Miles Morales: Spider-Man, Vol. 1 by Cody Ziglar, Cody Ziglar
4.0

A really fun new start.

Miles is trying to deal with his life as always but he's growing up and getting a bit older. High School is still a problem but feels like we're getting to the end of HS soon. Hoping we can get Miles in college years, would be awesome. Anyway he's dealing with a lot, plus being Spider-Man, and of course his on and off thing with his gf. Then in comes Misty Knight, yes that one, and they team up to take down some baddies.

It's a lot of fun, reminds me a lot of old school Spider-Man adventures. The art is the highlight here though, looking fucking fan-tas-tic. Like really really good fight scenes and overall feel to what's happening on the pages. Miles and Knights relationship is funny as hell and well done. I also love his relationship with his parents.

The villains come across okay here, not sure how I feel about the new one, but intrigued enough to see them go further.

A 3.5 out of 5 but I'll bump it to a 4.
