Peter faces a big man called Rhino and The Big Man called Tombstone in the finale of the Economics arc! We get into the Daily Bugle staff – from a heroic J. Jonah Jameson to the conclusion of the awkward Betty Brant crush – along with Aunt May as a master manipulator, Harry Osborn’s nonsensical sinister asides, and the perfect introduction of Mary Jane Watson.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 6: “The Invisible Hand”.

Flint Marko gets naked and Peter Parker gets into football as our spoiler-filled revisit of The Spectacular Spider-Man continues! We get sand in all the unmentionable places as we dig into the body horror of the Sandman transformation, the cringe horror of Peter continuing to alienate all his friends, and the psychological horror of Harry Osborn’s dead-eyed, silent, possibly disassociating mother sawing her steak.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 5: “Competition”.

Throw on your cowboy hat and call us hoss! The Economics 101 arc of The Spectacular Spider-Man begins its parade of street-level villains and pulls one of the show’s cleverest moves – putting rootin’ tootin’ Montana in the Shocker costume, and turning two “meh” villains into one very fun one. We talk about the Daily Bugle cast (and Peter’s awkward teenage flirtation with 20-year-old Betty), Shocker as a true sociopath, Harry’s start of darkness, and more.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 4: “Market Forces”.

For the SERIES FINALE of Spider-Woman, author Shawn Pryor (Kaiju Unleashed) joins us to talk about one last alien invader, one last Star Wars villain, one last bizarre plot, and one last instance of Jeff being the worst! As our beloved heroine faces her first woman villain–a Darth Vader/Freddy Krueger combo who puts people to sleep and attacks them in their dreams!--we bid adieu to the most fun show we’ve ever covered. Good night, Spider-Woman!

We’re watching Spider-Woman: Season 1, Episode 16: “A Deadly Dream”.

Dr. Connors took The Substance, and it results in a body horror-filled creature feature and one of The Spectacular Spider-Man’s best episodes! We get into why the simple character designs allow for more grotesque and violent sequences (The Lizard almost bites off Spider-Man’s head…twice!). Plus, yet another banger train fight, the true debut of depressed death-seeker Eddie Brock, and Peter Parker alienating all his loved ones so early in the show.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 3: “Natural Selection”.

The sparks are flying as our spoiler-filled revisit of The Spectacular Spider-Man sees the origin of two electrifying, tragic, and surprisingly compelling stories reinvented for this series – Electro, and Liz Allan’s crush on Peter Parker! We talk about this rightfully-resentful Electro, what makes the Peter/Liz relationship so fascinating, how Spider-Man learns not to kick first and ask questions later, along with all the setup and foreshadowing for Eddie Brock’s sanity, Curt Connors’ negligence, and more.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 2: “Interactions”.

Tell us there’s something better… than The Spectacular Spider-Man! We’re revisiting the entirety of our favorite Spider-Man show again from the beginning with full spoilers, and it begins with this whirlwind of a premiere! We talk about the show’s origins from creators Greg Weisman and Victor Cook, along with how this episode elegantly interweaves every element of Peter Parker’s life – from the high school drama with Gwen, Harry, and the bullies, to an internship with Dr. Connors and not-yet-evil Eddie Brock, to the Daily Bugle, to Oscorp and Vulture’s vendetta against never-apologizing Norman Osborn, to the Big Man and his Enforcers, to Aunt May’s banana cream pie. This episode is PACKED, and it only gets better from here!

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 1: “Survival of the Fittest”.
