The Author Of Your Favourite Spider-Man Cartoon Has A New Marvel Comedian Coming [Exclusive Preview]

“Your Pleasant Neighborhood Spider-Man” has now debuted on Disney+ and put an animated Spider-Man again on screens in every single place. I hope that the present is entertaining younger Spidey followers the identical means that the 1994 “Spider-Man” animated collection and “Spectacular Spider-Man” did for my youthful self. Developed by “Gargoyles” creator Greg Weisman, “Spectacular Spider-Man” ran for 2 seasons (26 episodes) from 2008 to 2009. Sadly, the actually spectacular cartoon ended prematurely as a consequence of Sony forfeiting animation rights to Spider-Man again to Marvel.

“Spectacular Spider-Man” stays a fan-favorite, for it is the proper distillation of the character. It basically up to date the unique Lee/Ditko comics for the current day, with the added foresight of having the ability to weave collectively the canonical Spider-Man tales and supporting characters from the very starting, relatively than by many years of trial and error, and numerous completely different writers and artists. For instance, Gwen Stacy and Harry Osborn debuted in “Wonderful Spider-Man” #31, however they grew to become such necessary characters that “Spectacular” made them Peter’s mates to start out with.

Watching “Your Pleasant Neighborhood Spider-Man” is when it lastly sunk in for me that any new Spider-Man goes to fall brief for me as a result of it is no more “Spectacular.” Weisman’s later DC animated collection “Younger Justice” returned from cancellation, however the plug of “Spectacular Spider-Man” stays pulled 16 years later.

In a small comfort prize, although, Weisman is now writing an ongoing Spider-Man comedian at Marvel, “Spectacular Spider-Males” (drawn primarily by Humberto Ramos). That title is certainly referencing the cartoon, nevertheless it’s “Spider-Males” plural as a result of the comedian stars each Peter Parker and Miles Morales. If there’s one city large enough for 2 Spider-Males, it is New York.

“Spectacular Spider-Males” debuted in March 2024 — and Marvel has shared an unique preview of “Spectacular Spider-Males” #12 with /Movie.

The difficulty continues the collection’ second arc, “Unusual Love” (drawn by Emilio Laiso). The story to date has featured Peter and Miles working afoul of the electrifying villains Max Dillon and Francine Frye, whereas mentoring new superhero Juliet Marcos/Elementary (who has powers over the 4 classical parts). The difficulty synopsis reads:

“LEVEL UP! The one factor worse for the SPIDER-MEN than one ELECTRO — is TWO! And this electrifying tag group has LEVELED UP! The Electros aren’t the one SINISTER and SHOCKING SURPRISE in retailer for Pete and Miles… Sssomone ELSE has a bone to choose with the Ssspectacular Ssspider-Males…”

Primarily based on the hissing and solicitations for upcoming points, that another person is the Lizard. See David Baldeon’s cowl for “Spectacular Spider-Males” #12, with the 2 Electros standing triumphant, under:
