“Wait, so, how many of us are there?”

Into the Spider-Verse is the Spider-Man 4 I’ve been waiting for since 2007. This movie is proof that superhero movies can be unique and original, funny and genuinely heartfelt. It’s also a perfect example of why people keep coming to see superhero films, and in particular why Spider-Man resonates with so many people (myself included, as Spidey has been a favorite of mine since the original Rami movie): absolutely anyone can be behind that mask. 

Definitely want to see this one again soon, but a few odd thoughts:

1.) I stopped following the comics before Miles’ character was introduced, but he’s awesome and his take on the costume is dope. 

2.) Cynical old Peter Parker is such a logical progression of established wise-cracking young Peter Parker. 100% on board. 

3.) Maybe the funniest post-credits sequence I’ve ever seen?
