Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse’s Plot Has A Perfect Solution Thanks To The Comics

Okay, so everyone was reeling from that Across the Spider-Verse ending, right? It was a total cliffhanger! As a long-time Spider-Man fan, I can tell you it sent the fanbase into overdrive, desperately wanting to know what happens next with Miles. Thankfully, it looks like the filmmakers might have a really clever solution to wrapping things up, and they’re drawing inspiration directly from the comics – which is always a good sign. We’ve been waiting for Beyond the Spider-Verse for what feels like forever, and I’m hoping it delivers a satisfying conclusion.

The release of Beyond the Spider-Verse has been delayed several times to allow the filmmakers to finish the story properly. Across the Spider-Verse was incredibly innovative in its storytelling and visuals, so the next film needs to be even more ambitious and groundbreaking to achieve the same level of success.

The movie is currently planned to come out in 2027, and early images suggest it will be an exciting end to the Spider-Verse trilogy. It’s expected to be the most heartfelt film in the series, focusing on Miles teaming up with heroes from different universes to prevent his father’s death.

The movie needs to explain how Miles can save his dad without destroying his universe. As shown in Across the Spider-Verse, Miguel O’Hara (Spider-Man 2099) made it clear that changing important events can have disastrous consequences, causing an entire universe to collapse.

A significant Spider-Man comic book came out a year after the movie was released, and it suggests exciting new possibilities for how the story might conclude with Beyond the Spider-Verse.

Uncle Ben Is Alive In Ultimate Spider-Man (2024), Breaking A Serious Canon Event

The recent reboot of Marvel’s Ultimate Universe kicked off with a surprising twist in Ultimate Spider-Man #1. Written by Jonathan Hickman and illustrated by Marco Checchetto, the comic revealed that Uncle Ben is alive and well in this new universe. He’s a journalist at the Daily Bugle and has a significant impact on Peter Parker’s life as an adult.

This was a major change to established Marvel lore, because Uncle Ben’s death is usually seen as the defining moment that creates Spider-Man. The movie Across the Spider-Verse even highlights this with a scene showing many different Spider-People paying respects to their deceased uncles. It’s widely considered the most important part of Spider-Man’s backstory, and many fans believe it shouldn’t be altered.

Despite this trend, Ultimate Spider-Man took a different approach and became one of the most popular Spider-Man versions in recent times. Viewers particularly enjoyed the fresh take on Peter Parker’s story, largely because it kept his Uncle Ben alive.

If Spider-Man 2099 Discovers Uncle Ben Is Still Alive, It Could Change His Way Of Thinking

What makes the Spider-Verse movies so clever is that they treat every Spider-Man story as officially part of the timeline. Whether it’s from the comics or video games, anything with Spider-Man is considered canon in this vast multiverse. Because of this, if the next film, Beyond the Spider-Verse, references a major plot point from Ultimate Spider-Man, it could drastically change how we understand Spider-Man 2099’s beliefs.

Miguel O’Hara firmly believes that altering key events in the Spider-Verse will destroy universes, and ultimately, the entire multiverse. This is confirmed when the universe of Spider-Man India starts to collapse after its hero’s captain is rescued.

If Miles encounters another version of himself from a different universe, it could trigger a pivotal moment where he investigates why that universe still exists. This investigation might uncover a way to protect universes that defy established rules, potentially allowing Miles to save his father.

Since this movie began production around the time Ultimate Spider-Man came out, we might see this version of Peter Parker appear. If he does, it could drastically alter the ending of Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. This version of Spider-Man from Earth-6160 could challenge established storylines and undermine Miguel O’Hara’s reasons for wanting to preserve the current state of things.
