Miles Morales’ New Design is One of the Character’s Best Yet
The Vibranium Spider-Man suit sort of functions as an update on the Iron Spider formula. Instead of giving Peter Parker a suit made of Tony Stark’s tech, Miles gets a cool upgrade crossing over with the Black Panther corner of the Marvel Universe. It may not remain the main costume for Miles’ iteration of Spider-Man, but should come to be valued as one of his strongest looks overall. Though he has had quitea few new powerful costumes across Marvel Comics,the Vibranium suit is one of the designs that works best to represent the individuality of Miles Morales’ Spider-Man.
Swapping the traditional web fluid for a compound containing Vibranium, the Wakandan upgrade to Spidey’s suit helps him achieve even more than just “whatever a spider can”. Unbreakable webs, near indestructible fabric, heightened energy, and control over vampire hunger are just the perks revealed so far for this new addition to Miles Morales’ rotating closet of superhero suits, with more seemingly to be revealed over his next arc alongside T’Challa.
