Spider-Man is a hero that I’ve always loved. For years, before the Marvel Cinematic Universe brought us so many heroes for people to look up to, Spider-Man was the one hero I embraced. He was my dad’s favorite, my brother’s favorite, and eventually, I ended up loving him, too.
Fast-forward about twenty years, to when Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was in theaters, introducing me to Miles Morales, an Afro-Latino alternate version of Spider-Man that truly took my world by storm and ended up becoming my favorite version of the superhero. Now, the sequel, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has released and somehow, Miles has gotten even cooler and his character has changed in so many interesting ways, even though it hasn’t been that long since we’ve seen him.
