    All in all, Miles Morales: Spider-Man #1 is a near-perfect first issue. It is easily accessible to newcomers, but respectful of history and its main character. It features evocative art and a well-spun story composed of a perfect blend of action, comedy, and drama. Read Full Review

    Aug 12, 2026

    Miles Morales’ latest relaunched debut tries to take a big leap of faith but instead lands with a noticeable dull thud. Not even the artwork can save a story that relies on cliches, forgets the heart of the character, and trips over it’s own feet. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Clique - Abel Loza

    Miles Morales: Spider-Man #1 was a smaller-scale debut of a new series with big aspirations. For the most part, writer Bryan Edward Hill and artists Nico Leon and Valentine De Landro got off to a quick, good start. Miles’ aspirations are admirable, but as we all know, having a regular childhood or life as a superhero is a lot easier said than done. A new villain is introduced, and exploring his past—tied to Miles’s father Jeff’s past work with S.H.I.E.L.D.—should give us plenty of room to explore new lore in Miles' and his family’s past. This is an exciting restart for a fan-favorite character. Read Full Review

    Overall, this is an effective return to form for Miles. The art is amazing on every level, and the story and characters have me interested, but not hooked yet. The real thing holding it back from a higher rating is the strange movie synergies, which bothered me a lot. Still, I’m excited to see where this comic goes next! Read Full Review

    Read the first issue and I'm really liking what I'm reading so far. Miles still sounds like Miles and I'm liking the dialogue from the other characters and how they interact with each other. Hill promised us cinematic action and I can safely say he is delivering on that promise so far.

    Looks like Hill's also making it a point to reinforce all of Miles past experiences and power ups throughout his entire comic history, and to ensure that none of it is being removed or rebooted and more will be expanded upon and explored.

    Art is amazing as expected from both the talented artists. Solid inaugural issue for Bryan Edward's Hill's run and I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes.

    It was ok enough to probably read #2 but also wouldn't be that upset if I didn't.
