![]() ![]() Dramatically Missing the Point: The sad truth about the Spider-Society's enforcement of Canon Events is that it demands that they can't step in to stop the deaths of anyone important to each Spider-Person, when the whole mantra of being Spider-Man is to never knowingly allow someone to suffer or die because of inaction.Even worse is that these events are so formative to who they are as people that Miguel has them labelled as Canon Events, meaning that even the Spider-People who know that someone they're close to is destined to die can't do anything to stop it without threatening the stability of the multiverse. Death by Origin Story: Countless numbers of Spider-People have at the very least lost Uncle Ben or some equivalent if not other people that were important to them.Deadpan Snarker: No matter what universe they come from, EVERY Spider is a quipster.Dark and Troubled Past: All of them have experienced some of the "Canon Events" mentioned by Miguel, tragic failures which turned them into the people they are now.Canon Foreigner: Many, if not most, of the members of the Society were made up for this film, mostly to fill out the large area they reside.They're a secret army of spider-themed heroes that defend the Multiverse, but under Miguel's leadership, they also are meant to safeguard the sanctity of " Canon Events" that supposedly maintain the integrity of time and space. Spider-Man as a character was built on the concept of never knowingly letting another person suffer, even if saving them causes problems later on. Became Their Own Antithesis: Their fears of destabilizing the multiverse by interfering with Canon Events has essentially caused them to unknowingly go against everything they stand for as Spider-People.Animal-Themed Superbeing: Take a wild guess.Ambiguous Situation: How many members of the Spider-Society are aware that their goal of keeping the multiverse safe through maintaining Canon Events means they have to allow innocents to die and even prevent Miles from preventing his father's death? Spider-Man India was noticeably Locked Out of the Loop, implying the same could be true for other heroes while only a certain amount were informed of the truth, but that might have been because he was a Naïve Newcomer in comparison to the rest.* Word of God said that there are 280 different Spider-People in Across The Spider-Verse. Tons, possibly hundreds, of Spider-People from different universes make up the Society. Alliance of Alternates: Even more so than the Spider-Gang.This means that the Spider-People had been enabling the murders of countless people they cared about for nothing. All for Nothing: At the end of Across the Spider-Verse, Gwen finds out that Miguel's Canon Event theory isn't as binary as he initially believed, as her father managed to avert his predetermined death by resigning as police captain without her universe collapsing.This is especially glaring given that among their ranks are versions of Peter Parker who work closely with the versions of Miles in their own universe as allies or proteges. ![]() ![]() Adaptational Villainy: As unsavory as some of their members could be in the comics, such gatherings of Spider-People as a whole were never party to what are essentially cosmic assassinations through their enforcement of Canon Events, which includes allowing the death of Officer Jefferson Morales. ![]()
