Miles Morales: Spider-Man #2

Miles Morales: Spider-Man #2 is extremely fun. It is possibly the best teen or young superhero comic within the big two right now, filled with emotional gravity and a tremendously exciting storyline. Miles has a supporting cast to challenge him and enemies that are a huge test. The art is awesome and the guest star is a great example of what could be expected in further issues. Read Full Review

'Miles Morales: Spider-Man' beautifully threads the needle of creating a very classic Spider-Man-type situation but in a modern way befitting the young biracial Spider-Man of Brooklyn and the issues he has to face. Miles deserves every bit of the same spotlight, maybe even more, that Peter has enjoyed for decades and this series catapults him back to his rightful place in the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review

Miles and his supporting cast are more compelling than ever thanks to the efforts of Ziglar and Vicentini. Read Full Review

Vicentini delivers some blistering action throughout the issue. There are some great visual moments with the characters themselves, but the initial Miles/Misty confrontation, the Scorpion fight and the Tiana confrontation are visually stunning. Read Full Review

I miss the new costume and certain elements of the art aren't to my liking, but it's got a lot of potential. Read Full Review

Something good is happening here. With this second issue, this new series of Miles looks like it will achieve something really nice. With this issue, I made sure this was the team we really needed for Miles. Not much has happened yet in this first arc but I like giving Miles more of his own rogues as a young hero. Can't wait to see what Zigler has planned for the series. Vicentini's pencil style is kinetic and dynamic that we can really feel the moves of Miles Morales: Spider-Man. Miles is having difficulty processing just how difficult and frankly bizarre being a superhero can be and Misty Knight enters the story at this very moment. But I'm actually not a fan of the way this 'mentorship' thing is going with Misty, it's making Miles loo k like an amateur. I don't really get the point this mentorship with Misty. But Miles’ conversation with Misty Knight in the middle of the issue was considered and poignant. I could say this mentorhip thing won me right there. Maybe we can wrap this thing up by calling it team-up. I really love this black and red costume by Morales. In the previous series, they made a weird pinky costume just to make a difference. I hope they will not use that pinky costume in the series. It took its place among the ugly costumes I've seen in comics. But I must say Bryan Valenza also charm with his colors in this issue again. I really loved the color tones. Keep it up Bryan. I can understand his problems with his girlfriend Tiana, but frankly, I also think that Tiana is not the right girlfriend for Miles, and I'm pretty sure of it. I don't think good stories come out of this couple. For some reason it feels like Gwen or Kamala would be a better choice. It sounds like there would be better stories if Miles' girlfriend be a superhero. But that person is definitely not Tiana. I understand Miles is worried about his friends, but Ganke must have a life of his own. Ganke is a little too sticky, so Ganke should give Miles some slack. I think Miles should spend more time with his family in this series. I understand what Ziglar is trying to do, but he needs to change his perspective a bit or he'll fall into repetition. But it was still quite enough as the second issue and I think next stories of this series of Miles will be better. At this point, we, the readers, should leave some space and time to Zyglar. I continue to enjoy the mystery in this arc. Ziglar does a good job of balancing the interpersonal drama with humor along with some great moments between Miles and Misty, but except for the mentor situation. There is a fun and fast pace to the story and I like the immediacy of the action within it. I look forward to seeing what happens next and how close this new villain will get to the people Miles loves. That's all I could tell without giving too many spoilers. After conveying my warnings and thoughts about the second issue, I still can say that I love the issue. Now go to your local comic shop and get Miles Morales: Spider-Man #2. You will add a quality comic book to your collection. Excelsior! more

I feel very similarly to how I felt with Issue 1. Vicentini's art is great and Ziglar's writing is pretty good. I think Ziglar has found a nice, authentic voice for Miles that really fits him well. Plus, the story continues to be interesting. I thought his team-up with Misty Knight was fun, and I hope the relationship between the two continues to develop as time goes on.

This is shaping up to be a solid run.

It's fast and frantic, like the art. And that's a good thing--again, just like the art. The plot is developing nicely and the same could be said for the main antagonist. The surprise guest star is cool. The missing piece I'm wishing for is a little more depth in the characterization and relationships. Miles's angst and the problems that cause it feel a little thin, as does the advice he receives. There's nothing *wrong* with it, it's just stuff we've heard a million times before.

I had some fun with it. It had some emotion, had some action and some good srt. Just felt like it could carry more weight.
