Miles Morales is just your average teenager. Dinner every Sunday with his parents, chilling out playing old school video games with his best friend, Ganke, crushing on brainy, beautiful poet Alicia. He has even got a scholarship spot at the prestigious Brooklyn Visions Academy. Oh yeah, and he is Spider Man. But lately, Miles spidey sense has been on the fritz. When a misunderstanding leads to his suspension from school, Miles begins to question his abilities. After all, his dad and uncle were Brooklyn jack boys with criminal records. Maybe kids like Miles are not meant to be Super Heroes? Maybe Miles should take his dads advice and focus on saving himself? As Miles tries to get his school life back on track, he cannot shake the vivid nightmares that continue to haunt him. Nor can he avoid the relentless buzz of his spidey sense every day in history class, amidst his teachers lectures on the historical benefits of slavery and the importance of the modern day prison system. But after his scholarship is threatened, Miles uncovers a chilling plot, one that puts his friends, his neighborhood, and himself at risk. It is time for Miles to suit up!
