Ultimate Spider-Man: The Animated Series?!
Tuesday, April 13th, 2010
The comic series following a teenage Peter Parker is coming to a TV near you in 2011!
Marvel Entertainment just announced it has greenlit a new Spider-Man animated series, this time based on the mega successful Ultimate Spider-Man by Brian Michael Bendis and artists Mark Bagley, Stuart Immonen, and David Lafuente. It will premiere in fall 2011 on Disney XD.
First seeing publication in 2000, Ultimate Spider-Man was meant to make the character more “new reader friendly” by ditching the 40 years of continuity, and bringing the character back to its roots as a teenage superhero. The animated series will “chronicle Peter Parker’s transition from a wise-cracking teen to a hero with a definite sense of responsibility who can hold his own with other Marvel superheroes who will join him in this series of animated adventures”.
Can.
Not.
Wait.

sounds good…but then all new spiderman sounds good.
Is The Spectacular Spider-Man over then?
Yeah… it was an unfortunate casualty of the Disney/Marvel merger. Great to have two awesome seasons however. And Ultimate Spider-Man can only be amazing.
I’m bummed about Spectacular Spider-man being canceled but am excited about this.
And how catchy was that theme song for Spect. Spider-man? :)
