In addition to the main Spider-People featured inSpider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the post-credit scene gave us one more fan-favorite.Spider-Man 2099, voiced by Oscar Isaac, popped up, leaving a wealth of possibilities for the sequel. The 2099 version of the character is super popular amongst comic book fans and if he returned with a more substantial role with Japanese Spider-Man, and maybe even Tom Holland’s version, people would probably go nuts. Fans were also hoping that Holland’s version of the character was going to pop up for a cameo, but that obviously didn’t end up happening.
