Marvel Comics has revealed a new spin on What If…? is on the way and it features Miles Morales like you’ve never seen him before. In fact, it features Miles Morales in many ways you’ve never seen him before as the new series will reveal what Miles Morales would be like if he followed in the footsteps of Marvel heroes other than Spider-Man. Written by Cody Ziglar–who is part of the Amazing Spider-Man creative team–with art by Paco Medina, the series will launch in March 2022.
“I’m a supreme Miles stan and life-long Cap truther, so being asked to helm the kick off of this What If? series was a dream come true,” Ziglar said in a statement sent to AIPT. “Simply can’t wait for folks to see our boy Miles yeet’ that shield and how he handles the mantle of Captain America.”

What if…Miles Morales had never been bitten by a genetically enhanced spider and became Spider-Man? What if instead…the U.S. government recruited, trained, and granted him incredible powers with the Super-Soldier Serum? What makes Miles a hero no matter the circumstances, no matter the reality?!
