Im pretty excited for the show. The group who works on the show, Man of Action, also worked on that popular show Generator Rex so I can't wait to see what they do with Spidey.

You know it's sad when even the person who gives the news about it can't stand this show. I for one LOVE the new Ultimate Spiderman cartoon, I don't have a problem with anything about it (not even the teenager aspect). Please don't judge me.

Agreed. I am totally looking forward to this show.

Controversial opinion: Spectacular Spider-Man was not that good. The internet needs to chill it's boner over that show.
The animation was very pretty. That's about it. The dialogue was cheesy as hell - especially in the school. The supporting cast were flat as cardboard. Harry, Gwen, May...You guys were invested in those characters? They were totally bland, in my opinion. I loved a few action scenes and being a die hard Spidey fan, the show gives me plenty to enjoy, but there is plenty of potential for better animated Spider-Man shows.

I know we've seen some sketchy stuff in regard to this new show, but it's also got a lot of talent behind it. Dini and Bendis? **** yeah!

I hope they do Venom justice. From what I saw in the clip, it looked ok. Maybe even Carnage would make an appearance,...um, on second thought...maybe not. How do you incorporate a mass murderer into a kids show.

The 90s series skirted around it...albiet badly.

I don't get people's love affair with Carnage...he's a pretty mediocre villain.

Or maybe you need to accept you're in a worthless minority and live with it. It's obvious you're only saying "Spectacular" sucks to troll.

Spider-Man has always had cheesy dialouge. This is you only now realizing this? Hell Bendis and Dini have ALWAYS written cheesy dialouge for their comics and cartoons, that's not a bad thing either.

As for Gwen, Harry, and May...you're aware they were ALWAYS bland in the comics right? I don't think anybody outside of puritans and 70s fanboys actually give two flying f*cks about any of them. Hell they tried killing May off in the 90s because she contributed f*ck all to the mythology. Depending on what continuity you follow she's STILL dead (Spider-Girl fan)

You know what? Just leave the news to others Raph, you're clearly out to hate the show and your pointless whining is getting on everyone's nerves. Some of us are looking forward to this show

My Spectacular boner will rage forever.

Agreed. But walk into a high school, and their real life dialogue will make you cringe too.

I liked Gwen.

What more do you really want from Aunt May, dude?

Harry wasn't much, but anything you criticize in the character development department, I'll just point to the fact that the show died in season 2 and robbed them from expanding on any characters.

Gwen had to be changed a lot for "Spectacular", because there was just nothing there from the comics. MJ was always the best girl for Peter and the "Spectacular" verison of her has been the best interpretation of her to date. I'm glad she'll be his gal in this cartoon again.

Okay Zarius, your points would be fun to debate, but you lost credibility when you overreacted, so no thanks.


ToTheNines, let your boner stand tall. I should avoid telling people what they should and shouldn't like!

You are right, real highscool dialogue is cheesy as hell, but I still think the show took it a little too far. Liz was the girl who was always yelling in that shrill voice, right? Who can even stand that character? She practically gave me a headache every time she came on screen.
Aunt May has been treated to some great characterization over the years. Bendis' May, for one example, is far more engaging than Spectacular's, who just felt like a clueless old lady.
I agree that Harry's development seemed to be going somewhere.

Yes dialogue was cheesy in the original Spidey-comics and Aunt May was basically written this way too, but I just don't find it enjoyable anymore. It's dated and as much as I respect those earlier issues, I find them flat and boring to read these days. Great ideas and concepts with uninspired execution.

I don't mean to come off on the show too hard. I believe it was picking up the pace and I'm betting season 3 would have been the best one yet. I loved that they tried to serialize the seasons, I love the buttery-smooth animation, and I love Spider-Man! But, when people compare this show to B:TAS, I get a little confused.

I don't think we've gotten our definitive Spider-Man cartoon yet.

This is Liz:

You're thinking of Sally Avril:

I couldn't effing stand her.

I'd say it's almost as good as Batman, but for very different reasons.

I also like Spectacular, and while I am sad it was canceled, I am indeed excited for this new show. Hopefully, this show will be around longer than SS was. I'd hate to see Spidey canceled again, espiacally since he has a new move coming soon.

Im not out to hate the show. I just thought teen Nova looks hilariously awkward in his costume.

I am looking forward to the show tho. Im not just so sure how they'll pull off teen Luke Cage... but *shrugs* I did end up liking Iron Man Armored Adventures and that has teen versions of various Marvel folk (teen Black Panther)

I'll just say that I agree and keep laughing at the way you put it.

Gwen was my favourite aspect to Spectacular. That's the best interpretation of her, yet.

And the voice cast has been announced!

Drake Bell is Peter Parker/Spidey
Chi McBride is Nick Fury
Clark Gregg as Agent Coulsen (reprising his role from the marvel films. He's the principal of Peter's high school)
J.K Simmons as J. Jonah Jamison (reprising his role from the live action spidey films)
Greg "Yeah Im Michelangelo now" Sipes as Danny Rand/Iron Fist
Ogie Banks as Luke Cage
Caitlyn Taylor Love as Ava Ayala/White Tiger
Logan Miller as Sam Alexander/Nova
Tom Kenny as Doctor Octopus
Matt Lanter as Harry Osborn and Flash Thompson

Stan Lee as Stan the Janitor
Adrian Pasdar as Tony Stark/Iron Man (reprising his role from the Anime)

No. Misty is not related to Stan. She's a magician but has done like 2 other animated shows (Garfield and some show called SuperRica). Paul Dini is her hubby.

Looking at the cast list there sure are alot of singers in this show....

The show will premier on April 1st at 11am. There will be another episode at 11:30.
