While "Marvel's Spider-Man" elects to jump right into the good part, the show is still firmly grounded in the hero's story, taking a whole new approach to the saying "with great power comes great responsibility" for a new generation of cartoon viewers, as Den of Geek notes.
To celebrate the launch of the new Spider-Man, who's still in his makeshift costume and gadgets, Disney XD has released the series online on YouTube, for everyone to watch — well, almost everyone, that is, as Disney XD has blocked the video for a few regions for some reason.
As a show that focuses on Parker's high school life, "Marvel's Spider-Man" took some liberties to make a few tweaks to Spider-Man's teen life. For one, Parker is enrolled in a school that's a bit out of the ordinary, as revealed by the first episode's summary.
"Peter is accepted into Horizon High: a school for geniuses, where his best friend Harry Osborn was just suspended," the synopsis for episode 1 mentioned, as quoted by Comic Book.
"Peter makes his debut as Spider-Man and must battle the Vulture," the plot brief adds, bringing over a theme from the latest Marvel "Spider-Man" movie to the new series.
The video below shows a sneak peek at the new "Marvel's Spider-Man," now showing on Disney XD.
