Description
MILES MORALES has a lot going on. He's moved across Marvel's New York to East Harlem, an unfamiliar neighbourhood, is coming to terms with the loss of his father, and there's the small matter of being bitten by a genetically modified spider and gaining superpowers. After a mix-up with the law whilst trying to stop a robbery, Miles questions what it means to be a hero when people are ready to believe the worst in you. Tempted by the power and freedom of his new abilities, Miles must decide what kind of hero he wants to be. When Vulture breaks out of high-security prison and starts wreaking havoc across the city with his new accomplice Starling, Miles can't just sit back and watch. Teamed up with Peter Parker, the two Spider-Men must put a stop to the winged duo before they can unleash experimental tech across the whole city. With lives at risk, can Miles step up and be a hero?
