    I wasn't the biggest fan either, but it's cool to see it getting referenced. And now everyone except Zip Zephyr has shown up somewhere, even though Queen Goblin was never in Miles' book, though it is possible Gust is just a reworked Zip.

    But wait, how does Miles' Spider-Sense register Venom? Symbiotes don't register on Spider-Sense.
    Agreed about Misty, she talks a big game for someone that gets battered aside in I almost every confrontation she's been in since she first showed up in the book.

    And it's not like Peter being weaker than the other spiders is anything new. Mayday has her magnetism powers and a powerful spider sense and if I remember correctly Kaine once took on Peter and Ben at the same time and won.

    Reminds me when she and Colleen felt so insulted they got beat by Doc Ock .

    I guess it just stands out more when he's treated like a complete joke in his own book.

    Symbiotes don't register on Peter's spider-sense because most of the ones that appear on Earth descended from the Venom symbiote that was previously bonded with him before he knew it was a somewhat carnivorous and sometimes-malevolent alien lifeform and not a really cool "alien costume." Back in the 1990s when Ben Reilly as the Scarlet Spider tangled with Eddie Brock/Venom, his advantage was that he was created before Peter bonded with the symbiote and thus his spider-sense could still detect Venom. Same logic would apply to Miles, at least not counting the universe(s) where he did bond with a symbiote, as technically the one he bonded with in mainline canon (Absolute Carnage) was an offshoot of Carnage and not Venom, unlike in the Dark Ages A/U miniseries where he bonded with both.

    I'm more confident about my predictions for the basic plot of this story now. Dylan and Miles cross paths, and he decides to go all 'Lethal Protector' on this Black Obsidian. They fight then probably team up. Should be decent.

    Good catch on the gust angle I could see that or maybe if gust becomes a straight up supervillian, she changes her name

    Doesnt that only apply to Peter to the symbiote bonding to him? But yeah Miles got another interesting power up. Peter will forever be the Ryu of the Spider-Man

    The template on and formula from which all the others are based and derived? Yeah, that tracks. To quote Adam, the second Black Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger, during the "Once a Ranger" arc of Operation Overdrive celebrating what was then 15 seasons of Power Rangers in reaction to his fellow "Retro Rangers'" flashier "civilian form" abilities and gimmicks: "It might be old-school, but it still gets the job done." That's how I feel about Peter as the OG Spider-Man; he may seem basic compared to what the others who have since succeeded or followed him bring to the table, but he was the one who set the table they all eat from in the first place, so he deserves his flowers, too, as they say today.

    Happy 2024 to my favorite 21st Century American Comic Book Superhero. I hope Miles continues to kill it in 2024.

    Same here. He's been on a winning streak so far, and I'm hoping he has a big role in Jed MacKay's Blood Hunt, given his recent team-up with Blade.

I know Rabble is a very polarising character ( people seem to either hate her or love her) but I like hatin' ass villains and that's exactly what she is lol.
    Of course, now she's assaulting and trying to arrest federal agents, and could end up in federal prison for it. Supremacy clause, don'tcha know.

    Miles basically doing what he and Peter do in the games. Neat . As cool as Miles’ new abilities are they just gotta stick around in other media and other writers for them to last. There’s nothing stopping Peter from doing the same thing, but every writer basically wants to keep Peter in a bubble of just staring from 0 with every new run. Let’s not make it a habit with Miles . Lol

    Good call. The other "Retro Rangers" all had some form of civilian power they could use when unmorphed. Tori had hydrokinesis, Kira had a Black Canary style sonic scream, Bridge had forcefields, and Xander had plant powers. But Adam just relied on martial arts.

    exactly dont reset him build upon it. And if you feel he is getting to strong then introduce stronger opponents or upgrade his weaker enemies

    Yep. Let's hope future writers have the creativity to do this.
