This is how it works: A well-known Marvel villain shows up in a pair of extra scenes that are all over the place. Spoilers! 

Marvel’s Morbius came to theaters on Friday. Jared Leto turns into a creature of the night as he tries to cure himself of a rare blood disease. Sony’s Spider-Man spinoff movie also has two post-credits scenes that may make fans wonder what they saw. 

“There isn’t much in Morbius that will make your heart race,” CNET’s Richard Trenholm says in his review. The “obligatory” origin story “dribbles away any interesting ideas and deflates like a leaking plasma drip.” If you’re willing to stay, the bottom is well and truly scraped by a post-credits scene that smells of desperate need. 

How desperate are you? You ask with a smile on your face. Since Disney owns the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this movie isn’t part of it. Sony only owns the movie rights to Spidey and characters who came from Spidey comics, so this movie isn’t part of it (like Morbius and Venom). Disney has been able to use some of them in its MCU movies thanks to a deal with Sony that lets Tom Holland’s Spider-Man show up with the Avengers. 

In a strange twist, Morbius sneaks an MCU character into its last moments. SPOILERS! Let’s eat our way through some juicy ones. 

It’s the Vulture-verse of madness. 

In the movie’s ending, Morbius defeats his fake brother-turned-vampire Milo (Matt Smith) and turns his girlfriend Martine (Adria Arjona) into a vampire, as well. You can begin to earn money now. If you look at the skyline of New York City for a second, you’ll see a purple portal. It was first shown in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and through it, a familiar face shows up in Morbius’ world. 

Adrian Toomes, better known as the Vulture, has been teleported into the Manhattan Detention Facility. Michael Keaton, who plays Vulture, is in charge of the movie, too. This is where we first saw Toomes. He was beaten by Spider-Man and ended up in prison after that. After watching the movie, he found out who Peter Parker was. He decided to keep the information to himself while he was being locked up in the prison. 

I hope this place has better food than the other one, says the guy who’s lived in a comic book world for too long. 

Toomes is expected to be freed right away because he hasn’t been convicted of any crimes in this reality. 

During the credits, Sinister meets someone. 

Drive: Morbius goes to a meeting in the desert. When he gets there, he meets Toomes, who has his full Vulture exo-suit. The person who used to live in the MCU doesn’t know how he ended up in that universe, but he thinks Spider-Man has something to do with it. 

There should be a group of people who work together and “do some good.” Toomes wants to do that. Morbius seems to be interested in this idea. 

What is this all about? 

The first of the two scenes is like the No Way Home and Venom: Let There Be Carnage mid-credits scenes, in that a character is sent to another universe and thinks Spidey is to blame. 

Which is part of the truth. It happened when Loki, the timeline ruler in the MCU Disney Plus show Loki, was defeated. In No Way Home, Spider-Man mixed up Doctor Strange’s spell to make the world forget about Spider-secret Man’s identity, and he brought a bunch of multiversal villains into the MCU. 

Sony seems to be using Vulture’s movie rights to set up the Sinister Six, a group of Spider-Man villains that the studio has been trying to bring to the big screen since Amazing Spider-Man 2 in 2014. This movie hinted that villain Harry Osborn had a group of baddies, but the story was cut off because Sony’s deal with Marvel effectively ended the Amazing Spider-Man series and replaced Andrew Garfield with Tom Holland’s MCU Spider-Man. This movie was about the Amazing Spider-Man series. 

A common post-credits line now is “We’re going to put together a team.” We’ve seen it in many early MCU movies, as well as Justice League, by Joss Whedon, so it’s not new. 

It’s not clear where Morbius is set. 

Morbius is set in the same world as the Venom movies, which Morbius makes fun of when threatening a goon and director Daniel Espinosa confirmed in an interview with CinemaBlend. 

This movie shows that this universe has Spider-Man, but he’s not there. A Daily Bugle newspaper shows that this universe has a Spider-Man. In Spider-Man 3, Tobey Maguire met his own version of Venom. It’s not likely to be that one. In that case, Sony would have to choose between Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man or someone else. Asked by CinemaBlend, Espinosa said that soon, we’ll find out which one it is. 

Why did Vulture end up in Morbius’ world? 

Everyone who was in the movie “No Way Home” knew that Peter Parker is Spider-Man in some other world. Toomes found out about the MCU Spidey, so he was one of the people affected by Strange’s spell. Espinosa said that Toomes’ Vulture suit isn’t the same as the one in Homecoming, but he was able to make one. 

May 6 is when the movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is set to come out. It’s possible that this point will be talked about. 

The Sinister Six is a group of people who are likely to be on this group. 

Before Morbius and Venom and Toomes we haven’t seen many candidates in the Sony world. It’s still true that some of Spidey’s most well-known enemies, like the rhino and the chameleon, appear on the front pages of the Daily Bugle during the movie. 

You can see Rhino and Black Cat in Amazing Spider-Man 2, but we don’t know if they are the ones Morbius talks about. The names on the newspapers could be hidden Easter eggs for people who like the show or the book. 

The fans liked Garfield’s Spidey in No Way Home, so it’s possible that the Amazing Spidey universe will be brought back to life one day. Espinosa, the director of Morbius, also said that we’re going to see a Sinister Six movie. 

Or, if Morbius doesn’t work out, it might all be thrown away. 

When we saw the trailers for Morbius, didn’t we see a poster of Spider-Man? 

What looked like the character played by Tobey Maguire was in the background of a lot of trailers. “murderer” was written on it. A picture from the PlayStation Spider-Man game was used to make this picture. It didn’t make it into the movie’s theatrical release, so it doesn’t count. 

They also showed Toomes and Morbius meeting during a prison transfer, and the most recent trailer hinted that they’d meet in prison, as well There are a lot of signs that the movie changed a lot during the editing process, which isn’t very unusual but may have been made more complicated by the complicated relationships between Sony and Marvel and their different multiverses.
