Comic Miles Morales & more

I’ll be posting about Mostly Miles, along with any other comic I’m currently reading. (I don’t post game or spider-verse Miles, I feel there’s enough of that)

I LOVE MILES SO MUCH 😭 😭 ❤️ 😭

I hope Miles sings the same song in Spider Verse 2 but he actually knows the lyrics this time.

To everyone saying “You can praise Across the Spiderverse without trashing MCU Spiderman!”, maybe if the MCU didn’t steal so much of Miles’s story for their Spiderman and if they didn’t make Peter a class traitor and totally okay with billionaires, we wouldn’t be trashing them so much.

It's so embarrassing for mcu Spider-Man to exist when everyone already saw spider-verse

the more i think about mcu spider-man the more i don’t like mcu spider-man

like mcu twink peter will never have the depth of our friendly neighborhood spider-man. literally any time they try and make spider-man super cool with access to a ton of sick tech and everything i start to really lose interest. the appeal of spider-man to me is that he’s like just some guy who happens to have super powers. like you could just hang out with this dude. the “bigger” they make him the more he loses that.

actually i’m gonna elaborate on this further because spider-verse did this but they did it well and with purpose.

the peter from miles’ dimension was super over the top, kinda larger than life. as pointed out by peter b. several times. however unlike other times they’ve done this it wasn’t just to try and make spider-man look cool, it was all a part of miles’ narrative. miles was given huge shoes to fill and they used this as a tool to portray how small miles felt compared to peter.

but the difference between miles and mcu peter is that miles didn’t need any of that to become the spider-man he is today. one of his main role models in the film is peter b. who’s broke and off his game, but still manages to do amazing things.

that’s the appeal of spider-man. is that anyone can make a difference, no matter where you’re at in your life you can still be incredible.

Good comment via the person I reblogged from.

I think it’s interesting that the scene from the end of The Amazing Spider-Man with the eggs is being put forward as the pinnacle of Spider-Man cinema – and I agree, for the record – because I don’t think people know how hard that scene got dragged when Homecoming was released. I’m fairly sure one of Homecoming’s six screenwriters said something negative about it, although I can’t currently find the article where I saw it, but if you check out this review of Spider-Man Homecoming you’ll see something along the same lines: “No one wants to watch May chide Peter for forgetting the eggs when there’s way more interesting superhero stuff to get to.”

Right, except I do, because the eggs in The Amazing Spider-Man were always there to remind the audience that Peter’s great responsibility exists outside of his identity as Spider-Man as well as within it – he has a responsibility to his aunt! Even over something as simple as bringing home the eggs he’d previously forgotten to get! It’s meaningful because it shows us that responsibility is a multi-layered, multifaceted aspect of both Peter Parker and Spider-Man and something that is baked into the character, not just the costume. That he shows up beaten to hell, having played a large part in keeping New York from becoming lizard people, with his girlfriend’s father’s blood probably still on him, and that he pulls the world’s most busted package of like 100% broken eggs out of his backpack because he promised his aunt he would pick up eggs and that she embraces him is so important! And it got mercilessly dragged as not being exciting or cool enough! Not being enough of a superhero scene! TASM’s Aunt May of the absolutely incredible “You’re my boy and I won’t hurt you” scene got called dowdy and not fun and pathetic because she was “just waiting at home for the eggs”! And it drove me absolutely crazy! Justice for Peter treating May like she’s his mom and the most important person in the world to him and knowing he has a responsibility to her! Justice for the little humanizing elements that make Spider-Man ultimately a relatable story! Justice for the eggs scene!

One of the larger than life things that MCU Spider-Man badly remade is Peter’s identity getting revealed.

This was one of the best scenes in the movie’s franchise history:

Peter passes out after stopping the train and saving everyone in it, and gets carried by the passengers inside.

The juxtaposition of the superhero being saved by the people he almost died to help and repaying his kindness with a promise that his secret is safe. That’s the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man the MCU could never conceive.

i love how kamala khan can shapeshift into other people like i just think about that scene in adventure time when finn and jake were in marceline’s house without her permission and when she found them they tried to disguise themselves but jake turned himself into finn… kamala would do that

OK this was too funny not to draw actually:

Miles Morales: into the spiderverse became popular and has universal acclaim so Marvel instead of coming up with fresh ideas for their Tom Holland!Spiderman, they just piggybacked off Miles' story...again. like a multiverse of spider people was going to be Miles' brand...leave the guy something!

[zams-oasis]

Has Miles Morales met Daredevil? Because that has the potential to be hilarious.

Miles wasn't expecting someone to sense (practically see) him while he was invisible.

Daredevil wasn't expecting the tazer hands.

Miles!!
