I mean to keep it simple it's cause he is created first therefore he matter the most. Cause I remember reading the event and was wondering what reason they will give to make Peter the leader of the alternate spider man instead of doc ock. And the reason they gave is cause he beat Morlun already and nothing else. I wanted something a little more special
"He's pure power and doesn't even know it. He's the best of us."-Matt Murdock
"I need a reason to take the mask off."-Peter Parker
"My heart half-breaks at how easy it is to lie to him. It breaks all the way when he believes me without question." Felicia Hardy
Funny enough, Spider Wars in the 90s TAS did a better job of explaining Peter's role as the leader of the alternate Spider-Men, insofar as his inner struggles throughout the series enabled him to make a connection with the final enemy of the series --- literally himself, just with even more tragedy heaped upon him to the point of going insane and trying to annihilate reality itself out of spite --- and help stop his rampage. Given that this thread is about Miles, though, I'd say Into the Spider-Verse combining Spider-Verse with Spider-Men and Miles's origin did a great job as well, if not even better, and what links it with Spider Wars is that both use the Multiverse as a mechanism to explore the emotional journey and character growth of their respective main Spider-Men.
The spider is always on the hunt.
Not to mention with Spider-Geddon, while Pete handled Morlun(once again) it was the combined efforts of Miles and Otto that put a more prompt end to the Inheritors, with the exception of as you can imagine, Morlun lol.
I think the main difference is that Peter's story is one of guilt,resposibility,etc. whereas Miles's story is about legacy.That is why miles doesn't work in the 616.His story is about living up to the guy who he could have saved but didn't.Not to say that he can't be part of crossovers,because he should be.But being in the 616 ruins him for me
That story was a mess.I know its canon.The entire bride and Kaine and the baby with the weaver was weird.Also Jesssica being part of the web makes no sense.Otto's plan with the cloning wasn't a satisfying one and Miles getting the enigma force didn't feel earned(not saying he should not have got it, just maybe later in his timeline or have him earn it rather than make it a taunt).Although the Fight between morlun and Peter and the ending with Spider-gwen in Spectacular Spider-man is *Chef's kiss*.Perfect depiction of Peter.
A few pages from the graphic novel coming out next month
