An Ingenious Theory Explains the Multiversal Differences Between the MCU and the Spider-Verse

The conversations between the MCU and the Spider-Verse started as soon as Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse spread its multiverse wings and showed the comic book industry what it thought of multiple universes existing at the same time and in different times, through portals and other worlds creating havoc on the storytelling that future generations will have to weave through. There are a variety of theories being discussed across the inter-verse but this particular one boils down to a difference of opinion about glitching.
Glitching is an unintentional byproduct of the Spider-Man game – a digital burp gamers experience from time to time when a character appears to be going through some static disruption. One gamer actually posted a video clip where he had been turned into a patio heater and that’s where great minds behind the making of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse got the idea to include glitching in the film if they were ever going to do right by it.
Of course, the fans immediately fell in love with it and ran with some humorous tweets of their own.
He was the light in the darkness, the warmth in a cold night, but when the world needed him most, he vanished.

A play on the name Peter Parker comes through right on time.
Gotta be Heater Parker

The jokes kept coming, ever more cleverly giving a clear welcome to the idea of glitching in the film.
I said keep on shining and he was like, you don’t even know

However, someone was just waiting patiently to bring some theory to the discussion and why the MCU doesn’t experience glitching.
One fan was quick to point out that multiversal travel isn’t always achieved via magic in the MCU.
If that true explain Kang then who uses tech

The OP had a quick and decisive answer to come back with.
He’s from the 31st Century. Easy.

It’s not really a difference of opinion but more of an explanation for why the theory actually works.
Honestly, I’d just assume that the glitching was a side-effect of the brute-force, highly dangerous method Kingpin had Ock build for him – it’s not that other methods are immune, more that the version Kingpin had built was highly flawed.

It looks as if the Spider-Verse is having fun with it while the MCU might be taking the multiverse expansion a little more seriously. Either way, there is no end to stories that can be told simply through the creation of the multiverse itself and that’s something fans should find exciting no matter what.
