Is that Rio or Anna Maria?

Guys, I can see what seems to be Miles's hand on the far left of that cover. It's a connecting cover, Miles's supporting cast are probably on the other side.
And yes, that's definitely Anna Maria.
Eh, while art wise it looks fantastic (Seriously, I love more realism in my comics, who did this by chance?)
I am kind of tired of Variant books of the series constantly having Peter Front and Center while Miles is in the background. It was alright in the first series because the series was mostly about Peter and him giving closure to his ultimate counterparts. But this series is about Miles and he shouldn't be seen as second fiddle on the cover.
I believe it's Alex Ross.
There's probably a Miles variant with him front-and-center that connects with this one.I am kind of tired of Variant books of the series constantly having Peter Front and Center while Miles is in the background.

Alex Ross is a genius, easily one of my top 3 favorite artists ever in comics, the realism that he brought to comics was industry shattering.
Eh, we will see, but this isn't the only variant I'm talking about. If you look at all the spider men variant covers, it's mostly Peter front and center and miles somewhere in the distance (exaggeration but still behind Peter mostly.) You will have a few that has them on the same level of importance, though they are primarily the main covers. But it still not right for a series that focusing on miles to have him as a backdrop in most of the variant covers. I was planning on buying a few which I don't normally do but not with what they are producing.
He does have nice art .
I guess Peter's kind of more in the forefront in some, but not by much in my opinion and I think Miles is pretty dynamically and prominently posed next to him in them.Eh, we will see, but this isn't the only variant I'm talking about.

That was pretty nice, 616 Miles and Fisk's relationship was actually pretty cool.
Anyone else notice that the love interests for both Miles are named Barbara? Coincidence or is it going to be some twist where Miles is trying to date his alternate reality daughter? Probably not but it's still a weird choice.
Anyway this was obviously going to be backstory so I'm satisfied with how it went.
Well Bendis has done the impossible, He has made literally the first villain that I thoroughly enjoy and like. I almost never like villains (and I don't consider anti-heroes villains)
and usually can't wait to see them get thrashed by the heroes. But 616 Miles is different for some reason, he has that perfect blend of confidence yet insecurity because of his face, he's probably one of if not the most relatable villain I've seen in comics and it's going to be the first time in comics where I don't want Miles to completely lay out a villain, but maybe get him to turn a new leaf.
This issue was an unexpected - and pleasant - surprise. Did not see 616 Miles' story being what it is but I loved it and loved the relationship between him and Fisk. This was a great issue and made me really excited for the rest of this mini and for what 616 Miles' future might hold.
So how old is 616 Miles supposed to be?
He knew a pre-Kingpin Wilson Fisk and seemed to be in his early 20's. That would probably make him older then Peter and much older then the younger Miles.

Honestly, my first thought was why is 616 Miles also dating Mockingbird ?
