Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1 (2011)
miles morales
マイルス・モラレス マイルズ・モラレス MilesMorales
One of many alternative versions of the iconic superhero Spider-Man.
Most versions of Miles depict him as an African-American teen boy with either a faded buzz cut or dreadlocks. He wears a variation of the iconic Spider-Man suit with a black base and red outlines instead of red and blue.
He debuted in the Ultimate Spider-Man universe in the wake of the original's untimely death, struggling to live up to Peter Parker's legacy, the responsibilities, and isolation that come with his newfound powers.
He was created in the early 2010s, notable for being the first (widely recognized) Spider-Man of African and Latino ancestry. While others, such as Spider-Punk and Spider-Man 2099, existed, Miles was created near the end of President Barack Obama's first term, in part because of what Obama represented to his supporters as the first black president of the United States. This allowed Marvel to push him into the attention of their most dedicated fans.
Marvel was soon able to make him a household name with his appearances in the Insomniac Games' Spider-Man games, Sony Picture Animation's Into The Spider-Verse, and numerous children's cartoons in the late 2010s.
