The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story

The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story is a short film about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies dealing with being Spider-Man. It's about 7 minutes long, so it doesn't have the time to have as much of a story that's in either of the Spider-Verse movies. It's still good for what we have in it. This is at least something to help satisfy us until Beyond the Spider-Verse releases. With that, it doesn't take place between Across and Beyond. It actually takes place between Into and Across, it just released after Across. It does show more development to Miles with him being stressed out being Spider-Man, of which goes with the Kevin Love Fund and the Hero Within Initiative it is going on with. Overall, that makes it a good short film.
