Buckle up and get ready to continue or discover the best Marvel saga to date.

When Spiderman appeared in theaters: A new universe (2018) there were mental and emotional sores from the donkey's ride that has been Marvel and its superheroes-unless you're a caffeinator, in which case get it checked out.

More superheroes. More Spiderman. And, moreover... in drawings!

But no. It turned out that we found ourselves with the jewel in the crown. An anime film, lovingly developed, with superb animation, great music and a good script. All the specialized movie sites have surrendered to this Sony production that brings something NEW to what we had been seeing and it was already like eating doughnuts without desire. In addition, the film won Oscars, Bafta, Golden Globes, Critics' Choice and Annie Awards.

Ironically, this is the best thing Marvel has ever done, and it's not even from Marvel. A total triumph that hooks you with story, rhythm and animation. A bath of joy, brilliance and excellence, weaving a tale full of good ideals and values (family, work, duty) without falling into sentimentality.

Introducing a new Spider-Man - it sounds terrible, but it isn't - named Miles Morales, this film saga - the third part of which will hit theaters in 2023 - tells the story of a Spider-Man fan who, through epic twists of fate and a spider bite, becomes Spider-Man.

Combining racial alienation (Morales is Dominican) and class alienation (scholarship in a rich school) with adolescent problems (mythical parallelism with his super heroism) but without falling into cheap moralizing, Spiderman is a breath of joy and fresh air that creates, pays homage, and reaches the pinnacle of cinematic entertainment.
