In 2011, the character of Miles Morales was introduced to Marvel Comics. But it wasn't until 2018 that the character gained widespread appeal through the release of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse — which went on to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

Aside from being a wonderful addition to the Marvel pantheon, this modern incarnation of Spider-Man is also an excellent example of the Hero's Journey, a storytelling structure written about by Joseph Campbell in his 1949 book "The Hero with a Thousand Faces". This mythic structure has been instrumental in the success of many major comic books and Hollywood adventures — including Star Wars.

In this video, we break down how Miles Morales's Hero's Journey takes shape.
