We’re covering the newest animated Spider-Man as it airs, and we like it! The premiere offers us a new Spidey origin, a hockey costume, Norman Osborn as a mentor, and a slew of deep cuts and unexpected characters. We talk about the pros and cons of the unique Romita-inspired visual style, along with the exciting shades of Spectacular Spider-Man, the unnecessary multiversal opening (and why it’s good that this show is freed from the MCU), Colman Domingo’s beautiful voice, and more! And yes, this show IS woke, actually.

We’re watching Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 1: “Amazing Fantasy” and Episode 2: “The Parker Luck”.
