Shocking Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse Easter-Eggs And References

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse not only had the biggest December launch for an animated movie in history, but it’s also a flawless masterpiece of a movie. The movie, a neon-colored love letter to comic books, unveils the universe to Miles Morales (Shameik Moore), plus a bunch of alternate-universe Spider-Man characters such as Peter B. Parker (Jake Johnson), Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld), Spider-Man Noir (Nicolas Cage), Peni Parker (Kimiko Glenn), and Spider-Ham (John Mulaney).

Spider-Verse‘s acid-trip graphic style, produced by Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman, and Bob Persichetti, is a thrill to watch, so we entirely understand if you missed some of the dozens on a multitude of Easter Eggs, comic allusions, and shout-outs that show up throughout the duration. Nevertheless, just in case you really were interested, we gathered all of the Easter Eggs we could identify. Here’s everything we spotted in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

#1 The Spider-Team

The influx of Spider-People from other realities isn’t exactly a surprise, but they’re all brilliantly lifelike individuals with their own comic book beginnings and backgrounds.

Gwen

Null
Gwen Stacy goes back to the Early Amazing Spider-Man #31 in 1965—she is sadly known best for dying horribly at the hands of the Green Goblin—but the Gwen Stacy of Earth-65, a “What If?” case in which Gwen was bitten by a radioactive spider rather than Peter Parker, first appeared in Edge of Spider-Verse #2, written by Jason Latour and penciled by Robbi Rodriguez.

Noir

Null
The Spider-Man of Earth-90214 was developed in 2009 for the Spider-Man: Noir comic by writer David Hine & artist Carmine Di Giandomenico. Noir’s Peter Parker, a darker version of the character, tackles crime during the 1930s Great Depression.

Peni

Null
Peni Parker of Earth-14512, who first appeared in Edge of Spider-Verse #5 by artist Jake Wyatt and writer Gerard Way, acquired the Sp/dr suit—a robotic machine fueled by a radioactive spider—from her father, who perished in an accident while working as his universe’s Spider-Man.

Ham

Null
It could become a lot weirder. Spider-Ham, real name Peter Porker (of course), is the earliest of the alt-Spideys, initially debuting in 1983’s Marvel Tails Starring Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham by writer Tom DeFalco & artist Mark Armstrong.

Peter

Null
The debut of the Peter Parker who bears the Spider-Man mask in Miles’ universe—voiced by Chris Pine, a well-kept secret—in Into the Spider-Verse is essentially a retread of filmmaker Sam Raimi’s three Spider-Man movies, all featuring Tobey Maguire as the primary webhead. “I protected the city, then fell in love, and then saved it again. Again, and again. Yet again, “Pine’s Spider-Man says.

#2 Movies, TV, and Music

One of the most appealing aspects of animation is the vast number of jokes that can be inserted behind the motion. On Twitter, director Rodney Rothman mentioned that the Spider-Verse producers contacted a few creators to discuss what they’d create in another reality. Here are some of the things we spotted in the Times Square scenes:
• From Dusk Till’ Shaun, Miles’ universe’s take on Edgar Wright’s Shaun of the Dead.
• Hi, Hello, a take on Mulaney and Nick Kroll‘s stage show, Oh, Hello.
• Baby Showers, a version of Paul Feig’s Bridesmaids.
• An ad for “Planet Inglewood”. (Inglewood is not as nice as Hollywood).
• An ad for an app called “Picaboo”, accompanied by the Snapchat logo.
• An R&B star named The Kisslnd, a play on our universe’s The Weeknd.
• A poster for Clone College, apparently a sequel to the short-lived Clone High that our universe deserves.
• A poster of Detroit Pistons power forward Blake Griffin, who apparently now plays baseball for the Boston Red Sox.

#3 Stan Lee

Shocking Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse Easter-Eggs And References

Stan Lee, who died in November, made his usual Marvel Movie cameo for Into the Spider-Verse, appearing as a cashier who sells Miles his first bargain-bin Spider-Man suit. However, as the film’s directors revealed to us, Lee appears throughout the movie. Stan Lee and his dog can be seen walking over Miles and Peter B. Parker as their first wild trip in New York concludes on the city sidewalks.

#4 Alternate Spider-Man Costumes

Shocking Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse Easter-Eggs And References

When Aunt May (Lily Tomlin) leads Peter B. Parker, Miles, and Gwen downstairs into Peter Prime’s underground Spider-lair, you can see containers featuring various Spider-Man outfits worn by the superhero over the years. It’s difficult to notice them all, but we have compiled a comprehensive list:
• The “Advanced Suit” from this year’s Spider-Man game for the Playstation 4.
• The caped “Spidey Suit” from What If #19 imagined a world where Peter Parker stopped Uncle Ben‘s murder.
• The “Electro-Proof Suit” from Amazing Spider-Man #425, the perfect deterrent against long-time Spider-Man foe Electro.
• The bulletproof “MK I Suit” from Amazing Spider-Man #656.
• The costume that Peter wore during the 2004 Marvel crossover event, Secret War.
• The “Iron Spider Suit” originated in Amazing Spider-Man #529 but also made its way to the big-screen on Tom Holland in Avengers: Infinity War.
• The “Stealth Suit”, which, again, first showed up in Amazing Spider-Man #650 but, as we’ve seen, will make a feature-film appearance in Spider-Man: Far From Home.

#5 Villains

Shocking Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse Easter-Eggs And References

Aside from the movie’s Big Bad, the Kingpin of Crime Wilson Fisk (Liev Schreiber), Spider-Verse does an excellent job at presenting long-time Spider-Man adversaries you may not be familiar with.

#6 Alchemax

Shocking Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse Easter-Eggs And References

The Alchemax Corporation, an Amazon-Prime-On-Steroids giant founded by Peter David and Rick Leonardi, is the creator of the spider that bites Miles Morales. The corporation is basically bad news in general, but it’s frequently employed in Spider-Man 2099 storylines.

#7 The After-Credits Scene

Shocking Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse Easter-Eggs And References

The sequence brought us to Spider-Man 2099, alias Miguel O’Hara, who was voiced by Oscar Isaac, a Star Wars actor. The character, created by Peter David and Rick Leonardi for the Marvel 2099 series, is a genius researcher who resides in Manhattan in, you guessed it, the year 2099. O’Hara then travels to Earth-67, the setting for the 1967 Spider-Man cartoon series, where he and the local Peter Parker replicate one of the internet’s most popular memes.
