Writer Cody Ziglar and Marvel Stormbreaker artist Federico Vicentini are bringing a whole new (web)spin to Miles Morales this December as the young superhero tackles a new solo series; Miles Morales: Spider-Man sees Miles taking on all new obstacles both in his civilian life at school and with his love life — as well as against a brand-new villain to face off against in his life as Spider-Man. The villain, Rabble, is a tech genius that has been plotting her revenge against Miles for years and when she’s through, Miles’ life may never be the same again.
“It’s fantastic to work on this new character,” Vicentini said of his work on the new series. “I was given total freedom of creation. Based on Cody’s description and on his notes, I had a clear idea of how I wanted to portray the armor; it had to be something rough, but resistant and ingenious at the same time. And thanks also to the drones, Rabble’s gonna rock! Brace yourself, Miles!”
“There’s the drama of it, he’s fighting villains and stuff but also, he’s a young kid, he’s a teenager. He’s got his best friend, he’s got cool powers, and yes, that comes with some negatives, but he’s trying to do his best,” Ziglar told The Root. “He has a great support system. His parents know that he’s a Super Hero, they support him fully, but they’re also like just be careful out there. I love that optimism that this Spidey has had and I definitely want to continue to bring that through because I’m a comedy writer. I dip into the drama when I need to, but I like having a good time.”
