Miles Gonzalo Morales is a Brooklyn Visions Academy student who was bitten by a radioactive spider and gained spider-like abilities. Initially not wanting to be a hero, he was forced to take up the mantle of the masked vigilante after the death of Peter Parker. After finding the strength he needed to save the city from the Super-Collider with the help of the Spider-Gang, Miles became the new protector of Brooklyn as the ultimate Spider-Man.
While he continued to protect the citizens of New York, Morales gained a new suit as well as fighting to many dangerous supervillains during his own hero work while like his predecessor, he began to have merchandise of any type as well as becoming an new icon to this city like how Peter Parker was in his time getting invite to participate on game shows and TV-Commercials. Upon a fight with a robot that result into a blackout in New York, The Daily Bugle began to incriminating him as a criminal mastermind as well as a menace under the eye of J. Jonah Jameson.
A year and half later, Miles Morales encountered Jonathan Ohnn, a scientist who was affected by the super-collider's explosion. The man, now going by Spot, was calling himself Miles' arch-nemesis but Miles dismissed him, focused on his own problems with his parents. Things would drastically change when Spot started to gain the ability to travel between the alternate dimensions, threatening to take everything he loves.
Concurrently, he was reunited with Gwen Stacy, and his pursuit of her and Spot eventually led him to the Spider-Society. Finding out that his father was about to die and, because it was a "Canon Event", not being allowed to stop it resulted in a conflict with the Society. Miles decided to save his dad and used the Go-Home-Machine to return into his home reality, only to end up in his spider DNA's home universe instead.
Miles Morales was born in the early 2000s in New York City borough of Brooklyn. He was born as the only child of Jefferson Davis and Rio Morales. After his birth his parents would end up marrying and Jefferson would go on to become a cop while his mother became a nurse. As Miles was growing up, his hometown began to be attacked by super villains and other threats which were stopped by the new local superhero Spider-Man. Miles grew up admiring his city's protector, despite his father's reservations about him.
Miles also started to attend Brooklyn Middle School, where he met some of his friends and became a popular kid in the neighbourhood. As he was growing up he became a friendly, humorous, and awkward teenager. He'd end up forming a close bond with his uncle Aaron. His uncle would introduce him to the world of art, spray painting and leaving sticker tags all around Brooklyn. These things would all become hobbies and in the case of art passions that Miles would engage in as he grew up.
Miles' closeness with Aaron and general attitude towards academics drove a wedge between Miles and his father, especially when he won a scholastic contest that enrolled him in the Brooklyn Visions Academy, as Miles was very reluctant to change schools.
Miles ended up passing the school's entrance exam and was allowed to enter the private school. In spite of this, he was reluctant to leave behind his friends and his old school where he was comfortable and popular. His reluctance surrounding his new school occasionally put him at odds with his father.[6]
Starting his first day in this new school, Miles quickly found himself out of place. Before even getting through the door he was embarrassed by his father who ordered him to say "I love you" over his cop car's loudspeaker in front of a bunch of fellow schoolmates. He would end up being late to his physics class and tried to play it off with an Einstein joke, Miles managed to hold a short yet genuine conversation with another classmate, who was the only one who laughed at his joke as a result of how bad it was. Later in the day Miles would attempt to intentionally fail a test to be sent back to his old school by using fake answers. The plan would not get far as he was eventually called out by one of his teachers, who assigned him a personal essay on the topic of elaborating what kind of person he aspired to be, likely in an attempt to make him feel comfortable at his new school.
Stressed out by his situation, Miles temporarily abandoned his essay and his dormitory to visit his paternal uncle, Aaron Davis. The two exchanged a brief yet hearty conversation regarding Miles' new school and a potential love interest, referring to the classmate he had spoken to that day. Aaron decided to give Miles some advice regarding how to approach a girl, demonstrating by placing a hand on his shoulder and giving a seductive "hey," to which Miles found hilarious and unbelievable. Noticing drawings in Miles' notebook, an impressed Aaron took a reluctant Miles to an abandoned subway terminal, which served as a canvas for Miles to freely throw up his graffiti and express himself. Unbeknownst to the pair, a radioactive spider labelled "42," which had escaped from Alchemax lingered in the area, slowly approaching Miles and hiding in his clothing as he worked on his graffiti. With Aaron's help, he managed to complete his drawing. As the pair admired the drawing, Aaron reveals that he and Miles' father used to throw up graffiti back in the day before he took a job as a cop, surprising Miles, who seemed disbelieving of the fact. Aaron then received an unknown text, prompting him to leave the subway. Before leaving with his uncle, Miles turned to his drawing, pulling out his phone to take a picture. At that moment, the spider crawled out of Miles' sleeve, biting him in the hand. Unfazed by the spider's odd appearance, Miles calmly slapped the spider, killing it swiftly. After watching it fall to the floor, Miles quickly forgot about the spider and left the subway after being called over by Aaron, who seemed oblivious to the spider.[6]
The following day, Miles underwent a bizarre series of changes, including a growth spurt and the ability to adhere to materials and surfaces. Freaked out by the sudden changes, a panicked miles stumbled across the classmate he had met the day prior, who awkwardly introduced herself as "Wanda", mistaken by Miles as "Gwanda". Unable to properly listen to "Gwanda" speak due to the stress, Miles awkwardly tried to heed Aaron's flirting advice. In a seemingly slow manner, he flopped his hand onto "Gwanda's" shoulder and awkwardly said "hey," to which she seemed confused yet relatively unfazed by. After realizing the situation, Miles quickly made his leave, but soon found his fingers attached and completely stuck to the girl's hair. Confused, "Gwanda" requested that Miles let go, to which he tried his hardest and failed, causing a commotion. The two resorted to shaving that part of "Gwanda's" hair off. Miles anxiously attempted to properly greet the girl afterwards, the latter of which seeming unamused.
Embarrassed and overwhelmed, Miles ran off, attempting to ignore the crowds of students quizzically gazing at him after the events that transpired, accidentally provoking the school's head of security, who attempted to confront the boy after finding out he had snuck out of his dormitory the previous evening. Miles found himself rushing into a room, which happened to be the head of security's office. Panicked, Miles fell out of the office window, managing to stick to the side of the building. Surprisingly, he was only spotted by "Gwanda," who seemed confused, albeit somewhat amused. After a struggle, Miles eventually navigated his way to his dorm room, where he discovered a comic book owned by his roommate. The book displays the origins of Spider-Man, causing Miles to realize that he was experiencing a distinctly similar transformation.[6]
Wanting to convince himself that he was not turning into another Spider-Man, Miles searched for answers over the course of the evening, leading him to the abandoned subway terminal Aaron took him to, where he was bitten by the spider. Upon finding the dead spider, Miles slowly calmed himself down, noticing how "boringly normal" the spider looked. That was, until Miles prodded it, causing it to glitch and spasm. This startles Miles, but before he can question it, Miles "senses" danger nearby, his senses leading him to a facility deeper into the abandoned subway. There, he witnessed Spider-Man himself battling Green Goblin. Shocked and slightly awestruck, Miles took the time to record the battle on his phone, but was eventually unintentionally pulled into the battle, causing him to begin falling from a deadly height. Noticing the helpless boy with his spider-sense, Spider-Man hurriedly swung down and saved Miles, landing him safely on solid ground. A moment later, the pair's spider-sense both went off simultaneously, causing Spider-Man to realize that Miles had capabilities identical to his own. Intrigued, Spider-Man informed him that he would help train him.
Spider-Man briefly leaves Miles to finish his fight with Green Goblin. In the midst of the battle, Kingpin activates the Super-Collider, which the battle had been taking place in. Just before the Collider was overloaded, Green Goblin pulled Spider-Man directly into the Collider, causing Kingpin to panic. As a result, dimensions collided, causing other Spider-People to be flung out of the Collider, unbeknownst to everyone involved in the battle. A moment later, the Collider exploded and was partially destroyed. Miles, who seemed relatively uninjured, wandered the wreckage. He was quick to find Spider-Man, who was severely injured in comparison to the former. After assuring him that he was alright, Spider-Man gave Miles an override key and requested him to finish the job for him and destroy the Collider for good. Kingpin, Prowler and Tombstone had heard the pair's voices, however, causing Spider-Man to quickly send Miles away, who ran and hid, but watched from a distance. Spider-Man and Kingpin exchanged a brief conversation, which soon resulted in Spider-Man claiming that he knew Kingpin's plan was, which was to revive his deceased wife and son. Enraged, Kingpin brought his fists down on Spider-Man, ultimately killing him entirely. Shocked, Miles accidentally made a sound, alerting the three. Watching Miles run, Kingpin ordered Prowler to pursue and kill him.
