Miles Morales, the Spider-Man of Brooklyn, joins the 300-issue club next year.
Marvel Comics has announced that March’s Miles Morales: Spider-Man #18 will double as issue #300 (taking legacy numbering into account). Its story comes from current series writer Cody Ziglar. The “giant-sized” issue teams Ziglar with an all-star roster of artists — including regular series artist Federico Vicentini, Miles Morales co-creator Sara Pichelli, Juann Cabal, David Marquez, and more. Vicentini provides the main cover, while Marquez contributes a variant cover.

What to expect from Miles Morales: Spider-Man #300
According to Marvel, Miles Morales: Spider-Man #18 will “serve as a crucial turning point for Ziglar’s current run, as a plot that’s been building since the start comes to its full fruition!” The publisher promises a “grand battle between Spider-Man and his new archenemy — Rabble!”
However, Miles has more than just Rabble to worry about in the celebratory issue. There’s also the “hyper-lethal Cape Killers led by Agent Gao, Scorpion, and Hightail,” who are “gunning to bring Spidey down at all costs.” Fortunately, Miles has some backup in the form of his uncle Aaron Davis/the Prowler and best friend Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel.
An official synopsis for Miles Morales: Spider-Man #18 reads as follows: “Miles Morales is in for the fight of his life! Rabble has stepped from the shadows of ‘Gang War‘ for a rematch, and she’s sworn bloody revenge against Brooklyn’s wall-crawler! But this time, Rabble’s out-of-control powers and desperation have her poised to obliterate far more than just Spider-Man’s life. Don’t miss this thrilling story by sensational lineup of Spider-Creators with fabulous guest stars, twists and turns, and revelations that will send your Spider-Senses reeling!”
“To be completely honest, it’s very surreal to be able to write Miles’ 300th issue,” Ziglar said. “This is a character I’ve been following and rooting for for almost 12 years now. There’s so much crammed into this issue and I’m forever grateful that I have been trusted to continue to carry the torch for Miles after [Brian Michael] Bendis and [Saladin] Ahmed.”
Miles Morales: Spider-Man #18 goes on sale March 27, 2024 from Marvel Comics.
