Playing off the multiverse fanaticism and superhero craze prominent in today’s pop culture, SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE burst onto the scene to critical acclaim, defining a new generation of hybrid animation. Lauded for its visual dynamism and technological innovation, the film took a big swing on aesthetics that successfully brought comic book pages to the silver screen— caption boxes, off-set ink lines, and BOOM!s included.
SPIDER-VERSE follows Miles Morales, an Afro-Puerto Rican teen from Brooklyn, who must embrace his new web-slinger identity and team up with other multidimensional Spider-People to stop Wilson “Kingpin” Fisk’s world-destroying collider.
