Written by Greg Weisman, renowned for his work as the producer of the beloved 2008-09 Spectacular Spider-Man animated show, and illustrated by the talented team of Humberto Ramos, Victor Olazada, and Edgar Delgado, Spectacular Spider-Men #1 wastes no time delving into a thrilling mystery involving Peter’s old adversary, the Jackal.

While the Jackal holds a significant place in Spider-Man comics as the villain responsible for cloning Spider-Man, this story primarily focuses on the evolving relationship between Peter Parker and Miles Morales. Their banter and comedic exchanges inject a refreshing sense of humor back into Spider-Man comics, often resulting in laugh-out-loud moments.

Whether you are a longtime Spider-Man fan or a newcomer to the comic book world, Spectacular Spider-Men #1 provides an ideal starting point for fans who adore both Peter and Miles. Unlike other Spider-Man titles that may be entangled in major crossover events or decades of continuity, this comic offers a standalone and enjoyable experience.

While the main Amazing Spider-Man series and its spin-off, Spider-Man, cater to dedicated fans of the wall-crawler, there is something truly joyful about witnessing Peter Parker and Miles Morales having fun together. Miles, with his grounded demeanor, serves as the perfect foil to Peter’s exuberant and quick-witted personality.

Fans can look forward to the release of Spectacular Spider-Men #2 on April 17, eagerly anticipating the continuation of this exciting series. Marvel has certainly hit the mark with this comic, delivering a delightful and engaging story that captures the essence of the beloved Spider-Man characters.
