DON’T MAKE HIM ANGRY…
What if…instead of being bitten by a genetically enhanced spider, Miles Morales was blasted by gamma radiation and transformed into THE INCREDIBLE HULK?! Is Miles man or monster? Or maybe he’s just a kid trying to live a normal life…school, dates, a rampaging ABOMINATION… Miles may be the strongest there is, but that doesn’t mean growing up will be easy.

Review: What If… Miles Morales #2

What If… Miles Morales #2

When fate is thrust upon you,  do you fight it or embrace it? AS life may take you places where you don’t ever see yourself going, if you embrace it. An argument can be made to the contrary,  where some people believe you make your own luck. I like to think it is a bit of both is in equal measure, where destiny takes you where you are needed, but you also do the work to get there.

Some of us having a greater sense of ourselves in that mindset. When knowing who you are is of great advantage in life, those are the rare ones. This becomes even more  harder to navigate, as these arare ones, gain power and influence. In the return of the classic What If series, What If… Miles Morales #2, we see him take on the mantle of Wolverine, and see if he becomes what they made him.

We are taken to an alternate universe, in 1981 Atlanta, where the city was still facing the siege of Missing Black Children and Miles’ parents don’t have time for him., whereby he would become another victim . Fast forward  41 years later, we are taken to Rhinelander , Wisconsin, where we find a grown up Miles,  where we find out the under the Weapon X program, they have turned him into  Wolverine.  And mutants are being hunted. As SHIELD sends Agent J to go after Wolverine, but unbeknownst to both of them, Miles has been fighting his father, the whole time. The surprises don’t end there, as we find out his uncle Aaron is Sabretooth, where they all realize that the government made them into monsters. By issue’s end, Miles spares Sabretooth’s life, buries his father and meets the X-Men.  

Overall, What If… Miles Morales #2 is a relevant story that adds a great chapter to this series. The story by Ridley is masterful. The art by the creative team is awesome. Altogether, a story which simply astounds.

Review: What If… Miles Morales #1

What If… Miles Morales #1

In a worlds where most of grew up with superheroes not looking like us, this is most definitely an exciting time. As movies are looking more like the real world. As authenticity demands identification, and the movie business has started to look like that, and so has the rest of the entertainment industry. It’s appalling to think that it took almost to the 21st century before we even saw a Black superhero onscreen, the first one of course, being Blade.

Then of course, this all changed when the MCU came into existence. As we eventually got see Falcon, Black Panther, War Machine, Valkyrie and Miles Morales. As these characters brought depth and dimension to the MCU and were even upgraded from their comic versions.  In the return of the classic What If series, we get What If… Miles Morales #1 where the title character shows that he would be a superhero no matter what version of him you get.

We are taken to an alternate universe, where they have restarted the Super Soldier program,  and it just so happens to be on the same military base where Miles’s dad and uncle were stationed. One mishap where his uncle Aaron brought the serum home, leads to Miles unintentionally inhaling the serum,  and becoming a super soldier. As he would train with his uncle , proving his mettle enough to where he goes on his first solo mission, as Captain America, where he would suffer his first loss , his uncle. He used the loss to shape him ,with the help of Falcon and SHIELD as he encounters a deadly foe in the Prowler, and  a new villain called Grey Skull,   who have teamed up to  steal a device which emits immense power. By issue’s end, Miles thwarts Prowler’s and Grey Skull’s plans, but soon finds out someone close ot him has betrayed him.

Overall, What If… Miles Morales #1 is a fun story which that reminds us why What If was such an epic series. The story by Ziglar is astounding. The art by the creative team is awe inspiring. Altogether, a story which shows why Miles Morales is such a powerful protagonist.

Miles has been made into the Wolverine…but that doesn’t mean he has to be what they made him…
