SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE starts off with narration from Gwen Stacy. After her Peter Parker dies, she joins Miguel O'Hara's elite squad of Spider-People who help protect the multiverse from dangerous threats and anomalies. One of Gwen's assignments leads her to the Earth where Miles is now a year older, dealing with how to balance his responsibilities as a student and a son with his duties as the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. He keeps having to lie to his parents about why he's late to or absent from important events. For example -- he nearly misses a family meeting with his school counselor because a villain dubbed the Spot wants to defeat Peter. Gwen's visit (her first since the events of the first film) confuses Miles, who uses his invisibility powers to follow her to another Earth, where Spider-Man India needs protection from the multiverse-hopping Spot. After Miles unintentionally triggers a catastrophic event, he's summoned to the Spider-Person HQ, where he reunites with Peter B. Parker and meets a new crew of cool Spideys but discovers he's not as welcome as he'd hoped. - Common Sense Media
