We like to have a little bit of fun, we like to be a little bit meta and to acknowledge the world in which we are creating these stories. Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige had nothing to do with Across the Spider-Verse, so this can’t quite be considered an “official” link between the two films, and indeed, one of the film’s directors, Kemp Powers, told SFK Magazine, of the Doctor Strange mention, “The world of Miles Morales and Spider-Verse, it’s not tied into the Marvel Cinematic Universe or anything like that. Iman Vellani on what she believes to be the correct MCU number | #MsMarvel Special Launch Event /tAriPGb0BZ Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness complicated matters by having the MCU’s prime universe called 616 onscreen as well, but Miguel is arguably using the proper name here – just ask Ms. The central Marvel comic book universe has always been referred to as the 616 universe, and Earth-199999 is the designation given to the MCU in the larger multiverse. This one was revealed in one of the trailers for Across the Spider-Verse, but still, it’s hard not to take notice when Miguel O’Hara, bemoaning his job trying to fix the multiverse, yells to Gwen Stacy, “Don’t even get me started on Doctor Strange and the little nerd back on Earth-199999!” in what is an obvious reference to Spider-Man: No Way Home. Strange’s Way Home Benedict Cumberbatch and Tom Holland in Spider-Man: No Way Home (which Miguel seems to know all about)
So while there are many, many more great Easter eggs in the film – including some I’m sure have yet to be ID’d – here are a few of the highlights. Still, there were a few moments that are particularly notable because they go beyond the fun of seeing so many versions of Spider-Man himself and operate on other levels, reaching into so many different facets of Spider-Man’s long history, across comics, animation, live-action, and video games.
