News of the new Miles Morales action figure comes just days after Marvel Comics teased that the new Spider-Man will face off with a new hybrid of Venom and Carnage in an upcoming issue. Promotional art by Ryan Stegman, shared exclusively by CBR, depicts the Venom/Carnage hybrid balancing on cables with its tongue extended. While no details about the plot have been revealed, the filename for the art lists it as being a teaser for "Dark Ages" and "Miles Morales," which means the meeting between Miles and the hybrid could be an upcoming tie-in to the event first introduced in FCBD 2020 X-Men #1.
It was also recently revealed that the Miles Morales character appears as an Easter egg inside Disney California Adventure's Avengers Campus. Specifically, Miles' name appears as part of a graffiti design within the campus, which Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Kevin Feige described as a "living, breathing space that will grow and evolve as our cinematic universe grows and evolves — with new props and new characters assembling here at Avengers HQ."
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales was released in November 2020 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. The game serves as a spinoff of PS4's 2018 Spider-Man game and follows Miles as he learns what it takes to become his own Spider-Man. Developed by Insomniac Games and PlayStation Studios, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is available on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
The Marvel Legends Series Gamerverse 6-inch Spider-Man: Miles Morales Figure retails for $22.99 and is available for pre-order now at GameStop.com. It's expected to ship on Oct. 1.
