Homecoming New Spider-Man animated series coming in 2017

[Neno_Kos]

finally, can't watch that crap from ultimate spider-man.

 

[Spider-Gnome]

Dan Slott really is a mixed bag. His current run on Spider-Man comics is crap. But, he's done some really solid work, i.e. I'm with Stupid, Renew Your Vows, etc.

While my expectations have diminished thanks to Slott being involved, I'll keep an open mind and am hoping for the best. At least USM is going away. That was pure ugly.



Slott has a good working knowledge of the Spidey mythos and continuity but it's all about execution. Weisman is respectful of the source and sought to bring about more cohesion within the story while maintaining the core of the characters. Slott will do the same so long as the story revolves around Ock or Carlie Cooper.

I'm not going to denounce this show just because Slott is involved but my excitement is now diminished. It's not whining, it's that I care how this turns out and I really don't care for Slott and his methods.



This.

I don't see him as being disrespectful of that history. He is writing stories taking place now based on what happened in the past, not re-telling stories. You know I'm not picking on you Webhead, since we like a lot of the same when it comes to Spidey. You and others are free not to like what's happening in the current comics. But Pete right now is dealing with a situation that was started by Ock, who built Parker Industries. It's funny when I saw people complain how intelligent Pete was struggling to make money selling pix to the Bugle. They said he should use his intelligence and be successful. Well, he's doing just that and people still complain.

I do miss him being in New York and being with MJ. But, just like Superior, this is taking the character in a different direction. Pete is still Pete, even though he's in a more Tony position. Now he has Harry and Hobey(!) working for him. Sounds like he's getting more responsibility with the Avengers. Miles Warren is back, and I always liked his stuff, despite the mess the 90's Clone Saga was.

But I see Slott as building on continuity, not disrespecting it. I'm not saying he is going to be better than Weisman. Nothing would give me more joy than if they brought back Weisman and this became season 3 of Spectacular. I'm just saying Slott is a positive with his knowledge of Spidey history and continuity.

Maybe this is just where you and I differ, but the fact that he supports Marvels misguided vision for the character in which Peter should be a perpetually single and inept man-child who never grows up, has the same tired, one-note relationship with Aunt May in which she can never again learn his secret, and has a toxic relationship with Mary Jane in which she no longer wants to associate with him-that's enough to tell me that he shouldn't be allowed within 100 feet of the character.

Oh yeah, and the fact that he constantly acts like a temperamental child online and insults and belittles fans who don't agree with him or Marvels decisions.

 

[harryoscop]

What if Tom voiced Spidey?

 

[ernesth100]

The hell is Horizon School? They turned the lab i to a school?

 

[Slade W]

I, personally, am happy that Slott will be involved, as I am a fan of his work.

 

[Neno_Kos]

What if Tom voiced Spidey?

given he already give a voice for CGI spidey in Civil War and it worked. I have no problem with this

Actually, that description of Pete is more of how he was depicted during BND, not how he currently is written (in my opinion).

And I am not defending his actions online.

[Oscorp]

Good news. I haven't read a single Dan Slott comic so I can't tell anything about his writing, but I'm not a big fan of what I've heard about his stories. Still, it can't get worse than Ultimate Spider-Man.

 

[UltimateMarvel]

What if Tom voiced Spidey?

I'd rather have Josh Keaton return to voice Spidey.

 

[ItchyWebShooter]

I just want that SSM shirt Josh is wearing...

I posed this question in the other forum (where this discussion probably belongs tbh), but how will Marvel cross-pollinate this show with their other characters when USM was already in that universe (AFAIK)? Seems odd they would totally remove any chance for interaction with other Marvel characters just as they get the ability to have those interactions on the big screen!

 

[harryoscop]

If this is not set in the wider Marvel Universe i'd be perfectly fine with it. Eliminates the chances of us ever getting another superhero teen squad like they did in USM

 

[Slick]

Yeah I'm hoping that this is set in its own universe.

This
I mean given how subpar that Animated Universe is, I wouldn't want the new Spidey to be at that level of crap

 

[Venomfan]

Ultimatewebhead, Kamphausd1, and spider-gnome just had the most civil internet disagreement.

 

[ItchyWebShooter]

It's true their universe is subpar. I'd like to see it in a universe where he can team up with the FF etc.

But not what we'd like, I just mean from a business sense...doesn't really seem to be the best move for them.

 

[Marvel Spider]

Looks like it'll be a January release? They could be mistaken since that's the month USM airs its finale, but on the other hand, they do work directly on the show, so...

[SuperSanchez]

Why does it look like spidey was drawn in Microsoft Paint?....

 

[zeptron]

I've seen some people groan at the premise of Peter being in high school again. I can understand the complaint, but honestly, I feel that this is necessary. In the last 5 years, the Spidey brand hasn't faired too well. The comics are hit and miss from what I've seen, the movies have had their reputation damaged, I'm not gonna get started on the Ultimate cartoon and since the other Marvel heroes took off thanks to the MCU, Spider-Man's lost a bit of his dominance despite being the most marketable superhero. I'm just glad that Spidey's getting some of his dominance back and I'm looking forward to Homecoming and the PS4 game.

Plus we also haven't actually seen Peter grow up and mature outside of the comics. Most previous adaptations either started out with him already in college or about to graduate high school.

Maybe that is a mistake and maybe that is when we are going to get more news about the show not a release?

 

[DaddlerTheDalek]

I need a trailer first.

I think the picture is pixelated because it's bigger than it should be or something. I've seen the same picture smaller and spidey looks fine.
