A preview of season 2
I like the nod to Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends

See, I find the character design of Ultimate sort of bland. I prefer the style for Spectacular. It's funny how Batman: The Animated Series had a simple style, and people don't get all over it for the art...
^I agree with all that, but the show actually makes it far worse, because this Spidey doesn't want to be mentored for some reason. He doesn't want training, he doesn't follow orders, he doesn't want any of SHIELD's gear (and when he does he breaks it), and he doesn't want to hang out with other young heroes. Fury showers him with everything a budding super-hero could ever want and Spidey throws it all back like it's diseased.

Look a little above
Thanks for pointing that out. For free, I guess I'll download it. Interested in seeing their version of "The Lizard."For those curious, the first episode is now available for download at iTunes for free:

I can't wait for Rocket Raccoon and the rest. I noticed they weren't in the trailer. They did have Hawkeye though.
So, I was watching Ultimate Spider-Man, it was the "Attack of the Beetle" episode. I love this episode so very, very much but the first two times I saw it basically consisted of non-stop squee. Squee isn't very conducive to character study and the little character study I had done was Coulson related between the year at cooking school and the only agent to take down the Beetle and his owning what looks like a cartoon interpretation of a blue '55 T-Bird...so nice...
Today, I paid attention to Aunt May and well...
First of all, it's all from Peter's perspective so we're very limited, but...
1. Coulson talks several times about how interesting May is.
2. May seems to be gone an awful lot...
3. We don't get to hear a lot of what May and Phil are actually talking about.
4. And most important...May is able to get out of her own kidnapping, remove her restraints AND FIRE a fighter plane.
Again...
Aunt May used a fighter plane to rescue Coulson and Spider-Man. Then, she LIED. She said, "Oh, I must have hit the wrong button" but she was doing that twinkling eye thing like when a character is lying. She knew exactly which button to hit and when.
What if Aunt May had her own secrets? What if she was some sort of agent or a founding member of SWORD or something? What if Coulson knows all of this but is keeping it secret from Peter just like he's keeping Peter's secret from May? What if all of May's trips and mountain climbing and such are actually cover stories for continuing her activities? I mean, we know Peter's parents were involved in things and Marvel has a habit of making parents secretly involved in SHIELD or whatever...think Tony Stark and Reed Richards...
I know I should just be happy in season two to even have Aunt May and maybe even have her still going out on dates with Phil but...
I REALLY WANT MAY TO BE A SECRET AGENT OR SOMETHING!
I think their designs changed a bit
This episode is dull
There's too much of those cutaways and fourth wall stuff, as usualI noticed a bit of a change in the animation too, what about the 4th wall stuff?
The designs in The Spectacular spider-Man are also more humble and down-to-earth IMO.
Compared to Ultimate Spider-Man...
