Ahead of its kick-off with Miles Morales Spider-Man #25 on April 28th, Marvel Comics has released a trailer for the new “Clone Saga” story. First announced here on AIPT in January, the story has been building towards this clone-tastic story arc. Written by Saladin Ahmed with art by Carmen Carnero the trailer features all kinds of clones for Miles to combat.
“Part of the magic of telling Marvel stories is not just the sense that these characters occupy the same universe, but they exist across generations,” Ahmed told IGN in a recent interview. “Putting a newer superstar character through some of the same paces a super hero legend went through gives us all sorts of insight into what makes Miles ‘Miles’ as well as what makes him Spider-Man.”
So what’s it about?
The young hero’s world will be turned upside down when he comes face-to-face with three distinct Miles clones, each expertly designed by Carnero. The result of the Assessor’s sinister meddling, these clone creations will spread havoc throughout Brooklyn and Miles is the only hero who can shut them down.
Check out the trailer below.
