We need new takes on this characters that have existed forever and this series does just that. It gives one of the more accurate takes on Peter and his quirky personality. The story that surrounds him is intriguing and keeps you invested in all the supporting characters. While Peter/Spider-Man are the shows obvious central focus we get a lot of growth for the other characters that will make up the entirety of the show. Which was great. All the characters felt three dimensionsal and real.

This new animated take on Spider-Man surprises with how well it balances classic style and fresh ideas. The visual design nods to traditional comics, giving it a warm sense of familiarity, but the stories feel modern, with a contemporary spin on character development and conflict. It doesn’t try to reinvent the hero, but it manages to make Peter Parker’s early steps as a teenage Spider-Man feel interesting again. It’s funny, heartfelt, and true to the spirit of the character. It’s not flawless,

Serviceable.
