"Ultimate Spider-Man (Animated Series)" News & Discussion Thread, Part 9 (Spoilers)

[Freddy]

Magmaster12, lay off! I dislike Loebverse as much as you do, but there's no reason for personal attacks! People are entitled to enjoy these shows.

 

[Capt.Traphouse]

Fellas, fellas, fellas. If you ain't digging the show, say it and leave. Ain't no reason to waste your time on this rock complaining abut something you hate that has no real power in your life. I love it, they're using a ton of characters never put into animation before and the stories are only getting better.

 

[Wonderwall]

Enough of this. This argument gets dropped now or more infractions get issued which I'd rather not do.

 

[Capt.Traphouse]

Had a thought, do you think Spiderman's team going to be even less useful in the assumed next season? The show has slowly been moving away from that aspect.

Granted, Spidey pretty much has a whole new team in the New Warriors, which is probably a big reason the team got downplayed. Aside from the team all getting new costumes, Nova getting one focus episode, and Luke being in "Burrito Run," they've been really downplayed this season. Not that I particularly mind, since Ava and Sam certainly aren't favorites of mine (at least in cartoon form), but it's still kinda sad after two seasons of development .

What is XD doing with this show? They haven't showed new episodes in months.

 

[Capt.Traphouse]

Bro, idk. Like, I'm trying to find the Disney UK Contest of Champions episodes online but can't. People are saying there is a fourth season which is sick but I don't know how when the episodes are being aired so randomly.

What is XD doing with this show? They haven't showed new episodes in months.

In March, after the last part of "Spider-Verse" was aired, during Emerald City Comic Con, there was a panel about Marvel Animation and this is what they said:

<<What's next for Ultimate Spider-Man is, in July, we come back with new episodes and a new storyline entitled "S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy">>, said Cort Lane.

So, you will have to wait until July for new episodes in the USA. But I assure you, they wait will be worthy.

 

[ChessKing]

The next episode to air in the US is titled Ant-Man.
So it might be released in July the same time as the Ant-Man Movie.

 

[TheGreatOne2]

Actually U.S has not aired S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy (3x14) and Rampaging Rhino (3x15) yet either. Ant-Man (3x16) is not the next episode to air in the U.S S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy is

Thank you very much for the info, ChessKing. I managed to see the episode, and here are my comments about it:

Spoiler

+ It was really epic seeing most of the heroes of the three series together!!
+ I really love this version of Aunt May!! She was really a corageous woman attacking the Absorving Man to protect her nephew. No more classic weakling Aunt May for Peter to continuously worry. If no one can appreciate this, it can't recognize something good.
+ Just the kind of defeat I was expecting to see for the Grandmaster. He really deserved it. It's just too bad they couldn't make him more hurt.
+ Good timing for Nova to appear. Geez!, what a bucket head.
+ Now that Aunt May knows Peter's secret, although she said she always knew, this is really a new beginning. The series can't stop at this point, because now we have what I have been expecting: Peter Parker's world involved as much as Spider-Man's world. Agent Venom and Iron Spider discovering his secret identity can also have some repercussions.

Well, maybe it's not official or what, but we definetely need one more season of "Ultimate Spider-Man". We could consider it the Season 2 of "Web Warriors". There have been a lot of points without resolving in this season. Check them:
+ Spoilers from "Disney Infinity": The animated debut of Mysterio and Black Cat.
+ Spoilers from "TCG": Electro gets a new black uniform (stop being naked) and Jack O'Lantern is "recreated" as a dude with tech instead of magic.
+ Spoilers from previous episodes: The debuts of more new heroes like Speedball, Gravity and Echo. More characters who were created by Doc Ock's experiments; Kangaroo potentially being one of them. Norman Osborn's amnesia, which by the way, I'm not buying it.
+ Spoilers from past interviews: Spidey was supposed to meet more Spider-Characters in this season. They said Spider-Man 2099, Spider-Girl and Miles Morales would return.
+ Grandmaster's bio promised us the debut of "Mistress Death".

With all this, I can have a few suspictions about potential events in a fouth season:

Spoiler

+ Norman Osborn becomes the Goblin again, recovering his memories about Spider-Man's identity and putting his world in great danger.
+ Mary Jane discovers Spider-Man's secret identity too and gets more involved.
+ Spidey making top villains mad always has repercussions for him; just like Loki and Nightmare's attacks against him. So, there are a few more top villains who could cause big and important problems to Spidey in the future: Morgan LeFay, Arnim Zola and the Grandmaster.
+ Morgan LeFay: In comics, she started as one of Spider-Woman's main foes. So, what if Morgan ends up causing th creation of a Spider-Woman in this series?
+ Arnim Zola: Now this is really a big problem for Spidey. Considering he's an expert in cloning, he could cause certains problems to Spidey, mirroring the story of the Jackal.
+ The Grandmaster: After such humilliations, I really don't think the Grandmaster will just leave Spider-Man alone. I'm pretty sure he will return looking for vengeance.
+ "The Clone Saga": The Clone thing was mentioned many times during "Spider-Verse"; and with Arnim Zola possibly returning, I wouldn't be surprise if he creates some old faces we know. Like Ben Reilly, Kaine and Ult Jessica Drew.
+ "Spider-Island": Now THIS is a story the really have to adapt in animated form. This could be another of Arnim Zola's experiments. I wonder if they would create an animated version of the Queen for the story.

Think whatever you want. But one thing is for sure: This series cannot be over!!!

Dadgum these spoilers have me excited. Can't wait to see these episodes.

DisneyXD has renewed Marvel's Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors for a fourth season, where it will be retitled Ultimate Spider-Man Vs The Sinister Six. More details can be found here.

In season four of "Marvel's Ultimate Spider-Man vs. The Sinister 6," a confident Spider-Man feels like the ultimate hero after fighting alongside The Avengers and leading a team of heroes at S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy. However, when the wall-crawler discovers that his greatest enemies – Doctor Octopus, Hydra and the all-new Sinister 6 – are working together to destroy him and S.H.I.E.L.D., he teams up with a special new team of Spiders including Miles Morales, Agent Venom, Iron Spider and the mysterious new Scarlet Spider. Spider-Man and his new friends will need to use all of their power to overcome their greatest challenge yet.

Huh. A whole season dedicated to Spidey fighting the Sinister Six? That seems...fairly limiting .

Then again we didn't get the Web Warriors until a Spider-Verse special later in the season that took forever to air over here, so maybe that will be a similar deal .

I wonder who the new roster will be? Ock seems like he'll be involved, obviously, so it'll be interesting to see who make up the rest of the group. Or maybe it'll be a rotating roster, considering they're supposed to be a big element this season?

And having HYDRA be a prominent villain in a Spider-Man cartoon makes it feel more like a SHIELD cartoon with Spider-Man in the lead than an actual Spider-Man cartoon. Now that I think about it, that actually describes Ultimate Spider-Man fairly well .

But Miles will join the New Warriors? Doesn't he have a whole family and city to protect in another dimension !?

Fantastic news

 

[RoryWilliams]

They likely chose the title to tie into the ill-fated Sinister Six movie that was in the works at the time.

 

[bigdaddy313]

I knew there was going to be a fourth season and I knew it was going to be re-titled.

But I was hopping that in this new season Spider-Man quits S.H.I.E.L.D and things get more personal, but with the title and the synopsis it's like that ain't happening.

And talk about switching Story Editors of both series Ultimate and Avengers.

You think that, if that were the case, they would've changed it by now .
