10 Spider-Man Deep Cuts We Spotted In Across The Spider-Verse

Sony's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse has even more cameos, references, and Easter eggs than its predecessor, and many are subtle or brief enough that they're easy to miss. While 2018's Into the Spider-Verse saw a handful of Spider-People travel to Miles Morales' reality after he's bitten by the spider that gives him superpowers, Across the Spider-Verse inverts that premise. Miles goes on an interdimensional adventure that sees him cross paths with the hundreds of similarly powered individuals that make up Miguel O'Hara's Spider Society.
The sheer number of quick references that appear throughout Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is a testament to the attention to detail put into every scene. While characters like Spider-Man 2099 and Spider-Punk are put front and center in Miles' latest story, other characters, events, and visual nods are blink-and-you'll-miss-it in-jokes. These 10 deep-cut references, while subtle, flesh out the world of Across the Spider-Verse like no movie that's come before.
10 Miles' Roommate Reveals New Spider-Man 2 Video Game Footage When Miles briefly chats with his roommate, Ganke is playing what is clearly a Spider-Man video game. However, the specific game isn't immediately clear. While it may have looked like Insomniac's 2018 PS4 game Marvel's Spider-Man, the scene actually featured new footage of the upcoming Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
9 The Sinister Six Has A Name-Only Cameo While Spot is the main villain of Across the Spider-Verse, several other villains have brief appearances. Most of them pop up in the Spider Society headquarters, but the famous Sinister Six appears in name only. While Miles is on Earth-42 at the end of the movie, J. Jonah Jameson can be heard discussing the "Sinister Six Cartel." Also, one of the buildings that make up the skyline has a sign that reads "Rhino Casino."
8 Canon Event Designations Reference Marvel Comics A key plot point in Across the Spider-Verse is the idea of canon events. These moments, positive or negative, are emotionally powerful "plot points" that every Spider-Man has to go through. One of these events is the death of a police captain. Miguel designates this canon event "ASM90." While the name may seem like a random string of letter and numbers, it's actually a subtle reference to the comic Amazing Spider-Man #90, in which Gwen's father, Captain Stacy, dies.
7 Across the Spider-Verse Soundtrack Producer Metro Boomin Appears As A Spider-Man When Miles attempts to outrun all of the Spider-People in the Spider Society, he's chased by dozens of previously established heroes from other movies, shows, and video games. However, the Spider-Man in a black and white suit that incorrectly claims Miles has nowhere to run is an original creation. This Spider-Man is voiced by Across the Spider-Verse soundtrack producer Metro Boomin.
6 One Spider-Man Is A Reference To The Fantastic Four The Spider-Man with a paper bag over his head in the Spider Society headquarters may look odd, but the look is inspired by a humorous Peter Parker moment. In Marvel Comics, The Fantastic Four's Reed Richards separates Peter Parker from his Symbiote suit, but Peter is then left without a costume. To disguise him until he can get a replacement, The Human Torch gives him a spare Fantastic Four suit and a paper bag to cover his head. While the iconic blue suit isn't seen in Across the Spider-Verse, the bag with cut-out eyeholes is unmistakable.
5 A Bagel Billboard References An Oscar-Winning Movie It's easy to make connections between Across the Spider-Verse villain Spot and the 2022 movie (and Best Picture winner) Everything Everywhere All at Once. Oddly, both feature protagonists with origins tied to a bagel. Furthermore, the black, interdimensional bagel in EEAaO seems similar to the titular spots on Spot that threaten to break down the multiverse. The filmmakers were clearly aware of the connection between Across the Spider-Verse and Everything Everywhere All at Once, as a billboard above the villain's apartment shows a bagel and reads, "All of it always all over the place."
4 The Vulture Explains A Morbius Plot Hole Early in Across the Spider-Verse, Miles, Gwen, Spider-Woman, and Spider-Man 2099 fight a huge alternate-universe Vulture resembling a Leonardo da Vinci illustration. While large, flying villain makes for a beautifully illustrated scene, Miguel O'Hara explains that he's there because Kingpin's collider from the previous movies sent random villains to the wrong spots in the multiverse. This finally explains why Michael Keaton's Vulture appeared in the post-credits scene of Sony's Morbius.
