Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse

Heh, I found a fic on AO3 that had Miguel and Jessica Drew witnessing a dimension which had three young Spideys taking on Doc Ock in a kid-friendly way. (He doesn't intervene despite there apparently being a lack of canon events, the implication that it was a personal choice based on how his late daughter would've reacted at dragging these children into his work)

I wonder if there's any fics of Miles video-chatting with his old friends from the school he used to go to, telling them he misses them and they miss him too, all that bittersweet stuff.

I finally watched the movie and I was wondering something.

So, while the character page theorizes that Miguel injects himself to maintain his powers, I was wondering if it’s to stave off bloodlust/keep his sanity.

I’m not sure how literally we are supposed to take the description of him as a vampire, but he seemed pretty murderous when fighting Renaissance!Vulture and during his fight with Miles.

I think calling Miguel a vampire is just the characters being irreverent with their similes. From what I understand of Spider-Man 2099, he's genetically spliced with a spider and has spider fangs as a result. I believe he can inject poison through them, which presumably is what he was trying to do to Vulture before he was interrupted.

I was wondering if it could be a situation similar to Joaquin Torres in the comics, who was spliced with a falcon but also has vampire powers since the falcon was a vampire. Although AFAIK, Joaquin doesn't have any downsides of vampirism except red eyes.

It also seems kind of suggestive that Miguel is described as a vampire because the villains of Spider-Verse in the comics are The Inheritors, who are a version of vampire.

Not that I think that he's supposed to "really" be Morlun and I find him sympathetic. But still an interesting choice.
