Fri, 30 Jun 2023 21:00:15 GMT en-US hourly 60 Ever since his comic book debuted in the 2010s, Miles Morales has become one of Marvel's most important and popular heroes. This has only increased with the success of the animated Spider-Verse movies from Sony, which put Miles in the center of a multiversal storyline. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse notably ended on a cliffhanger featuring a villainous version of the "ultimate" Spider-Man, though this is not the first time the concept has been used.

]]> Fri, 30 Jun 2023 21:00:15 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-across-the-spider-verse-miles-morales-evil-marvel/ Marvel Comics' multiverse has brought about some weird and wonderful characters over the years, and no hero is immune to alternate-reality versions of themselves popping up. The most prominent of which seems to be Spider-Man, who has more variants than the average fan can count.

]]> Mon, 26 Jun 2023 12:30:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-variants-different-powers-peter-parker/ Ultimate Invasion has arrived, and with it the Ultimate Marvel Universe is officially back in action. Or rather, a version of it is, albeit one that only resembles its predecessor on a surface level as of now. In fact, the Ultimate Universe as it stands today might not be the one fans know best in any of the ways that matter, and that could very well be enough for it to deserve a proper comeback.

]]> Thu, 22 Jun 2023 17:50:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/ultimate-universe-return-necessary-marvel/ Blue Beetle, a.k.a. Jaime Reyes is the next somewhat "unknown" DC character to get a movie of his own, but he's not a new hero. Debuting in the mid-2000s, the third Blue Beetle has been one of DC Comics' premiere young characters, and easily one of the most popular legacy characters. In this way, Jaime's very much similar to a fellow "bug superhero" from rival publisher Marvel Comics.

]]> Thu, 22 Jun 2023 11:15:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/blue-beetle-beat-miles-morales/ The symbiote known as Carnage has been most commonly associated with the serial killer Cletus Kasady. The combination of these two forces has led to heinous acts of brutality and destruction across the Marvel Universe. Carnage could bond with a new host and the murderer known as The Artist was one such candidate in the comics.

]]> Mon, 19 Jun 2023 15:40:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/carnage-symbiote-best-marvel-characters-cletus-kasady-replacements/ Miles Morales is moving into the much-deserved spotlight after big-screen success and increasing comic book popularity.

But the movie also hides plenty of references to the comics in plain sight. It's a love letter to the Spider-Man source material and relies on some truly deep cuts that only hardcore fans might recognize.

]]> Sat, 17 Jun 2023 15:40:15 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spiderman-across-spider-verse-best-obscure-marvel-comics-references/ Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse features plenty of very important realities that are both integral to the movie and to the wider multiverse itself. With Sony Pictures Animation paying homage to comics, movies, TV shows, and video games, every universe had the potential to appear.

Miguel O'Hara brought them together to combat anomalies that threaten the multiverse. However, the reveal that the first anomaly is Miles Morales himself feels like a meta-commentary on what led to the creation of the first Black Spider-Man. The notion that he doesn't deserve his power or belong in the mask is one that still persists amongst the most close-minded fans.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 10:01:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/across-the-spider-verse-black-spider-man-meta-commentary/ The release of 2023’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has continued to highlight the power and popularity of the youthful Spider-Man, Miles Morales. While he wasn’t the first to call himself Spider-Man, he has shown Peter Parker time and again that he has what it takes to successfully carry on the web-slinger’s legacy.

]]> Sun, 11 Jun 2023 15:30:15 GMT https://www.cbr.com/most-powerful-spiderman-not-peter-parker/ Most Spider-Man games focus on Peter Parker's adventures, but he's not the only Spider-Man in Marvel Comics. Starring in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Miles Morales has made a name for himself and become a fan favorite. Miles' popularity has led him to appear in several Marvel videos games, including the upcoming Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

Soul Calibur has featured Star Wars characters, and Mortal Kombat has had surprise guests ranging from Robocop to the Joker.

Filling the shoes of Marvel’s most iconic hero, Spider-Man, is an unenviable task for anybody. Miles was young and inexperienced, and unlike Peter, had to live up to a name that already had a beloved legacy.

]]> Sat, 27 May 2023 23:15:12 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spiderman-miles-morales-strangest-events-marvel-comics/ Miles Morales is one of the most interesting characters in Spider-Man comics.

After all, his timely intervention in Secret Wars helped ensure that the multiverse would continue to exist in the first place.

]]> Sat, 06 May 2023 19:00:15 GMT https://www.cbr.com/miles-morales-bring-back-ultimate-universe-invasion-fcbd/ The symbiotes have seen an impressive amount of growth over the last few years at Marvel. Prominent runs on Venom and a massive line-wide event in King in Black radically shifted what's possible for the symbiote corner of the Marvel Universe. Recently, Cletus Kasady -- aka Carnage -- rejected the Carnage symbiote. His soul now inhabits the Extrembiote, a monstrosity that is part Stark Tech and part symbiote dragon. Cletus has long been the most heinous killer in the Marvel Universe, and this new union has made him more powerful and dangerous than ever. Carnage Reigns Alpha #1 -- written by Alex Paknadel, Cody Ziglar, David Pepose, and Cheryl Lynn Eaton, with art by Julius Ohta, Travel Foreman, Paris Alleyne, and Will Robson, colors by Erick Arciniega, Dee Cunniffe, Andrew Dalhouse, and Chris Sotomayor, and letters by Cory Petit -- is an intense oversized start to a chaotic event.

]]> Wed, 03 May 2023 21:06:50 GMT https://www.cbr.com/carnage-reigns-alpha-review/ Marvel has never shied away from taking short-term risks, but in the long run, the Marvel Universe always reverts to the status quo. Regardless, many of the company's greatest comics have briefly played within that sandbox with huge ambition. Just because a comic series starts out great, doesn't mean it stays that way.

However, his new series demonstrates that his life is not great all the time.

It doesn't matter how much he hurts, how tired he is, or how much the odds are against him because his responsibility is to save people. But he's about to have a night that tests his convictions and his limits when he comes face-to-face with one of Marvel's vilest villains, Cletus Kasady, AKA the symbiote-enhanced serial killer known as Carnage, who is more powerful than ever.

]]> Fri, 14 Apr 2023 16:20:22 GMT https://www.cbr.com/carnage-reigns-cody-ziglar-alex-paknadel-interview/ Marvel has its share of icons, but one great thing is that there's always room at the top. For years, characters who weren't exactly A-listers got a chance at the big leagues, proving they had what it took to join the ranks of the greatest heroes on Earth. They grew beyond their original station and showed that there was more to them than met the eye.

Stories like Spider-Verse, Spider-Geddon, and the current Spider-Man series have been rooted in that scope, forcing heroes like Peter Parker and Miles Morales to take on multiversal threats. But as one of them formally steps away from those missions, it might be the ideal way to highlight the other.

]]> Wed, 08 Mar 2023 18:00:00 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spiderman-friends-turned-villains/ The Avengers rosters have been rife with romances and the drama that often follows. Many team members have dated each other in addition to various members of other super-teams like the X-Men and Guardians of the Galaxy. With all of these relationships, some think that there are no more pairs left to explore.

]]> Mon, 06 Mar 2023 20:10:24 GMT https://www.cbr.com/avengers-comics-most-anticipated-romances/ Peter Parker recently added a few new weapons and gadgets to his arsenal as Spider-Man.

For the last two decades, Marvel's animated shows have been predominantly about the Avengers, Spider-Man, and X-Men when they could have been so much more.

]]> Sun, 05 Mar 2023 18:51:13 GMT https://www.cbr.com/marvel-characters-who-need-animated-series/ Marvel's Ultimate Universe was one of its biggest publishing success stories, and it helped define the company for much of the 2000s.

In just a few years, these newcomers quickly overshadowed the current roster, or they took a life of their own. Those who accomplished the latter quickly became important trailblazers.

The first five years of the decade were defined by a new crop of superstar writers coming up, but by 2015, they'd all be gone. The Spider-Man and X-Men books fell even further from grace, and the Avengers books dropped like stones after Jonathan Hickman left the publisher.

]]> Tue, 07 Feb 2023 14:15:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/marvel-best-2010s-comics/ Few superheroes can claim to be as cool as everyone's favorite friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Since he was created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko in 1962's Amazing Fantasy #15, Spidey has defined "cool" in a number of ways in the pages of Marvel Comics and beyond.

]]> Sun, 05 Feb 2023 20:45:15 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-coolest-powers/ Miles Morales may not have the same powers, experience, or as deep a history as his fellow Web-Slingers, but that hasn't kept him from developing a rogues' gallery all his own. Of course, with fewer chapters of his life to pull from, his cast of villains is lesser-known and constantly growing. As a result, fans are not surprised whenever a new nemesis reared their head to torment the younger Spider-Man. Although in the case of his latest foe, her obsession with him stands out as genuinely shocking.

]]> Thu, 26 Jan 2023 20:15:12 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-across-the-spider-verse-poster-teased-characters/ Before the release of Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, Miles Morales was an unknown commodity to the general Marvel fans, although the comic-book reading fans knew a lot about him. His recent introduction in 2011 meant he hadn't yet racked up as many supervillains as his predecessor.

]]> Sat, 21 Jan 2023 23:00:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-miles-morales-villains-ranked/ Marvel fans adore Miles Morales because he is distinct from Peter Parker. They may share the codename of Spider-Man, but each brings something unique to the table. There is even a lot of debate that Miles brings more, as he has abilities that not even the original Spider-Man possesses. However, there are apparently some downsides to this.

]]> Mon, 16 Jan 2023 23:00:14 GMT https://www.cbr.com/miles-morales-spider-sense-weakness-spider-man-marvel/ Peter Parker's strange behavior over the last few months has been a puzzle for fans, but it seems that his bad luck has transferred over to Miles Morales. Or at least, Peter's distant behavior is now being mimicked by Miles. Miles Morales: Spider-Man #2 (by Cody Ziglar, Federico Vicentini, Bryan Valenza, VC's Cory Petit) saw the titular character being confronted by Starling, who criticized him for acting selfishly. While Miles acknowledged that this was true, he still seems determined to put some space between himself and his loved ones.

That is made abundantly clear in Miles Morales: Spider-Man #2, written by Cody Ziglar, with art by Federico Vicentini, colors by Bryan Valenza, and letters by Cory Petit. This issue is classic Spider-Man all the way around, with a script full of humor and human drama. Miles spends the issue wrestling with the consequences of being Spider-Man in his personal life and relationships. It's a classic Spidey formula with a modern twist thanks to Ziglar's authentic writing and the electric art from Vicentini and Valenza.

]]> Wed, 11 Jan 2023 21:13:20 GMT https://www.cbr.com/marvel-miles-morales-spider-man-2-review/ While it took time for some fans to acclimatize to Miles Morales as a Spider-Man, it's safe to say he's definitely earned his keep. It's why Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is pivoting on the teen once more, and why stories such as Savage Avengers reiterated that Miles (a Deathlok-hybrid in that narrative) is arguably a better Spider-Man than Peter Parker. That's no insult to Peter as he's been a paragon of virtue, but Miles definitely has an extra edge leading the next generation of heroes such as the Champions.

]]> Wed, 04 Jan 2023 00:00:13 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-miles-morales-john-wick-chase-marvel/ Many of Marvel’s heroes have taken on multiple identities throughout their superhero careers.

That said, no matter how it's presented, no medium has stranger holiday stories than comic books. Whether Santa is a Mutant or Shadowcat has to protect her home from an alien, it's expected that Christmas issues of comics will contain the unexpected.

]]> Sun, 18 Dec 2022 00:00:13 GMT https://www.cbr.com/spider-man-miles-morales-galactus-christmas-marvel/ Creating a name and costumed identity shouldn't be too difficult for a hero. Once they get a handle on their powers, they can just derive their name from what they can do. Peter Parker gets spider-powers and becomes Spider-Man. Tony Stark designs a suit of power armor and becomes Iron Man. When other elements come into play, things get complicated.

Miles recently won a lottery that afforded him the opportunity to attend Brooklyn Visions Academy, however, his good fortune is coming at a price.

To this end, she has infected some of the greatest heroes the Marvel Universe has ever known. Even though Miles Morales is one of them, he isn't letting that stop him from embarking on the most harrowing adventure of all time.

The most famous example of this is the Death of Superman, a storyline that killed the world's most famous superhero, only for him to return a relatively short time later. However, some superhero deaths outlast their shelf-life, which is why 1985's Crisis on Infinite Earths (by Marv Wolfman and George Perez) is such a monumental achievement.
