A critical look at Miles Morales’s Spider-Man

Ytasha L. Womack examines the reimagining of Spider-Man through Miles Morales, introduced as an African American and Latinx hero. The book considers Miles’s coming-of-age story: a teenager navigating new powers, a desire to help others, and the competing demands of school and superhero responsibilities. Those personal pressures connect to the larger stakes of his choices, including the survival of the world. Part of the Marvel Age of Comics series, the volume pairs its discussion of the character with full-color art, placing Miles’s story within the changing legacy of a long-established superhero.

  • Readers interested in literary criticism of comics and graphic novels.
  • Readers exploring Miles Morales’s place in the Spider-Man legacy.

Book overview

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.
