Ultimate Spider-Man No More!

Looks like Miles may have had enough of being Spider-Man and is calling it quits.

When Ultimate Peter Parker died and we saw Miles take over, if someone would have mentioned the possibility of Miles no longer being Spider-Man, people probably wouldn't have much to say. With this teaser Marvel released today, it's a different story. Could we be seeing the end of Miles' career as Spider-Man?

No Caption Provided

Chances are, this won't be the end of his career. Too many people love Miles now. And if he's not Spider-Man, who would be? We've seen Peter 'quit' many times in the 616 universe. The question is, why does Miles feel the need to quit now?

The story behind this image will leave readers in tears! What could possibly drive Miles Morales to abandon his role as Ultimate Comics Spider-Man? Find out this May, in Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #23!

Miles looks kinda taller. Bendis says hes going to do a time jump. i think Miles mother dies and he quits til hes 18. There are lots of lil powered spiders (atleast 42 of em) to empower someone else but i really like Miles and i hope they stick with him

If Pichelli's absent for the arc, will she be working on another project for a bit? Like Spider-Men? Either way Miles won't stay Spider-less for too long but I hope it's a really emotionally driven story.

This is dumb. I hear there is going to be a time jump. That the story continues but he will be older. So what it will be in the future while the rest of the universe in in normal time? Maybe instead they just age him and forfet to age everyone else like it's normal. Both are dumb IMO with the later being worse.

Ehh, that's what they all say.

And by that, I mean both versions of Peter Ultimate and Mainstream. Ultimate Peter said he would quit how many times? 2 or 3? Still, can't wait.

@LeaderVladimir: Actually, it's a mirror image of The Amazing Spider-Man #50 cover.

It's probably going to be a story arc leading up to issue #25.

This would be surprising taking into consideration that it took Bendis 10 years for Peter to get one birthday. I liked the 1 comic book year equals ten years for us idea.

Who said this will be like the 616 story? The story will probably be completly different. Considering this isn't even Peter Parker... This should only be taken as an homage.

@LeaderVladimir: No, the scene in Spider-Man 2 is a rehash of a panel in The Amazing Spider-Man # 50. Making the cover a tribute to this issue.

Oh I'm sure the story won't be identical to the original. But if Marvel wanted to emphasize the originality of the Ultimate Universe (which, as I stated, was my understanding for its existence: to tell stories with classic characters that couldn't be told in 616 universe), making an blatant reference to ASM 50 isn't the best way to go about it.

Been reading this since the beginning, and I still feel like Bendis hasn't fleshed out Miles a whole heck of a lot - and now he's "quitting"? Sounds pretty dumb to me, kinda early in Miles' story for him to "quit."

I think this is an interesting storyline to revisit through the lens of Miles, but I wish they would wait a little longer, after he's had a few more adventures.

If Miles quiets being spider man i give up hope on marvel. It seems that the ultimate comics is the only good thing marvel is putting out at the moment.
