What we didn’t see coming, though, were two new Spider-Man versions (one of which we definitely didn’t see coming at all). If you stayed seated until after the credits rolled, you were treated to a very special post-credit scene.
Audiences are introduced to Miguel O’Hara, a futuristic Spider-Man known by fans as Spider-Man 2099. This hero takes on the Spider-Man mantle in the distant future.
In the clip, Miguel is on a mission to gather all the Spider-heroes. For what? We’re not sure yet. Perhaps we’ll find out more in a sequel!

As cool as meeting Miguel is, though, he’s not the Spider-Man we’re talking about. Miguel’s first stop is where it all began — 1967. Using a device, Miguel travels to 1967 to the 1967 Spider-Man classic TV series. There we see Spider-Man 1967. Yes, the one from the memes! It’s a hilarious scene that either sets up the sequel or was thrown in just for fun. Either way, we love it!
