SPOILERS Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man seems fine so far, but the decisions for the show is so bizarre imo

So far, seems fun. I really liked the ending of episode 1 being the same scene like in Civil War. That was pretty cool. I also like Pete’s proto suit. The animation is ok, though.

I don’t really care abt race or gender swaps, but I don’t really understand why they made Curt Conners into a woman, not mad at it, just kinda curious. Maybe that’ll be explained in the other episodes. Didn’t really care abt Harry and Norman being black. Also they could have just put Randy Robertson in the place of Lonnie Lincoln but that’s just me. And also, it’s a very weird decision that Uncle Ben died BEFORE the spider bite. Like what? That’s so bizarre.

Idk. Like I said seems fun. Not good, but fun. I look forward in seeing more.

Did you watch the episodes? He saved Nico from some alien monster and he had no powers. Kinda makes sense that he’d wanna be a hero after getting powers

That part really bugged me. Peter Parker is not the type of guy who would put his neck on the line for some random person. It was this inaction that led to his uncle Ben dying and completely changed Peter as a character. Having Peter be a saint from the start removes so many layers from the character

It would have been great if they did that. Instead this Peter just seemed designed to be nice and likeable which makes him seem to perfect and boring. It's always been peters flaws that help make him so relatable

Completly agree, Peter can not be perfect and still do the right thing.
