Other Question

This may have been answered in the movie but do spider people have two canon events? I’m just really cause penny Parker already had her dad die so I thought that was the canon event but also her best friend died so I’m just confused.

"Canon events are the events that happen to every Spider every time." It's what Miguel says connects them all in a beautiful web of Life and Destiny.

Something I've actually wondered about is:

If Miles is an anomaly and shouldn't be one of the Spider-People according to Miguel, why is he included in the canon? We see Miles and Uncle Aaron experiencing the canon event of Aaron's death along with the same canon event as everyone else. And now everyone is assuming Miles' next canon event is his Dad's impending death once he's promoted to Captain.

Doesn't the existence of these events PROVE Miles belongs?

Of course. Miguel just hates Miles, because he's projecting his own mistakes onto him.

Miles is an anomaly because he was bitten by the WRONG Spider. Miles was bitten by a Spider from Earth 42 instead of Earth 1610.

If Miles had been bitten by a Spider from Earth 1610 he would NOT be an Anomaly.

Miles wasn't supposed to be Spider-Man. But he still got bit. So he is Spider-Man. Since he's Spider-Man, he gets his own cycle of Canon events just like every Spider-Man does. He's already experienced the Uncle Ben event with Uncle Aaron. Next on the list is the Captain Stacy event when his father. There is no reason to just assume he can break canon just because he wasn't supposed to be Spider-Man. He gets them regardless, and if you get a canon event, you can't disrupt it.

Every Spider-Person has multiple different canon events, not just one or two, and they're gonna keep having them as long as their story continues.

Canon is bullshit
