Starling

A fresh face from the cutting edge of Modern Age Marvel, Starling made their debut in 2023's Miles Morales: Spider-Man #1, brought to life by the creative team of Cody Ziglar, Sophie Watine-Viévard, and Federico Vicentini. With only a handful of catalog appearances so far, this is a character right at the beginning of their story — sharing pages with Miles Morales himself, Tiana Toomes, and even the fearsome Scorpion, which tells you the stakes are already high. Their presence across both Miles Morales: Spider-Man and Carnage Règne suggests a figure with range, comfortable in both street-level drama and something considerably darker. For collectors who love getting in on the ground floor, Starling is exactly the kind of emerging character worth watching.
