Miles Morales: Stranger Tides (Original Spider-Man Graphic Novel)

Product Information

Like Shock Waves, the characters are likeable, some of the art is eye-catching (while some is a little underdeveloped, like Vex suddenly being drawn as a boxy old woman near the end), there's pathos evoking drama, but some of the plot is a little predictable/too easily resolved. Reynolds because Stranger’s outrage at the crime and despair that humans cause is actually relatable. Reynolds is the author of Opposite of Always, Early Departures, and the upcoming Miles Morales: Shock Waves.

Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example. but the graphic novel suffers from the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it emotional ways in which these (temporary) losses affect Miles. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.He hangs out in northeast Ohio with his family and likes it, and is probably somewhere, right now, dancing terribly. L'histoire m'a semblé un peu difficile à suivre en raison des personnages et de la trame des événements, car il semblait y avoir un préalable permettant de mieux comprendre le contexte. It's a good way to make comics accessible to kids who might otherwise be intimated by the sheer volume of Marvel comics there are out there. Representation matters for us and he doesn’t like to read, but he will read these books really quickly! I also found the whole thing very light weight, and he literally punches the bad guy once and it is over.

So much of Miles' responsibilities come down to bucking what his personal desires are (hanging with friends and video games) and sacrificing for the greater good. He is a breath of fresh air, adding nuance and depth to Marvel super-heroes and Stranger Tides will certainly build on that reputation. You guys were so fab and Dawn was such a lovely presence in the schools - I will absolutely be in touch next time I'm in your neck of the woods. I barely remember the girls that Miles has to team up with from the first volume in this mini series (I do remember the guy who also helps), so it took me a moment to catch on to what was going on. Opposite of Always , his debut novel, was an Indies Introduce selection, a School Library Journal Best Book, has been translated in 17 languages, and is being developed for film with Paramount Players.Your selection was perfect for our children and what really made the difference was your ability to engage with each child, discuss their interests and help them to choose a suitable book based on your extensive knowledge of the books you were selling.

Enjoyed this second installment in the series but still confused about how the villain was defeated.L'histoire aborde subtilement des thèmes tels que le deuil et les émotions chez les hommes, et constitue un exemple clair de représentation à bien des égards, ce qui est plus que nécessaire. He’s got really strong powers, which kind of make him boring as a hero, because if he ever gets in a pickle, he can just reverse time with his light speed and beat all the bad guys up. Weaknesses: It's helpful to be familiar with the first book; this was a bit confusing at first even though I had read that one. After Miles learns of his destiny to somehow defeat the Stranger against impossible odds, he… doesn’t really do much until being knocked out by Vex, Trinity’s former best friend, who works for the Stranger.
