Sure, a few Avengers are suspicious of Superior Spider-Man and get roped into an action-packed plan to stop M.O.D.O.K. But the real meat here is cyber Peter Parker venturing through Otto Octavius’s memories of childhood abuse. It’s very upsetting! We talk about how this show handles darker and realistic subject matter, why these Avengers land with a thud, and… why aren’t Miles and Kamala hanging out?!  We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 17: “A Troubled Mind”.

Spider-Man fights…a colonizer?! Tyler from ⁠Fear Coded⁠ joins us for this international adventure where Peter Parker gets stranded in a secret city of gold warbirds, active volcanoes, and giant bugs. While it doesn’t get everything right (the Aztec empire was nowhere near the Andes and you can’t go UP whirlpools) it does correctly make a conquistador the unambiguous bad guy!  We’re watching Spider-Man (1967): Season 2, Episode 12: “Cloud City of Gold”.

The Superior Spider-Man arc continues as Otto does a terrible job imitating Peter Parker, a violent job of handling villains like Sandgirl, but a great job at making Miles suspicious and quitting Horizon. Meanwhile, the real Peter’s digital consciousness tries to save himself from deletion, and we talk about the many missed opportunities of this virtual world. Also… Big Wheel mentioned?! We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 16: “Critical Update”.

Peter Parker is back! Or, well… his body is, at least. We’re finally digging into 2017’s adaptation of The Superior Spider-Man as Otto Octavius gets used to his new superpowered body, unmasks himself to learn the identity of his nemesis Spider-Man, and reckons with the reality that Peter Parker’s memories, experiences, and emotions are now his as well. Also, prepare for a hefty tangent discussing how various versions of Otto Octavius smell! It’s important! We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 15: “My Own Worst Enemy”.

The title isn’t lying – Peter Parker/Spider-Man does not appear in this episode for even a second, and our other Spider-Folks finally take center stage! We return to the 2017 cartoon after way too long as Gwen Stacy seeks to regain her powers and become Ghost-Spider proper, while Miles Morales tries to mentor Anya Corazón on friendly neighborhood spidering. All that, plus a silly lil Tinkerer and a big kaiju Scorpion! We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 14: “The Day Without Spider-Man”.

A kaiju cat with paralyzing eyes? A wizard with magical energy powers? An electronic werewolf? …Or were-cat?! Raymond Strife from The Aging Punks joins us for the most incoherent episode of the 60s Spider-Man show, where a green-skinned Burl Ives-inspired magician named Pardo sends out his eye-beam-shooting giant black cat that…might be a robot? Or an energy being? Or Pardo himself? We talk about the hilariously egregious repeated sequences and frozen audiences, and how every act of this bizarre episode seems to be written by a different person.  We’re watching Spider-Man (1967): Season 2, Episode 11: “Pardo Presents”.

We say farewell to Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends… and hello to Iceman’s sister, Lightwave! In the final episode, the Spider-Friends get swept up in a S.H.I.E.L.D. plot with aggressive brainwashing, a defense satellite, and a very serious Bobby Drake. As their adventure ends, we talk about how we fell in love with this show and what could’ve been had it continued. We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 3, Episode 8: “Mission: Save the Guardstar”.

Firestar’s ex exacts revenge on the ex-X-Man and the X-Men! X-fan Manicorn uses his mutant powers to guide us through this backdoor pilot for an X-Men cartoon that never was, featuring a cyborg villain who turns the X-Mansion into a deathtrap. We get into the team’s roster and how this episode responded to the concurrent comics, Xavier the huge dick, beautiful manly Colossus and mankini-clad Nightcrawler, Firestar straight-up murdering a guy, and of course everyone’s favorite X-Men location: The Maze of Madness!

Last year Derek literally fled the country to get away from the Kraven the Hunter movie, but Doug persisted and convinced Glitterjaw’s own Gavin & Tyler to see it! In this re-released Patreon episode, we talk all about whether Aaron Taylor-Johnson makes a good Kraven, why Ariana DeBose needs to fire her agent, who exactly the Foreigner is, how literally anyone’s superpowers are supposed to work, and of course, the oasis in this desert of a film: big boy bear era Russell Crowe. Want to hear Derek FINALLY forced to watch the movie and get his live reactions? Check out our brand new Patreon commentary!

Ever explore the attic of an abandoned house and discover a flower kaiju and a time machine? Chris from Every Spider-Man Ever joins us for the 60s cartoon’s prehistoric adventure, where Spidey goes to 3 million B.C. to get radium gems and then decimates an entire species of sentient plant people. We talk about all the weird little freaks and their cool designs, and question who’s the bigger villain: Master Vine or Peter’s friend Jackie? We’re watching Spider-Man (1967): Season 2, Episode 10: “Vine”. Check out Every Spider-Man Ever on YouTube! Support Chris on Patreon!

We all know Mary Jane and Gwen Stacy, but remember the other love of Peter Parker’s life… Ariel from outer space? It’s love at first sight between Peter Parker and an alien from the far future in this this silly but sincere tragic love story, which includes an astrology party populated by furries, Doc Ock’s severed tentacle, lots of passionate deep kisses, and of course, our new best friend the Nebu-crab.

YOU DEMANDED IT! The Amazing Friends crew and Stan Lee answer fan mail and explain the big questions we all had about the Spider-Friends in this flashback episode, including: How did the Spider-Friends meet? Why do they all live with Aunt May? Where did they get that high-tech crime computer system they rarely use? The question it DOESN’T answer: Why do The Beetle and Tony Stark sound like that?  We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 3, Episode 5: “The Origin of the Spider-Friends”.

Don't inhale that gas or your friends might think you've gone mad and get you thrown in a supervillain prison! A case of mistaken identity causes a riff in the Spider-Friends in this incredibly well-written and well-plotted episode, complete with a spider-centaur, a Matt Murdock appearance, and Iceman's Letterboxd reviews. We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 3, Episode 4: “Attack of the Arachnoid”.

Take to the stage as we cover Spidey’s infamous Broadway rock musical – from the myth of Arachne to U2 songs to Goblin’s defeat by piano! Rise above the disastrous production of boys falling from the sky and the clashing egos of this freak company as we figure out how Turn Off the Dark actually works as a Spider-Man adaptation. We’re bouncing off the walls to sing about the inconsistent designs, the strangest Sinister Six you’ll ever see, a Southern Elvis-impersonating Green Goblin, a spectacle of wirework, cut songs about shoes, a deep connection with The Lion King, and much more until that curtain call!

Videoman is back! And he’s a…superhero? Whose alter-ego is an incel nerd who sucks?? We talk about the first of two backdoor pilots for an X-Men show – this one bafflingly about turning the endlessly cool Videoman into a character no one can root for, and his fight against the hypnotic game-themed villain The Gamesman.  We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 3, Episode 3: “The Education of a Superhero”.
