Easter Eggs
Graffiti tribute to Steve Ditko
Throughout the film, the name "Ditko" can be seen in graffiti, such as on the roof of the high school and on a F.E.A.S.T. truck. This is a direct homage to Steve Ditko, the legendary comic book artist who co-created Spider-Man with Stan Lee.
License Plate references Doctor Octopus' first comic appearance
During the bridge scene, the license plate on the MIT administrator's car reads '63ASM3'. This is a reference to The Amazing Spider-Man #3, published in 1963, which featured the first appearance of Doctor Octopus.
Aunt May's Gravestone Inscription
The epitaph on Aunt May's grave reads, "When you help someone, you help everyone." This is the same quote and personal motto used by Aunt May in the 2018 PlayStation video game, Marvel's Spider-Man, where it is also inscribed on her grave.
Cameo of Matt Murdock (Daredevil)
In a highly anticipated moment, Charlie Cox reprises his role as Matt Murdock from the Netflix 'Daredevil' series, acting as Peter Parker's lawyer. This cameo officially integrates his version of the character into the mainline MCU films.
Callbacks to past Spider-Man films
The film is filled with dialogue that directly references moments from the Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield films. Norman Osborn says his famous line, "You know, I'm something of a scientist myself," and Doctor Octopus repeats, "The power of the sun in the palm of my hand."
Reference to Miles Morales
While curing Electro, he tells Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man he's surprised he isn't Black, and says, "There's gotta be a black Spider-Man out there somewhere." This is a direct nod to Miles Morales, a popular Afro-Latino character who takes on the Spider-Man mantle in the comics and animated films.
