Into the Spider-verse might share a name with the Spider-verse comic crossover. But the two stories don't have much else in common. For one thing, big villains of the comic book crossover are the inheritors, a Family of sadistic vampires who prey on the life-force of multiversal Spider-men.
As you can tell from that description alone, they were probably just too complicated to use as the villains for Into The Spider-verse. Or maybe the filmmaker wanted to save them for a possible sequel. In fact, them showing up in a sequel would certainly be dangerous enough to get the spider-gang back together. At the end of the film, we see Miles reveals his identity to his private schoolmates. A character whose name never actually learn.

Still, his roommate does bear a passing resemblance to Ganke, Miles' best friend from Comics. Ganke's visual look and personality were repurposed into Ned Leeds in Homecoming. So maybe the filmmakers were trying to show the original character some love.
Or maybe Miles just figured, he owed the truth to his roommate.

Like its live-action counterparts, Into the Spider-verse makes sure it's worth it for audiences to wait until after the credits.
The post-credit scenes feature Miguel O'Hara, a.k.a. The Spider-Man of the distant year 2099. Miguel mentions that he is going to go back to the beginning and transport himself to Earth-67, the home of the Spider-Man cartoon of the '60s.

The scene that unfolds between Miguel and the '60s cartoon Spider-Man is hilarious. But the question arises, why Miguel bothered to do this at all. Is it possible that the Post-credit scene represents Spider-man 2099's first effort to recruit a spider-army to face the looming threat of Inheritors?
Or maybe he just wanted to Learn from the best.
Or maybe we should assume, it was just a gag and not think too hard about it.

The main universe in Into the Spider-verse most closely resembles the reality inhabited by Marvel's now-defunct ultimate line of comics. Villains like Prowler and Green Goblin more closely resemble the ultimate versions of the characters, and of course, Miles Morales first appeared in the Ultimate Comics.
But The Miles didn't stay in the ultimate universe.

As Part of the line-wide event Secret Wars, the ultimate universe was destroyed, and Miles became a part of prime Marvel Earth, the place that the majority of our favorite Marvel characters call home.

So what, if anything, could this mean for the main universe of Into the Spider-verse?

On one hand, there's no Reason any follow-up films have to show the comics in any specific ways. On the other, it seems strange that we now have a popular and lucrative Marvel Franchise that seems to be set in a world that no longer exists in the comics.
Does this mean that the ultimate universe will be resurrected in the Marvel comics?
Or will Mile's universe be threatened with destruction once again?

One of the most subtle mysteries of Into the Spider-verse isn't how Miles Morales became Spider-Man, but rather why?

Miles is bitten by a radioactive spider that's going through the same glitching that effects the alternate Spideys.
That suggests that spider who bites Miles is also from an alternate Earth.
But how does the spider arrived there, and what time?

The supper-collider event that brings the alternate spideys to Mile's world happens after Miles is bitten by the Spider.
The Likeliest explanation is that, like Gwen Stacy and most of the other Spider-folks, the irradiated arachnid traveled not only across dimensions but into the past.
