Everyone's favorite web-head, more of a Peter Parker problem. In recent years, Miles Morales has quickly shot up the ranks of the Spider-Verse to become a fan favorite Spider-Man, but it appears his heroic ways may be shifting in the Miles Morales: Spider-Man #18.
Following focused on the teenage heroes of Marvel Comics. The event will leave any hero under the age of twenty-one a criminal. Being Miles falls into this category of "under-aged" hero, he is now left to be an outlaw on the run.

- Ganke. Barbara. Judge. Lana. Mr. Sumida. Rio. Jeff. Miles knows he has to help people as Spider-Man, so he’s ready to live as an outlaw. But is he ready to do it without the of someone he loves? Who’s with Miles, who’s against him, and who’s side are YOU on?
While this isn't the first time the government in the Marvel Universe has cracked down on masked do-gooders, this is definitely the first time we've seen them go after just children heroes specifically. It seems the comic event will explore the morality of allowing children, super-human or not, to fight our battles for us. This event will span across multiple comics and characters, but, with a police officer for a father, Miles just might have the most internal conflict to deal with. Just as with the Civil War event, it will be interesting to see which heroes pick which sides, and leaves one to wonder whom of their favorite adult heroes will be hunting down these minors. What do you think? Should the fighting be left for the adults? Or does great power come with great responsibility no matter the age?
Answers shall arrive this May when Miles Morales: Spider-Man #18 finally hits the shelves of your favorite comic shop.
