Spider-Man #6

   The issue opens with Fabio telling Miles to not be mad at Ganke for spilling his secret. The two of them sit discussing the hardships of being a superhero while Jessica Jones sits across the street photographing everything. She takes meticulous notes about Miles being an Avenger, talking with Goldballs, and having a secret identity before being ran off by the school principle. Later he sits in his dorm when Ganke comes in lamenting the woes of being a teenager in love. Suddenly Miles phone rings. Tony Stark tells him to meet outside.
   High above the city, Iron Man explains to Spider-Man that there's going to be a way over the Inhumans' Ulysses, the Ultimates, and everyone in between. Tony tells him this guy just gives his interpretation of a dangerous future and Captain Marvel is running with it.. Hoping to swing Spidey's support to his side, they agree to followup.  Meanwhile, Miles' mother talks with his dad about her mothers' incessant meddling. She hired a private investigator and she's determined to end the surveillance.
   Ms. Morales goes to the office of Jessica Jones and offers to pay her off. Jessica explains that she isn't at liberty to cancel her contract, and somehow during their conversation, Miles' mother is convinced she knows something. She tearfully asks Jessica to reveal her son's secret and with that, we're left to be continued.
   Pretty good issue. I know Miles Morales is supposed to be the modern day urban take on Peter Parker and I get the vibe some of these stories are meant to mimic their classic counterparts. Thaqt being the case, Bendis does well to imagine the superhero in a different light and it certainly makes for interesting reading. I give this one an 8/10.
