In the latest installment of the Spider-Man franchise, Miles Morales takes center stage as the main protagonist. After being bitten by a radioactive spider from a different universe in the first movie, Miles has spent considerable time as Spider-Man in his version of New York City. In Across the Spider-Verse, he joins forces with a group of 'Spider-People' from various universes to tackle Spider-Man-related anomalies across the multiverse. However, when Miles discovers that this group ensures that all 'canon' events occur in every Spider-Man timeline, including his own father's death, he runs away to save him. This sets off a multiversal chase with almost all the Spider-Verse in pursuit of Miles.

Miles Morales discovers that the Spider-Society is responsible for ensuring that certain events take place in each Spider-Person's timeline. Determined to save his father, who is fated to die in an accident with the villain Spot, Miles flees from the Spider-People. However, in order to return to his own universe, Miles must use the Spider-Society's machine, which sends anomalies back to their respective universes. Unfortunately, the spider that bit Miles was from Earth-42, causing his DNA to be read as such by the machine and sending him to that universe instead. With Miles gone, Earth-42 is left without a Spider-Man to protect New York City from the rampant crime and violence.

Upon seeing Aaron's face and the menacing presence of his uncle, Miles struggled to explain how he had been transported to this alternate universe and his belief that Aaron did not want to be the Prowler. However, fans were taken aback when Aaron denied being the Prowler altogether. As the scene unfolded, a mysterious figure dressed in the Prowler outfit was seen lurking above Aaron and Miles. The figure eventually descended and confronted Miles, asking if his father was still alive in his universe. It was then revealed that the figure was Earth-42 Miles, who had taken on the Prowler persona in his own universe. The episode ended on a massive cliffhanger, leaving fans with countless unanswered questions.
