, и чуть было не свалился в адронный коллайдер, но Человек-паук его спас. Герой сразу понял, что Майлз — такой же, как и он. Человек-паук пообещал помочь Майлзу помочь освоиться с его новыми суперсилами, после чего отправился разбираться с машиной, которая могла уничтожить их вселенную.

Человеку-пауку пришлось сражаться со злодеем Бродягой, и вновь с Зеленым гоблином. Он не успел остановить коллайдер, и произошел мощный взрыв. Майлз нашел Человека-паука под обломками, и тот передал ему свою флешку-ключ. Только с помощью нее можно было остановить коллайдер, и Человек-паук попросил Майлза помочь ему и все взорвать, дабы не дать Alchemax уничтожить вселенную.

Майлз согласился, но отойдя от Человека-паука на расстояние, увидел, как Уилсон Фиск его убил. Затем Майлзу пришлось бежать от злодея, которому Фиск приказал убить его, и благодаря новым способностям юноше это удалось.

Еле-еле Майлз добрался домой, где попросил у родителей остаться у них, а не в школе, где ему следовало находиться в будний день.[и 1]

Люди-пауки

Смерть Питера Паркер

« — В некотором смысле, мы тут все люди-пауки, и мы рассчитываем на вас.
— Рассчитывают на меня…		 »

— Мэри Джейн и Майлз Моралес.

В новостях объявили, что за личностью убитого Человека-паука скрывался обыкновенный аспирант Питер Паркер. Майлзу было грустно, и он отправился в магазин за костюмом паука. Продавец, Стэн, сказал, что они с покойным пауком дружили, и он будет по нему скучать. Майлз поинтересовался, сможет ли он вернуть костюм, если он ему не подойдет, но Стэн успокоил его, сказав, что рано или поздно костюм будет впору.

Переодевшись, Майлз посетил похороны Питера Паркера, где Мэри Джейн и Мэй Паркер произносили речи.

Так и не нашедший наставника Майлз попробовал учиться по комиксам, которые предлагали ему спрыгнуть с крыши высокого здания. Этого юноша испугался, так что выбрал здание пониже. Однако неудачно приземлившись, он сломал ключ-флешку.[и 1]

Еще один Питер Паркер

« Ребенок в костюме Человека-паука тащит труп бездомного за поясом. »

Расстроившись, Майлз пошел на кладбище, чтобы перед могилой Питера Паркера попросить у него прощения за провал миссии. Там он случайно наткнулся на еще одного человека в костюме паука, которого вырубил. Оказалось, что это другой Питер Паркер, судьба которого в некоторых деталях отличалась от первого. Тут нагрянула полиция, и Майлзу пришлось тащить незнакомца на себе, по ходу дела разбираясь, как пользоваться паутиной. Спустя некоторое время второй Питер Паркер пришел в себя, но затем ударился головой, и вновь вырубился.

Майлз принес второго Паркера в квартиру Аарона и привязал его к боксерской груше, после чего устроил «допрос». Майлз догадался, что этот Паркер из параллельной вселенной. Обрадовавшись, Майлз попросил Питера стать его наставником. Паркер от этой идеи был не в восторге и, будучи даже не совсем в форме, смог освободиться, после чего стал советовать Майлзу бросить супергеройство и вновь стать обычным парнем.

Майлз стал объяснять, что Кингпин опасен, и скоро он вновь запустит коллайдер. Паркера это заинтересовало — в момент включения он намеревался вернуться домой. Но нужен был ключ, а он был сломан. Паркер был готов вторгнуться в Alchemax, чтобы найти там недостающие детали, и уже собирался отправиться туда, как вид расстроившегося Майлза вызвал в нем чувство вины.[и 1]

Вторжение в Alchemax

« Я не могу сидеть сложа руки и смотреть, как умирает Человек-паук. Одного раза хватит. »

Майлз и Питер обсудили свои дальнейшие действия. Они направились в штаб-квартиру Alchemax. Майлз не терял надежды, что Паркер его чему-нибудь да научит, но Питер откладывал обучение на потом.

Паркер разработал план действий и направился в здание Alchemax, а Майлзу он велел наблюдать за ситуацией с расстояния, что юноше, естественно, не понравилось. А когда появился Кингпин, Моралеc и вовсе не выдержал. Он пробрался в штаб-квартиру и стал наблюдать за Фиском, пробираясь по вентиляции, где вскоре догнал Паркера. Они наблюдали, как Оливия Октавиус рассказывала Кингпину подробности злодейского плана.

Воспользовавшись моментом, Паркер решил пробраться к компьютеру и скачать оттуда необходимые данные. Майлз же долгое время не мог отлепиться от потолка, но благодаря совету Питера ему это все же удалось. После этого он продемонстрировал свою способность, которой не было у Паркера, — невидимость. Это изменило планы Паркера, он стал отвлекать Оливию, а Майлз должен был залезть в компьютер. Вскоре завязалась борьба, а Моралес просто украл комп. Они с Питером поспешили покинуть здание.

Паркер и Моралес попали в кафетерий компании, и теперь в погоню за ними бросились все остальные работники. Майлзу пришлось срочно учиться пользоваться паутиной, и поначалу у него не получалось. Однако после нескольких неудачных попыток Моралесу удалось передвигаться с помощью нее по деревьям, и очень быстро, хотя в ловкости он немного уступал Паркеру. Вдруг произошел очередной «глюк» (Оливия предупреждала Питера, что от слишком длительного пребывания в этой вселенной он может дезинтегрироваться), и Моралес с Паркером чуть было не выронили компьютер. Казалось, преимущество перешло на сторону Октавиус, но тут в битву вступила Женщина-паук. Она легко расправилась с Оливией, а потом сняла маску. Оказалось, что это Гвен, новенькая из школы Майлза.[и 1]

Еще пауки

« — А людей-пауков не многовато?
— Спроси на Комик-коне.		 »

— Майлз Моралес и Питер Паркер.

Гвен кратко рассказала историю своей жизни, включая то, как ее перетянуло в другую альтернативную вселенную.

Паркер, Моралес и Стейси направились обратно. По дороге, в автобусе, Майлз и Гвен немного поболтали. Затем они отправились к тете Мэй, которая сразу поняла, что представший перед ней Питер из другого измерения. Она отвела пауков в убежище своего Паркера, где можно было сделать новую флешку для выключения коллайдера.

Оказалось, что эти трое — не первые пауки, пришедшие к Мэй, и она познакомила их с еще тремя — нуар-версией, Пени Паркер с роботом и Свином-пауком. Все они попали в этот мир, подобно Паркеру, и все они хотели вернуться домой. Это можно было сделать через коллайдер, но кто-то должен был остаться, чтобы его отключить. Тут опять начались глюки, и Майлз сказал, что никому из других пауков оставаться нельзя, так как это для них опасно, и Майлз отключит коллайдер сам.

Паркер попытался поддержать юного друга, а вот остальные пауки набросились на Моралеса, ставя под сомнение его пригодность для столь сложной миссии. Пока другие его обсуждали, Майлз стал невидимым и ушел. [и 1]

Становление

Правда об Аароне

Майлз попробовал связаться с дядей Аароном, но его не было в городе. Не зная, куда ему податься, Моралес отправился к Аарону домой. Майлз писал записку, как вдруг увидел человека в костюме, Бродягу, того самого, который входил в банду Кингпина. Майлз надел маску и спрятался. Бродяга связался с Фиском по телефону, обещая найти мальчишку, после чего раскрыл свое лицо. Оказалось, что это дядя Аарон. Майлз побежал, Аарон бросился за ним, но догнать не смог.

Майлз вернулся в дом тети Мэй и рассказал паукам правду о своем дяде. Вскоре туда нагрянули прихвостни Кингпина, желавшие заполучить ключ от коллайдера. Началась борьба. Майлз изо всех сил пытался помогать, но опять не мог справиться со своей липучестью. Потом начались глюки, а ключ выронили, но Майлз успел его подобрать. Тут на него набросился Бродяга, которому удалось схватить юношу. Тогда Моралес снял маску паука, и Аарон увидел, кто под ней скрывается. Вреда племяннику он не причинил. Кингпин видел, что Бродяга бездействует, и выстрелил в него, а потом попытался попасть в Майлза. Вторым выстрелом Фиск промазал, так что Моралес схватил дядю и сбежал.

На безопасном расстоянии Майлз поговорил с дядей. Аарон извинился перед юношей, который так сильно его любил, и посоветовал ему не сдаваться и продолжать борьбу. Аарон умер, а офицер Джефферсон Дэвис увидел Человека-паука над мертвым телом. Майлз вновь сбежал, а Джефферсон понял, что убитый — это его брат.[и 1]

Прощание с командой

« Майлз, мы именно те, кто тебя точно понимает. »

Озлобленный Майлз вернулся в свою комнату в общежитии академии. Пауки пришли, чтобы поддержать его, но юноша никого не хотел видеть. Пауки уверили Майлза, что понимают его чувства, ведь все из них кого-то теряли. Потом появился сосед Майлза Ганке, и паучкам пришлось прятаться на потолке. Однако когда Ганке поднял голову, он увидел пауков и упал в обморок.

Гвен попрощалась с Моралесом, а Паркер объяснил, в чем дело. Все пауки собрались домой, в свои вселенные. Сам Питер хотел остаться в этом мире. Майлз хотел помочь и отомстить Кингпину, и он не желал слушать Паркера, который не соглашался пускать его на опасное задание. Затем Питер наглядно это продемонстрировал, напомнив Майлзу, что он не может контролировать свои способности и применять их по собственному желанию. Потом Питер связал Майлза паутиной и забрал у него флешку.

Пока Майлз был связанный и с заклеенным ртом, к нему пришел отец, чтобы поговорить и рассказать о смерти Аарона. К своему сожалению, Майлз ничего не смог ему ответить.[и 1]

Возвращение в команду

Моралес освободился от паутины, применил невидимость, чтобы остаться незамеченным для проснувшегося Ганке, а потом вернулся к дому тети Мэй, чтобы взять себе другой костюм. Затем Майлз спрыгнул вниз с небоскреба, окончательно убедившись, что умеет справляться с паутиной и готов стать настоящим Человеком-пауком.

В это время остальные пауки подготовили атаку на Кингпина в его пентхаусе, где как раз проходил вечер памяти Питера Паркера. Злодеи включили коллайдер, и пауки начали борьбу в попытках добраться до панели управления. Майлз, теперь уже отлично контролирующий свои способности и в новом костюме, также вступил в бой и помог расправиться с Доктором Осьминогом. Потом Моралес спас Гвен, а также стащил у Питера ключ, и взял коллайдер на себя.[и 1]

Битва с Кингпином

« Я люблю тебя и горжусь тобой. Я готов стать отцом! »

— Питер Паркер Майлзу Моралесу.

Коллайдер был включен на режим реверса, и паучки вернулись в свои собственные вселенные, тепло попрощавшись с Майлзом. Питер был последним, и до того, как он ушел, Кингпин решил принять участие в битве лично. Паркер был готов сразиться с ним, но Моралес ему не позволил, силой направив домой и уверив, что разберется со злодеем. Питер поверил в силы Майлза и похвалил его достижения.

Моралес ловко сражался с Фиском, но тому все же удалось взять верх, и он чуть было не убил Майлза. Однако искажения реальности, вызванные коллайдером, вернули жену и ребенка Кингпина, и Ванесса ужаснулась от того, что творит ее муж. Это отвлекло Фиска, и он выпустил Моралеса. Тот вновь попытался добраться до коллайдера, но Кингпин быстро пришел себя и возобновил атаки, теперь еще более агрессивные.

Фиск ударил Моралеса так же, как когда-то Паркера, но в отличие от своего предшественника, Майлз выдержал удар и смог подняться. Это произошло благодаря тому, что на месте битвы появился отец Майлза, который поддержал Человека-паука в сложный для него момент. Затем Моралес применил еще одну свою силу — электрический разряд, от которого Фиск отлетел и упал на кнопку, уничтожившую коллайдер. Искаженные реальности исчезли, мир вновь стал нормальным.[и 1]

Новый дружелюбный сосед

Майлз позвонил отцу, и они коротко поговорили про смерть Аарона и про то, что им стоит как-нибудь найти какую-нибудь стену и изрисовать ее.

После этого Моралес предстал перед отцом в костюме Человека-паука. Дэвис сказал, что в долгу перед героем, а тот просто его обнял и выразил надежду на дальнейшее сотрудничество. После этого Майлз показал офицеру связанного Кингпина, с запиской на груди: «От вашего дружелюбного соседа, Человека-паука».

Майлз стал сочетать деятельность Человека-паука и жизнь обычного школьника. Он написал свое сочинение, изрисовал вместе с папой стену, познакомился с соседом по комнате. В тяжелые моменты Моралес вспоминал друзей, остальных Людей-пауков.[и 1]

Характер и отношения с окружающими

Майлз Моралес — многообещающий подросток, который, тем не менее, всегда стремился быть просто обычным. С одной стороны, он умный, старательный и очень любит своих родителей. В семье довольно теплые отношения, и порой юноша стесняется своих родителей, когда те демонстрируют свои чувства на людях (впрочем, отец Майлза иногда действительно перегибает палку). Майлз увлекается музыкой и рисованием, а также комиксами. Его всегда восхищал герой Человек-паук.

С другой стороны, как и всякому юноше, Моралесу свойственно протестовать против окружающих обстоятельств. Это выражается в его увлечении граффити и расклейке по всему городу стикеров, в также в общении с дядей Аароном, чего отец мальчика не одобрял. Также Майлзу не понравилось, когда его перевели в другую школу, он считал постыдным учиться среди «элиты», да и по друзьям из старой школы скучал. Будучи способным учеником, Майлз стал относится к учебе несерьезно, и даже специально заваливал тесты, надеясь, что его исключат.

Майлз сообразительный, с чувством юмора и очень милый, но в общении с девчонками довольно неловок — с ними он не знает, как себя вести. Испытывая неловкость, Майлз склонен глупо шутить.

Моралес не был готов к обретению способностей, хотя смерть Человека-паука заставила его задумываться о своей роли в жизни города. Однако ему не доставало ни навыков в использовании новых сил, ни сильных волевых качеств. Наставник определенно помог бы юноше освоиться, но Питер Паркер погиб, не успев этого сделать, а другой Питер Паркер поначалу отказывался помогать. Так что Майлзу в основном приходилось разбираться со всем самостоятельно, хотя он получил помощь в лице других Людей-пауков и тети Мэй. Родители хоть и не знали о способностях Майлза, также оказали ему моральную поддержку.

Силы и способности

Майлз Моралес имеет те же силы, что и альтернативная версия этого персонажа из Ultimate вселенной.

Снаряжение

  • Костюм: Как и другие Люди-пауки, Майлз носит костюм, чтобы скрывать свою личность. Сначала он пользовался костюмом, купленным в обычном магазинчике атрибутики фанатов комиксов. Позже он взял себе более продвинутый костюм из убежища Питера Паркера и раскрасил его из балончика.
  • Веб-шутеры: Как и другие пауки, Майлз использует в качестве своего основного оружия паутину. Для более удобного управления ею, он использует веб-шутеры. Майлз также взял их из вещей Паркера, а тетя Мэй показала, как ими пользоваться.

Появления

Шамик Мур озвучил персонажа Майлза Моралеса в мультфильме «Человек-паук: Через вселенные». Прежде Майлз появился в сцене после титров фильма «Веном»

Биография персонажа Майлз Моралез — Человек-паук

После того как Норман Осборн был арестован ЩИТом и публично раскрыт, почти за два месяца до смерти Питера Паркера. В этот период, грабитель ворвался на заброшенную лабораторию Озборна. Один из радиоактивных пауков, заполз к грабителю в сумку.

Майлз Моралес, молодой парень из Бруклина. Одного дня, Майлз решил навестить своего дядю — Аарона Дэвиса (что было против воли его родителей). В квартире своего дяди Майлза укусил паук, который находился в сумке Аарона.

Майлз получил паучьи способности, такие как маскировка, повышенная ловкость, а так же возможность ползать по стенам. Майлз отреагировал отрицательно на полученные силы! Так как Моралес хотел быть обычным парнем, а весь героизм решил оставить Человеку-пауку.

Несколько месяцев спустя Человек-паук умирает, спасая свою семью от Осборна. Майлз опоздал на место происшествия. Потрясенный тем, что не помог Питеру Паркеру до его кончины, Майлз решил следовать идеи Питера Паркера!

С большой властью приходит большая ответственность

— и таким образом продолжить миссию Питера.

Майлз Моралес (англ. Miles Morales) — вымышленный персонаж, супергерой комиксов издательства Marvel Comics. Будучи подростком наполовину афроамериканского, наполовину латиноамериканского происхождения, Майлз стал вторым персонажем, известным под псевдонимом Человек-паук во вселенной Ultimate Marvel. Впервые после смерти Питера Паркера Майлз появился в качестве главного персонажа второго тома серии комиксов Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man в сентябре 2011 года[1]. Несмотря на то, что он будет фигурировать в комиксах, Майлз не появится в готовящемся сериале компании Disney XD о Человеке-пауке, основанном на комиксах Ultimate Spider-Man[2], однако его костюм доступен в видеоигре Spider-Man: Edge of Time[3].

История публикаций

Часть страницы выпуска Ultimate Fallout #4 (август 2011), первое появление Майлза Моралеса

Идея ввести в сюжет афроамериканского Человека-паука впервые появилась у создателей в 2008 году, за несколько недель до вступления в должность президента Соединённых Штатов Барака Обамы. Главный редактор Marvel Аксель Алонсо сказал: «Мы поняли, что стоим на пороге избрания первого афроамериканского президента в истории Америки, и мы знали, что это подходящее время пристальнее рассмотреть одного из наших главных персонажей»[4]. Шанс для нового Человека-паука предоставился с выходом сюжетной линии Ultimatum, после которой произошла частичная реструктуризация Ultimate-вселенной, но тогда эта идея была заброшена, так как история нового персонажа разработана не была[4]. Позже, Брайан Майкл Бендис рассказал, что его снова посетили мысли о персонаже после появления темнокожего актёра Дональда Гловера в пижаме Человека-паука в американском телесериале «Сообщество», что стало ссылкой на неудачную попытку Гловера получить роль Питера Паркера на кастинге фильма «Новый Человек-паук»[5].

Когда издательство приняло решение «убить» Питера Паркера в 2011 году в сюжетной линии «Death of Spider-Man», идея появления нового персонажа сформировалась в концепцию Майлза Моралеса[5]. Деталями разработки занимался Бендис в сотрудничестве с художником Сарой Пичелли[4][6]. В основной вселенной Marvel Питер Паркер по-прежнему жив и остаётся Человеком-пауком, а Моралес наденет костюм супергероя только в рамках альтернативной вселенной Ultimate Marvel[4]. Персонаж Моралеса дебютировал в выпуске Ultimate Fallout #4 в августе 2011 года. Начиная с сентября он будет фигурировать в качестве одного из главных персонажей в возобновлённой серии Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man, авторами которой станут Бендис вместе с Сарой Пичелли[5][7]. Пичелли также разработала дизайн нового костюма Человека-паука, который вместо красно-синего стал чёрным с красным логотипом в виде паука[8].

Хотя Майлз стал первым темнокожим Человеком-пауком, его костюм недолгое время уже носил персонаж мексиканского происхождения Мигель О’Хара в серии Spider-Man 2099[9].

В 2012 году вышла ограниченная серия Spider-Men, в которой Майлз Моралес встретился с Питером Паркером — Человеком-пауком из основной вселенной Marvel[10].

Вымышленная биография

Майлз Моралес родился и вырос в Бруклине, Нью-Йорк. Его отец — афроамериканец, а мать родом из Пуэрто-Рико. Аксель Алонсо назвал Майлза «интеллектуальным ботаником со склонностью к науке и похожим на своего предшественника»[4]. Майлз, как и Питер, был укушен суперпауком Оскорпа (но с другим номером) и первое время боялся своих способностей, желая от них избавиться. Единственным человеком, которому он рассказал о них, был его друг-азиат Ганке.

Однако затем, когда Питер умирает на руках Мэри Джейн Уотсон и Тёти Мэй, Майлз меняет решение. Он приходит на похороны Питера и выясняет у Гвен Стейси причины становления Питера на путь супергероя. Он решает продолжить дело Питера и надевает карнавальный костюм Человека-паука. В первую же ночь он спасает человека и затем развязывает бой с суперзлодеем Кенгуру[11]. Он побеждает, но его высмеивают газеты, а на следующую ночь его похищает Джессика Дрю и уносит в штаб-квартиру ЩИТа к Нику Фьюри. Он допрашивает Майлза о причинах его поступка и раскрывает ему, что его дядя Аарон, в квартире которого Майлза и укусил паук, имеет богатое криминальное прошлое. Майлз признаёт, что ему нужно набраться боевого опыта и получить костюм получше. Но затем появляется Электро и Майлз спасает всех агентов ЩИТа, отключив сознание Диллона своей способностью «Паучье жало». Ник Фьюри отпускает Майлза и даёт ему новый чёрный костюм с красным логотипом и красным же паутинным орнаментом[12]. Ганке говорит, что это ознаменует признание Майлза как «официального» нового Человека-паука. В выпуске Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man №14 Майлз получает от тети Мэй и Гвен Стейси пускатели паутины Питера Паркера. Таким образом, новый Человек-Паук окончательно заменил Питера Паркера — теперь у него есть все паучьи способности (также, в отличие от Питера Паркера, Майлз получил возможность становиться невидимым и наносить особый удар «Ядовитое касание»), костюм, признание Ника Фьюри, Капитана Америки, и пускатели паутины.[13]

Реакция

Люди, которые говорят, что это рекламный трюк, упускают главное. Майлз Моралес явлется отражением культуры, в которой мы живём. Мне нравится, что мой сын Тито увидит Человека-паука по фамилии Моралес, размахивающего паутиной в небе. И, судя по реакции, я в этом не одинок.

В апреле 2011 года, когда было впервые анонсировано, что Marvel готовит замену Питеру Паркеру, распространились слухи о том, что это может быть женщина или представитель этнических меньшинств. Личность Майлза Моралеса была раскрыта изданием USA Today 2 августа 2011 года, незадолго до того, как персонаж официально дебютировал в Ultimate Fallout #4[1][7]. Тема получила значительное освещение в СМИ и была неоднозначно воспринята читателями. Некоторые считали, что такой ход — одна из попыток Marvel добиться политкорректности[4][9], а по мнению других, любой Человек-паук сможет стать положительным примером для читателей, особенно детей[14]. Некоторые из читателей высказывали мнение, что введение темнокожего Человека-паука — рекламный трюк, в надежде привлечь больше читателей. Значительная часть поклонников Питера была разочарована смертью персонажа и отрицательно отнеслась к любой возможной замене[9]. Широкий общественный резонанс стал причиной, по которой издание The Washington Post выпустило статью, озаглавленную «Sorry, Peter Parker. The response to the black Spider-Man shows why we need one», где обозреватель Александра Петри высказала мнение, что этническая принадлежность героя менее важна, чем качество излагаемой истории[14].

Радиоведущий Лу Доббс выразил возмущение по поводу того, что оригинального Человека-паука заменили героем иной этнической принадлежности. Телеведущий и сатирик Джон Стюарт позже спародировал реакцию Доббса в телепередаче «The Daily Show», где отметил, что Майлз Моралес заменил Питера только в альтернативной вселенной, а в основной Питер Паркер здравствует и поныне[15]. Отрицательно к замене персонажа отнёсся и журналист Гленн Бек, мнение которого было раскритиковано комиком Стивеном Колбером, однако в отличие от Доббса, Бек самостоятельно отметил, что Майлз будет фигурировать не в основной вселенной[16]. Аксель Алонсо отрицает, что персонаж был введён из соображений политкорректности, так как и до Майлза во вселенной Marvel присутствовали персонажи разных рас, а несмотря на обилие отрицательных отзывов, есть аудитория, которая жаждет увидеть такого персонажа, как Майлз[4].

Вне комиксов

Видеоигры

  • Майлз появляется в игре Marvel Super Hero Squad Online, озвученный Антони Дел Рио.
