I wonder if it bothers Miles Morales that in any universe he shares with a red-suited Peter Parker people obviously call him “black Spider-Man”

“Why is he Miles Morales when that’s his mom’s last name?”
Because the Peter Parker-like alliteration and the non-whitebread “Morales” make it clear from the name alone this wasn’t another Ben Reilly, but growing up Black in NYC in the crack era was a more interesting background for his cop dad.

Nice that Miles Morales is getting a kind of come-up that isn’t coming at Peter Parker’s expense
Of all recent gender/racebent relaunches he feels least gratuitous, in that in 2020 “a smart outer-borough high schooler struggling to keep his head above water in the NYC he feels an intimate part of” really wouldn’t be that whitebread
