Why doesn't Barry Allen? Or Ted Kord?
Boomer comic sillyness and lack of creativity I imagine
They were replacing dudes who weren't being used anymore due to lack of success
When Miles is Pete's post-humous successor, it's not so bad that he takes the same name. When they coexist in pretty much any other universe, it's kind of silly.
because theyre successors
He has spider powers? Maybe something like “Spider-Man”.
>He has spider powers?
He actually has lightning powers so probably something like Static.
So every Robin should call himself Batman instead because they have the same powers
Well that name is in use so would be odd, especially since you don't see Ben and Kaine doing that.
>has spider powers
Does he?
He turns invisible, shoots lightning, and clings to walls.
Other than the wall thing, those aren't spider powers.
Why the frick did they give him electric powers? That's like the number 1 joke about overused powers on black characters
Fit better for the movie than the venom.
>than the venom
he never had venom of any kind.
But anon, it's 'not' electricity, wink-wink, nudge-nudge
No. He’s a Spider-Man because of brand recognition with the animated movies.
The Champions comics have him the alternate name Shadow-Spider though.
Which is pretty bad ass.
>The Champions comics gave him the alternate name
No they did not. That was when they had amnesia and ended up in DnD cosplay in Weirdworld. He's always been Spider-Man in champs otherwise
That’s what I meant by alternate name when they were in an “alternate dimension.”
I have an idea
Kid Arachnid.
Even just Arachnid would be fine.
They should embrace him being tge 4th Prowler instead of the 4th Spiderman
I dunno but it's dumb. When I look at Spiderman I will never think of Miles first
but if he was some shit like "Venom Spider" or whatever then he would pop up in my head instantly
Does he even have a secret identity? Everyone just calls him Miles Morales, can't the kingpin figure out who he is? He's probably Miles Morales.
Swagger-Teen
Miles IS Spider-Man, and will be the one to replace Peter one day when he finally gets his shit together and retires with MJ to have kids.
Yes but thankfully Bailey will be right there behind him to replace him the next day after the police shoots him for stealing a white man's costume
Miles is Miles. Look at the big text.
Spin
Came here to post this.
Frickin' baby show gave him an alias already.
Before they stop publishing comics entirely, Marvel should do a two year crossover where they eventually realize that Ben Reilly had reverse-vitiligo this whole time.
This makes me think some consulting firm told Marvel they needed more Spider-Man and they've been chasing it since the Clone Saga.
Spidercoon
They simultaneously want Miles to be Spider-Man, but also Miles Morales. They want to get the brand recognition of Spider-Man with the brownie points of having a black character.
But if you say Spider-Man, everyone thinks of Peter Parker.
If people knew he was black would they still feel safe being around him?
Because then you might forget that he's not white.
Because if he was anything but a parasite to an existing character no one would've cared about him at all.
They make a lot of dumb decisions with things like this.
Miles and Peter both just being Spider-Man. Then they keep using Spider-Woman for Gwen despite the film already having a Spider-Woman and Gwen having the moniker Ghost-Spider which they could have used in the film. At one point they even called her Spider-Gwen in one of the text boxes, despite how they were apparently at one point trying to get away from using that.
If you ask me, the reality is they've just run completely dry on creativity.
If Spider-Gwen can be Spider-Gwen, he can be Spider-Miles
Spider-Miles, Spider-Miles, does whatever Peter Parker can
Spider-Gwen isn't actually called Spider-Gwen though. That's a catchy name for the fans, but she's still called Spider-Woman, which works because she's the only one in her universe, and in the multiverse Spider-Woman isn't technically a version of Spider-Man. Miles is just Miles.
I thought she was Ghost Spider
They should just take Everybody Hates Chris and shove Spider Miles shit on it.
It’s that easy to fix Miles.
Spider-Venom?
Spider-Shock?
Call him Dark Web.
Tarantula. I don't care that there's already a character who uses it, Miles' whole shtick is stealing stuff from other supers. Honestly if comic media was open about his identity just being stolen from other supers it could be funny or interesting to delve into.
At this point if they won’t change the name, at least change the spelling to differentiate him from Peter, like Spyder-Man or something.
In-universe, you'd assume everyone would call him The Black Spider-man if he didn't come up with a name. He'd be motivated to distance himself from that for obvious reasons and would come up with a name. However the people in these superhero universes are quite nice and don't refer to him like that
It's not like Black Spider is a terrible name either.
Blackbolt, Black Adam, Black Canary, Blackheart, Black Widow, Blackbeard. Black+noun just works (or name in Black Adam's case)
Black Spider is a DC character though
so was Captain Marvel
Change his suit and make him White Spider, Blue Spider, Red spider, Green Spider, Pink Spider
Then, when an enemy's too strong, he can summon the Spidazord and it can destroy the enemy with a giant electric blade.
>Why doesn't Miles Morales have his own super name? What should it be?
Because he can't stand on his own. He need to bask in Pete's afterglow. Without that he's nothing.
Miles won't have made it as a character until he can stand as his own brand. Even Rhodey uses his own moniker and he's literally just using one of Tony's suits.
Something to disguise his name… like Spider-Morales. Or maybe…. Miles-Man.
How many times are we going to have this thread, and how many times do we need to go over that this isn't anything new to comics?
BUT BLACK PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>BUT BLACK PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
except nobody ever had a problem with Black Panther, Luke Cage: Hero for Hire, Falcon, Storm, Blade, etc
Laura goes by Wolverine.
Kate Bishop goes by Hawkeye.
Hell, Sam currently goes by Captain America.
Yet you punk b***hes only complain about Miles.
He ain’t changing his name. Suck it haters!
>Laura goes by Wolverine.
>Kate Bishop goes by Hawkeye.
>Hell, Sam currently goes by Captain America.
>Yet you punk b***hes only complain about Miles.
>He ain’t changing his name. Suck it haters!
all of those are irrelevant now or nobody cares
Peter will be Spiderman till the end of time while Miles will get killed off sometime in the next decade after the Spiderverse movies end and he has nothing to prop him up anymore
>all these other DEI replacement experiments do the same thing, so there!
Grim
Nobody really likes Kate and also points out in universe how two Hawkeyes is confusing at like multiple points. Also Nobody really cares about Hawkeye in general except for a select few people and EMH fans.
Nobody really gives a shit about X-21 as Daken already exists and everyone hates him even more.
Nobody and I mean nobody has ever given a frick about the Falcon at all and most of the complaints are more why didn't Bucky or Walker get called Cap instead of him.
The reason Miles in 616 is dumb is he's literally randomly inserted from another universe and has zero connection to Peter at all. That could work if they like made him a fish out of water in 616 but Doctor Strange smoothed it over and basically Miles still remembers 1601 despite being from a different universe there's zero negative consequences from it. There's also the fact Miles' relationship to Peter is completely unrelated to him at all beyond some vague sense of connection of being bitten by a Spider so having four people in 616 each have the backstory
>a spider bit me me superpowers
>Silk
>Peter
>Miles
>Ghost-Spider (though she's on the symbiote life now)
>Thousand too
And all of them are within farting distance of one another in NYC. It's stupid and not even in the like fun comic book sense but the wow they're intellectual bankrupt sense. Frick, I can even give you a run down of a far better canidate for Black Spider-Man in 616. Hobie Brown. Not only can his powers mimic Spidey's and he's been show to successfully mimic him but they're also distinct enough to make him stand out as he has no powers. Hell, I can give you a better angle too than Miles zoomer Morales.
You're a moron. Stop dismissing stupid shit and being like BUT WHAT ABOUT OTHER THING.
>Stop talking about how bad and dumb things are
No
You're a casual that thrives on fabricated outrage
Until a reasonable answer is produced.
They're outgroup biased liberals that will forever seethe that a white man is the most popular hero on the planet so they have to pretend a black man could've done the same by having him steal everything from the white one, they actually think having "Spider-Man but black" is solving important social issues.
it's not a reasonable answer but that is the truth.
Brown Recluse.
Let him be spider-man for a few years. Some motherfricker will bring back the original soon enough.
It happens every time.
Honestly, I'd go with Black Arana, or if they want to get some weeb love on the character, call him "Spider Black"
Or if you want to give him an homage name call him "Spider Sting" based of the move of same name in the capcom vs series.
There are so many names that are catchy, that can be attributed to him. And its not because hes "black" its because his suit is mostly black. He can even have a redemption arc where he changes the color of his costume and could be like "Im not longer Spider Black, I am reborn as the Silver Spider." or some shit. Its not hard to do comics. Creatives are just too afraid to do anything fun.
Because Peter was dead at the time so the name was up for grabs. Then they moved him to a universe where Peter was alive but they won't take the name away from him because doing anything at all that's perceived as negative to a black character is racist. This principle has since been applied globally to both Marvel and DC and covers gays and women as well, which is why there are so many repeated names currently.
>the name was up for grabs
That's not how it works, at least wait until his body is cold
SWAG
Spidah Wit Attitude, G
Brown Recluse might be a little too on the nose.
Wolf Spider? He does do the stinging thing that's unique to him and not Peter.
Yeah he stole that from Jessica Drew instead
>gets electicity, for free
>invisibility, to bettah steal things
>a knife, because white god in white heaven forbid a peaceful resolution to conflicts
Jus call him homieMan cuz that's all he ever be
