And so we
come to my final entry for Spider-man month
When Disney
reacquired the animated rights for Spider-man from Sony, it lead to Spider-man
appearing in The Avengers: Earth’s mightiest heroes. It also lead to the
cancellation of The Spectacular Spider-man, to be replaced by a more in-house
production.
“Based” on
Marvel comics Ultimate Imprint (despite the fact that Peter Parker had long
been replaced by Miles Morales in that imprint) Ultimate Spider-man was the
result. It’s been the subject of infamy amongst fans. Some appraising it’s new
direction and the focus of it integrating it into the Marvel Universe, others thinking it sucks. What do
I think? I’ll get to that later.
Bear in mind, I have not gone over all the episodes of the series for the purposes of this review, I am doing this purely off memory (and limited research) so there may be a few inaccuracies and of course spoilers will follow
