Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man Appreciation 2021

[Kevinroc]

Not who I would have figured for Jessica at all, unless they're doing a really different take on her.

I wonder if they can't use things like Hydra and the High Evolutionary.

I wonder if they can't use things like Hydra and the High Evolutionary.

...Probably not? I didn't think they could use Matt Murdock for Gwen without Marvel approval.

[Digifiend]

Maybe they're adapting Ultimate Jessica Drew instead of the 616 version, but she'll be Miles's clone instead of Peter's? That would explain why a black actress was cast.

[CosmiComic]

Here's some Spider-Verse 2 news for everyone, Jessica Drew has been confirmed and will be played by Issa Rae.

Champions isn't ending, it just got delayed for event reasons I believe.

Ok. Champions seems to be the most consistent younger team being published right now

I wonder how big of a role she'll have in ISV2

Idk if that would work. Wouldn't she have been around before he did?

[Digifiend]

No, she wouldn't. Think about it, in the comics, they couldn't have got the genetic material to create her until after Peter became Spider-Man. She's artificially aged up in the lab. Same goes for Selim and the other clones currently appearing in Miles's book.

In the first one they cast a black actress for MJ and she was still white. They could make Jess black, but her casting isn't a indication that they will.

It probably helps that two of the founding members are arguably the most popular new characters of the past decade.

Ok. Idk if they'll go in that direction though

Yeah, that helps a lot.

That isn't special to miles.Most heroes with powers would do heroic stuff.
It's about why they do it/motivation .
If it's not Peter and miles's mom make something else up.
Doesn't have to be a death.
I'm gonna leave this topic here.
Cheers

Its because its what he wants to do, thats literally it. He does it because thats what Miles Morales wants to do. He doesn't need some earth shattering reason to do good.

Yeah, why can't he be a hero because he believes in it?

Then have him say it.Self reflection has been a part of his current run via diary.
It doesn't have to be earth shattering.I'm not saying he needs someone's death or to be placed in his homeworld(although that would be better imo but agree to disagree) but motivations are a big part of a character.
Why does he want to do it?
Is it because of his upbringing?His admiration for spider-man?or anything else
Your reasoning is the one used by hickman on krakoa and it is disliked by many.
Giving us character motivation could take as long as multiple issues or as little as one single page but it makes the character so much more deep.
Just one of the many things they always did with Peter and the likes. which made them such good characters.
Again doesn't need to have the same motivations but they should be present.

[Spiderfan001]

Yeah, why can't he be a hero because he believes in it?

He can.But they should tell us why he believes in it.The hero job is difficult af and most people would quit.
It can be anything from his childhood to his idols but it should be addressed since his original motivations have been all but retconned.
I don't care what it is but it should be present.

Ok, but I think they can still do that in 616

[Spiderfan001]

Absolutely.Just said I feel Miles has and will work better in the 1610.
No reason they can't do it in the 616.
