Amazon warriors of Greek myth are robbing Fort Knox! Spider-Woman investigates, and it leads her to… the unrelated Inca Empire in the Amazon of South America? Yikes. As we tackle the cultural insensitivities, the show nicely doubles down on its utter hatred of Jeff and his terrible misogyny. Jeff still sucks!Face of the EpisodeThe horribly pleased face of a creepy man who learned he's been kidnapped.

Over the last decade, Greg Weisman and co. have been answering question after question about what might have happened if The Spectacular Spider-Man hadn't been cancelled, and we're here to go over everything we could find! In this special extra-long Spider-Bite, we discuss and speculate over all the tidbits and breadcrumbs left about what the show could have been, from new villains to unrevealed backstories to Peter and MJ's wedding, and more! Plus, we reminisce over the series as a whole.The Hobgoblin fanart we reference by Fachala86SourcesRemarkage blog compilationOverarching series timeline (Ask Greg)Peter’s marriage to MJ (Ask Greg)Marvel Universe characters/spin-offs (Ask Greg)Flash/Peter boxing match (IGN)Future Plans in CBREddie Brock (Ask Greg)Gene Cleanser (Ask Greg)Spidey Mobile (IGN)Betty & Ned (Ask Greg)Marvel Pop Geeks InterviewSpectacular Radio Episode 1Spectacular Radio Episode 3Spectacular Radio Episode 13This special Spider-Bite is free to everyone!

What’s worse -- an extradimensional demon who stops the moon’s rotation and plunges the world into darkness, or Jeff’s workplace harassment? Spider-Woman has her hands full as she faces off against terrible, awful, toxic Jeff, as well as Dormammu (pronounced no less than three different ways). We have an even harder time understanding why an episode that starts off with robed cultists lighting a pentagram on fire around a giant skull is somehow the most lackluster thing we’ve ever covered.Faces of the EpisodeOnly seems appropriate to include a shot of Dormammu (so why not one where he’s smiling?), and while we’re at it… those blendy paint flames *heart eyes*Jessica’s extremely correct reaction to the aforementioned workplace harassment.

Look, up on the building! It’s Spider-Woman! In 1979, Jessica Drew was the first female Marvel superhero to get her own TV show, and it’s a wild ride! Her debut alone features a massive alien invasion, space mummies, a 60s Spider-Man team-up, jet-copter trips around the globe, and Jessica traumatizing her twelve-year-old nephew by falling out of a helicopter to fake her own death right in front of him. We dig into Spider-Woman’s origins, the inherent racism of ancient alien stories, and why Jeff just...just sucks so, so much.SourcesScienceFiction.comMarvel.comOur Patreon Spider-Woman Commentary Face of the EpisodeSpider-sense? Or having to deal with Jeff’s constant bullshit?

It’s the unintended FINAL episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man, and it’s a doozy! The Green Goblin mystery is in full force in an episode that ties up a few threads while opening up a slew of new ones. We trudge through all the tragedy, heartbreak, and mind-boggling misdirects to determine how it functions as a season finale -- and we have different feelings on where it all lands!“Inside Spidey’s Web” on IGN: https://bit.ly/32odEUKFace of the Episode¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The penultimate episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man spotlights its sprawling supporting cast, as the school play debuts and Spidey battles a slew of fearsome foes...while locked in a maximum security prison! We dig into the weak setup (but solid execution) of this high-concept premise. Plus, puuuurfect Black Cat, a major revelation about Spidey’s origin, and loads of bad-boyfriending from Peter makes this quite a painful adventure!Face of the EpisodeArt.

Episode 69, and it’s called “Subtext”? Nice. Less nice is the awful chain of events leading Mark Allan to become Molten Man. The Spectacular Spider-Man’s Drama 101 arc -- the final arc! -- kicks off with plenty of tragedy, weaving Liz, MJ, Green Goblin, and a creative use of flashbacks into a heartbreaking episode. It’s a lock!Face of the EpisodeNorman's epic side-eye.

A Valentine’s Day dinner, crime boss summit, and date at the opera collide in this brilliant and beautiful episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man! Between the masterfully animated fight sequences scored to classical opera, and the thrilling relationship drama coming to a head, this episode shows off everything this series has to offer. And isn’t it wild that two of the best characters are Liz Allan and Hammerhead?!Face of the EpisodeThis frame looks cute and sweet and funny...if you don't know the very sad context.

Peter is stuck on a police ride along with Sally Avril, and somehow it’s not super annoying! The teens are forced to hash out their drama, and somehow Flash comes out looking the best! Cops seem like they’d be central to this arc, but somehow it’s not super awkward! The Enforcers get fancy new suits, and somehow… they’re still kind of boring. And yet, there’s still lots to love about this episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man!Face of the EpisodeCan we just take a minute to acknowledge Hammerhead’s bone structure?
