***"Everyone gets mad at hustlers, especially if you're on the victim
side of the hustle. And Miles knew hustling was in his veins."
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's even got
a scholarship spot at the prestigious Brooklyn Visions Academy. Oh yeah,
and he's Spider Man.
But lately, Miles's 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 aren't meant to
be superheroes. Maybe Miles should take his dad's advice and focus on
saving himself.
As Miles tries to get his school life back on track, he can't 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 teacher's lectures on the historical "benefits" of slavery and 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's time for Miles to suit up.
