Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
In this sequel to Into the Spider-Verse, we get a little background on Spider-Gwen in her multi-verse world & an intro to the Spider Society along its numerous Spider-individuals before Gwen returns to revisit Miles Morales as he tangles with the Spot. However, when Miles secretly follows Gwen on her new mission, his actions may have disrupted some multi-verse canon & may be unraveling the fabric that connects all of these dimensions together. If you aren’t familiar with the Spider-man multi-verse, this can be a lot to absorb with all of these Spider-individuals & their parallel universes being tossed at you. Not being a follower, I couldn’t keep up with all of the character names or which hyphenated number version of Earth was being visited. It’s action packed & visually simulating. I️ read that a new sound mix version is going to be issued due to audience complaints. I️ may have to rewatch this one. It does end cliff hanger style, so look for the return of Miles Morales in Beyond the Spider-verse & see if he can untangle this sticky mess he gotten himself into.
Alien gives it 3 “Captain must die” stars out of 4.
