THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MEN Comic Book Trailer Offers A First Look At Peter Parker And Miles Morales’ Team-Up

This March, Peter Parker and Miles Morales will finally join forces as true partners, teaming up for missions that require a double dose of web-head. It’s a duo better than dynamic, amazing, sensational, and even superior…simply put, they’re spectacular.

Written by Greg Weisman and illustrated by longtime Amazing Spider-Man artist Humberto Ramos, Spectacular Spider-Men will mark Peter and Miles’ first-ever ongoing team-up series. Weisman, known for writing the beloved Spectacular Spider-Man animated series and for his work on Gargoyles, returns with all the web-slinging drama and adventure that made the former such a beloved fan favourite.  

We’ll experience Peter and Miles forming a new bond, as the two heroes meet weekly to swap intelligence and tips both in and out of costume. Learning from each other’s differences in age and experience, Peter and Miles’ compatibility is quickly put to the test in an epic confrontation with the Jackal. What was intended as a personal mentorship spirals into a superhero epic as the two dive deeper into that classic villain’s mysterious scheme.

Today, we get a first look at Peter and Miles’ new dynamic and their explosive run-in with the Jackal in the first Spectacular Spider-Men trailer, featuring never-before-seen artwork. 

“I’m so thrilled to be writing Spidey again, and the fact that I get to write both Spideys, together, makes the gig doubly sweet,” Weisman says. “It’s fun for me, because in this book, I see the younger Miles trying really hard to show his maturity to his mentor Peter, while the older Pete feels free to let out his inner 16-year-old with Miles. So there’s a bit of role reversal to the normal mentor-protege relationship than one might expect to see.”

“But I think both Pete and Miles still feel very true to character. And when things get serious, so do our boys (quippage notwithstanding.) What we’re seeing here is the evolution from mentor and protegee to them simply being good friends,” he continues. “And that change of status (in process, as it is) really interests me as a writer. Oh, and Humberto’s art is so damn gorgeous.”

We’re honestly shocked it’s taken Marvel Comics this long to pair these two wall-crawling wonders up permanently, particularly after the success Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse found back in 2018 (and Insomniac’s Spider-Man video games, for that matter). 

With Weisman and Ramos on this new series, though, it’s apparent the title is being treated seriously. Plus, with The Jackal thrown into the mix, we’d be shocked if clones don’t eventually come into play! In case you missed it, you can also check out the cover for The Spectacular Spider-Men #1 below.
