SPIDER-MAN: Marvel Comics Unveils Miles Morales' New Costume...And It's Made From Vibranium!

Marvel has revealed Miles Morales' new Spider-Man suit and this eye-catching design has an interesting link to Wakanda. Why? It's made from Vibranium! Take a first look at Miles Morales: Spider-Man here...

Miles Morales was first introduced in the Ultimate Universe following the death of Peter Parker. A few years later, he crossed paths with Earth-616's Spider-Man and the two later reunited during Secret Wars

That event ended with the Ultimate Universe's destruction and the creation of a new world which made it so that Miles' home had always been Earth-616. Since then, he's been front and centre in the Marvel Universe, sharing the "Spider-Man" moniker with Peter. 

The character has donned a few different suits since then and is getting another this November. 

This one is made of Vibranium and should make Miles even more formidable; as for what leads to him getting this costume, that's a story which will play out in the pages of the Miles Morales: Spider-Man series by writer Cody Ziglar and artist Federico Vicentini. 

"Federico is simply the best!" Ziglar, who also wrote episodes of Marvel Studios' She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, recently said. "His work is so kinetic and dynamic!"

"We had a conversation early on where I asked him what he'd be most excited to draw, and he said he draws a lot of inspiration from animated superhero shows, which I think shows in his style. So any excuse to have him channel that is a dream come true for me."

Tom Holland has shared an interest in bringing Miles to the big screen for several years now and rumour has it the plan is for these two to team up before the younger web-slinger becomes Peter's permanent replacement.

Whether Marvel Studios will follow the comics by killing Spidey remains to be seen, though we'd like to think he'd get a happy ending after Spider-Man: No Way Home. We've previously heard rumblings that Miles might live in the same apartment building as Peter; the character was also referenced in a Spider-Man: Homecoming deleted scene featuring Donald Glover's Aaron Davis. 

While Holland's wall-crawler is expected to take on a lead role in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, it could be that the next trilogy will see Peter pass the Spider-Man mantle to Miles. That may seem premature, but if we bid farewell to Holland in Spider-Man 6, for example, then he'll have had a good - and lengthy - run as the hero. 

Check out Miles' new suit in the X post below.

@ProfessorWhy - yeah I know this isn't Peter, but that's more to the point.... there's only one Spiderman

@ProfessorWhy - Peter is Spider-Man. Miles is Spider-Man. Ben Reilly was Spider-Man. Miguel O’Hara is Spider-Man. Otto Octavius was Spider-Man. Hobie Brown is Spider-Man. There’s so many other Spider-Men that aren’t Peter, whether it’s 616 or not.

And just about every superhero has had others take up the mantle at some point or another, or shares multiples.

Why this still is a conversation when it comes to Miles and Sam Wilson and even as recently as the new Ultimate version of Felicia…doesn’t take rocket science to see as to why they’re not “accepted.”

Miles is a breakthrough character in comics, has had highly successful films and video games, and has new generations growing up with him. He IS Spider-Man, and will forever be a Spider-Man.

@DTor91 - nah. F spider Island. F the magical, cosmic, cloned, whatever it is. Villains donning the suit for malicious intent is acceptable.

@DTor91 - You are aware that Miles was created because Marvel was afraid of the Ditco estate taking the rights to Peter away. Superman's creators heirs ( Siegel's) sue'd DC and Marvel was scared to death. Awaiting the outcome of that trial they created Miles. So he is literally a corporately created copy who's race was changed because lawyers told Marvel to. Peter IS Spider-man.

@ProfessorWhy - Trouble is the way the market works comic store owners wouldn't purchase many, if any, arachnid boy comics (doubly so in some cases if not white being real) as a bigger risks they won't be able to sell them if it wasn't titled Spider-Man. The comic store owners WILL always buy a lot of Spider-man comics even if a legacy/alt character...

...in time a new legacy character or alternate universe version that isn't JUST as same RL name variant can gain their own hero title and feel they almost always should especialy when the original returns as they always do.

I get the issue folks have with it but from a practical pov it is always going to be a thing and can help keep the original going by keeping their title in print with fresh new ideas using a legacy which can then inspire better stories for the original when they return.

Any character will tend to get stale over time without a break to realy look at what wasn't working any longer, what still was and what could be added to make them more relevant and appealing to new generations.

I will add however some character are always in built legacy titles, like Black Panther or Iron Fist who were introduced as the new holders of those roles after generations of others (even if non named at first let alone seen in print). So I tend to think there is never much merit to any POV saying there is only one of those and dismissing all prior and future characters with those types of titles even if the first in print will tend to be more popular and always return.

@DTor91 @Apophis71 - Except that mantle swap characters almost always sell way less, (it's very rare when one even breaks the top 25). And for comic book retailers there are restrictive ordering practices that force them to buy books they don't want/can't sell, they have to order a minimum number of comic A say 500, but know they can only sell 300, these unsellable books are unreturnable. So the reason why it's still a conversation and certain characters aren't "accepted" is that people aren't putting their money where their mouth is and going out and supporting their books. Sam Wilson has already had 2 series cancelled at this point and Miles has never outsold a Peter book.

@soberchimera - Maybe so but when an original character not a legacy they sell even less and legacies tend not to be around for long before the original returns so...

...the way the market is setup doesn't work well, hasn't for a long time and still trying to find ways to make it work better. In the case of Miles and Ms. Marvel there was a choice made to primarily push them on the digital side, less so with hard copy which is why they have gained a lot of percieved popularity whilst it is not necessarily being reflected as such in print comic sales.

The point remains that legacy characters have an important purpose even if short term place holders regardless of sales figures and do feel they always (when they do gain some traction) go on to earn their own unique hero name after a relatively short time with the legacy one.

@Apophis71 - It’s basically the New Coke method, take away the Classic Coke that everyone likes, replace it with a coke that’s not as popular, bring back the coke everyone loves, sell more of that Classic Coke, rinse, repeat.

There are elements of the design I like but overall I'm not keen, definitely prefer Miles' classic black and red suit

Miles is just a cheap copy with no own villains. There is only one Spider-Man.

The OG Ultimate Universe idea of Miles being Spider-Man meant something.

The Marketing Department bringing him into the 616 cheapened the whole thing.

Was a great character. Now is just a sales gimmick.

Doc Ock as Superior Spider-Man was WAY better than it deserved to be. Once. When it was unique.

I [frick]ing hate that comics are a [frick]ing afterthought now and the vast majority of them suck giant balls.

they could give him adamantium claws at this point and he'd still be Miles Morales

Vibranium? How did he get the hookup from the Wakandans?

Also, how long before they add this suit to the PS5 Spider-Man 2 game?

@clintthahamster - it's so tired out. Miles has been around for over ten years already, and his stories were great. It's just recently people have been on this "hate all characters that aren't straight white men" bandwagon and are trying today he was made for "woke" reasons.
