Whoa, hold up! Miles Morales' Daughter is the NEW Black Cat?!
Marvel Comics just dropped a HUGE bombshell in Spider-Man: Reign 2 #4 (written and drawn by Kaare Andrews), and it totally blew my mind. This dystopian Spider-Man sequel reveals a seriously shocking twist that involves Felicia Hardy's replacement and the revelation surrounding this mystery; it unveils a secret involving the new Black Cat. Prepare yourselves, because it involves Miles Morales in a crazy way.
The preview released by GamesRadar revealed an incredible confrontation, including time-travel thanks to the ever-helpful Green Goblin and a fight between Spider-Man and an older, seriously tougherMiles Morales. Kitty-Kat (Felicia Hardy’s daughter), intervenes and completely drops the bomb:Milesis her father!
Spider-Man: Reign 2 is already morbid – seriously dark, showing this totally bleak, authoritarian New York – showing its oppressive power in this horrific world. I already assumed we’d never get some good news;yet despite some positive events that had also happened during that time; that's before they revealed that Miles Morales is in serious trouble – something many fans did not anticipate – completely contradicting his general depiction as a hopeful, good character; even if slightly troubled at certain points. This versionshows the darkness impacting this hero and creating some unexpectedly complicated problems that result in a seriously disturbing reveal.
InSpider-Man: Reign 2 #1we are initially introduced to hints and some speculation concerningMiles’murky past— involving Kingpinand suggesting Milespossibly worked with that tyrant.Kitty’s encounter only deepens this, revealing how deeplyMileshad already hurt bothKittyand her mom.It’s truly disturbing; showing those horrific details involving violence, showing a previously completely absent dark side that really reimagines that original hero's core characterization and presents some serious questions, further suggesting there's much, much more tothis darker Miles Morales than initially implied!
MilesandFelicia Hardyhave almost never interacted before (a minor scene exists in main continuity). That’s the main reason why this father-daughter plot is so bizarre!The age difference makes this relationship so shocking, and it highlights just why theReignuniverse reimagines everything; presenting completely unique storytelling decisions from various approaches to well-established characters; this creates a whole new interpretation!This also adds to how fascinating this really is!And it really also adds this much needed excitement for readers who otherwise wouldn’t feel such intense reactions otherwise.
Kitty’s encounter inSpider-Man: Reign 2, coupled with earlier time-travel shows that the future was significantly altered from various plot choices that created entirely unexpected consequences— this seriously rewritesmany past moments and really focuses that attention back towards these key characters; creating something genuinely interesting that hadn't yet existed and it's one that's highly appealing for audiences to discover.
This is the thing:Kitty-Katis completely different than what we find in mainlineMarvel; a genuinely new addition to the established lore and completely reimagines the characters involved!The bleak storyline is great; and that earlierReignstoryline ending withPeter ParkerbecomingSpider-Manonce more. This later sequel changed this storyline however – this unexpected dark family storyline forKittyreally adds layers and that makes this darker world somehow more engaging; and it really could make an intriguing point: creating a truly positive outcome could deliver such an important moral message. We’re already hooked, curious and anticipating what would happen next.
Marvel's twist inSpider-Man: Reign 2is amazing and mind-bending, shaking the whole story around! Kitty-Kat’sexistence creates plenty of new narratives that make that story incredibly suspenseful – the writers' commitment to making challenging, morally ambiguous and dramatic choices, has given these darker, almost oppressive scenes an extra level of depth which had otherwise never been created before and really shows the writer's skill in utilizing that deep fanbase for maximum storytelling effect.It really does challenge some viewers!
It changes things drastically. And as we eagerly await thatOctober 16th, 2024release? It really shows those compelling narrative directions possible with unexpected choices; we're absolutely anticipating whatMarvelwill do!
