An over/under Ziglar adding Vampires In Brooklyn jokes in this new arc?

It'd be a good opportunity to have Miles as the leader, since outside of Uncanny Avengers mutants haven't really been major members of non mutant teams lately.
Yeah no offense to Hobbie, but he's not exactly a major member of Peter's supporting cast. You can go entire series without mentioning him once, conversely you can't tell Miles' story without Aaron at least being partly involved. If you want it to be good at least, looking at you Spider-Man 2017.
Pretty good issue today, the interactions were fun and Miles' suit looked good in action. I'm thinking this and the next issue are definitely setup for Blood Hunt in the same way we got two issues with Hobgoblin as future setup for Gang War.

Hightail getting turned is a bit unexpected, but she's way too narrow minded about catching Miles so she payed the price for it. Now we have a speedster vampire to deal with a regular speedster is already a big problem to deal with. Also there's talk of Miles evolving his spider sense and it'll be interesting to see where that goes, since there's plenty of examples of the spider sense improving with training.
Also now that I think about it if this vampire is the main villain of Blood Hunt I think it's the first time an event villain will have originated from Miles' book.
This was a fun issue. I thought the heroes had great chemistry and worked really well together.

And yeah, Hightail's hotheadedness really screwed things up in this issue. I wonder if after all of this is over, she'll reflect on what happened and changed her approach to things. I'm not holding my breath to that, lol.
Also, the glowing effect the suit gives Miles' webs remended me of his venom webs feom Bendis' run and I kind of wish they'll get brought back.
Ok, i gotta say it, i'm not feeling this energy sword gimmick. Is it just me? i feel most ppl dig it but man, i dunno. Miles' traditional venom power and camo(which barely gets used anymore) were already my fill of powers to diferentiate him from Peter. The sword is just getting kind of hokey IMHO.
Pretty good issue tho. The suit was pretty cool and he had great chemistry with Blade & Bloodline, i feel Miles' Spider-Man is made to be a more likeable person all around than Peter's.

I'm really liking how Ziglar's handling how Miles' power set is evolving. He's managing to make it feel organic to the story and character for the most part; especially with how he's further developing his spider-sense. While I do like Miles' venom saber I think I'm more looking forward to seeing him play around with different energy constructs though.
This could be really fun. He could form different weapons, a shield, he could create spider legs like the ones on a iron spider suit. His venom blasts could take different shapes like Kirin or the Black Panther jutsu from Naruto. The sky's the limit as long as they're creative enough or seen enough manga/anime, lol.
as much as I giggled In some scenes it did feel like there was too much story in one single issue and the taking your child to work so she could fight villains irresponsible (It does feel weird considering Miles' age too that so side-eying myself and Blade)
I cringed soooo hard when Mr. Brooks called his daughter "baby girl" like Isn't he British?
