Explore the Stories Behind the Legends

First introduced in 2011 by Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli, Miles Morales reconceived Spider-Man as African American and Latinx, and his debut marked a new direction in the saga of a beloved character.

Miles Morales as Spider-Man is a coming-of-age tale of a smart, affable teen coming into his power. From his reluctance to becoming a super hero to his desire to help others, to the rocky balance between his school life and super hero responsibilities, Miles is always at the precipice of making tough decisions—choices whose consequences are as weighted in his personal life as they often are for the survival of the world.

Illustrated with full-color art, Ytasha L. Womack’s entry in the Marvel Age of Comics looks at the hugely successful reimagining of one of the most popular super hero characters of all time.

Critic reviews

Womack goes beyond mere character study and explores the significance of having an Afro-Latino teenager portray a legacy character. Delving into everything from the significance of Miles being from Brooklyn to his connections to the trickster god Ananse, Womack presents a critical deep dive into how Miles is more than just another alternate universe Spider-Man.
More than just a book about the fan-favorite Spider-man character, but a thoughtful exploration of of how Miles Morales reshaped Marvel Comics and brought in a whole new generation of comic readers. . . . Womack brings passion and insight to this book and continues to push this series forward.
