As part of Ultimate Spider-Man's 'Death of Spider-Man' storyline, published in 2011, the end of Peter Parker's story paved the way for a new character, one he co-created with artist Sara Pichelli, and which was intended to rectify some of Marvel's spotted history with Black and Latino heroes. 'I saw him in the costume and thought: 'I would like to read that book'.'Īnd, in a way, he made that book happen. 'He looked fantastic!' he told USA Today (via MTV).

That nephew is, of course, Miles Morales. We see him mid-deal on some high-tech firearms before he's apprehended by Spider-Man, who then questions him about the Vulture's plans.Īt one point, Aaron admits that he wants to keep weapons off the streets in order to protect his nephew.

This is crucial information.Īt one point, in Across the Spider-Verse, Miguel leads Miles through Nuevo York's personal prison complex, where we see what appears to be the MCU's own version of the Prowler aka Aaron Davis, played by Donald Glover in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Into the Spider-Verse ended with the reveal that Miles's (Shameik Moore) own uncle Aaron Davis ( Mahershala Ali) was the villainous Prowler.
