The ability to manipulate his own bio-electricity has always madeMiles Morales’ power-set unique to his Spider-Man. Still, it’s truly spectacular that the power is continuing to evolve with new defenses against magic. The Ultimate Universe’s Nico Minoru is pretty early on in her superhero career, but it’s still impressive that Miles’ bioelectric sword can protect him from her staff.

While Miles’ bio-electricity commonly materializes as a Venom Blast, an effective burst of energy,Miles has been experimenting with constructs like his Venom-Sabersince early on in Ziglar’sMiles Morales: Spider-Manrun. After getting sword-fighting lessons from Colleen Wing, Miles’ Venom-Saber has become an essential weapon forhis version of Spider-Man, and now it’s even more useful than fans thought.

With his upgraded sword protecting him against magic users, Miles’ clash with the X-Men makes him more prepared to take on themost powerful characters in Marvel’s new Ultimate Universe. His baby sister, Billie, has officially been kidnapped by Earth-6160’s despicable villains, so he’ll likely be using every power he can muster as he faces off with the Maker’s Council.

As his brief clash with Ultimate X-Men’s Nico Minoru shows, Miles Morales’ bio-electricity connection uniquely fortifies him against magic-based attacks. With this newly unlocked ability to faceMarvel’s most powerful magic users, it may be time for Miles’ Spider-Man to either team up with or battle some of the universe’s supernatural characters.

Miles may be able to defend against magic, but he’ll have to hope that he’s also prepared to face Earth-6160’s evil version of the X-Men’s Magik, since she has his baby sister now. WhileMiles Moralesreveals unusual powers for aSpider-Man, it’s his deep sense of responsibility for his sister that truly drives his evolution as a hero.
