Here are the first two shorts. They're on both the Disney Junior YouTube channel and the Marvel HQ channel.

WEB-STER | Marvel's Spidey and his Amazing Friends

S.O.S. Kitty! | Marvel's Spidey and His Amazing Friends

Meet Spidey And His Amazing Friends "WEB-STER"

Miles new name is Spin? Interesting.

The animation in this show is already dynamite. Looking forward to this. ****.

Meet Spidey And His Amazing Friends "S.O.S. Kitty!"

This show is already eating Marvel Television's lunch. I see now how inadequate Jeph Loeb's tenure actually was.

It's good to have a theme song again. Again, I will not miss Jeph Loeb.

The show seems to be story based like Elena Of Avalor rather than kiddie moral based like Muppet Babies. That is good.

Liking what I'm seeing so far. ****.

 

[Frontier]

Addressing the codename issue right off the bat. How much "spinning" is Miles going to be doing in this show ?

The youngest version of Spider-Man also has probably the comprehensive high-tech setup .

Wow, that's got to be the youngest looking Aunt May ever .

Will they all have their own tranfsormation sequences ?

Look at Peter Parker's cat! Actually, didn't he have a cat in the Marvel Super Hero Adventures shorts too....

 

[SweetShop209]

Here is today's short, Spidey Mystery.

 

[Frontier]

Here is today's short, Spidey Mystery.

This show is definitely doing justice to how you'd expect these characters to move. Even Ghost Spider's gliding looks better than it did in the last cartoon .

Count on a police captain's daughter to know how to search for clues .

"Ghostie?" Is that a thing ?

That donut truck driver must have so many questions .

 

[Checkerboard]

Didn't know this existed. Seems like a modern kids version of that 70s/80s Spiderman show.

 

[bigdaddy313]

You know it’s sooo sad that the last thing from Marvel Television looks very nice, after all this years.

It's not Marvel Television. That's why it looks nice.

Meet Spidey And His Amazing Friends "Spidey Mystery"

Cute. I mentioned before how impressed I am with the animation but I think the music in the shorts is really good too. ***1/2.

 

[SweetShop209]

Here is A Helping Hulk.

 

[Frontier]

Here is A Helping Hulk.

Hulk is so cute (and purple pants!) .

All that talk and Spidey is the one that messes up .

Fist-bumping Hulk is...dangerous .

 

[Fone Bone]

Meet Spidey And His Amazing Friends "A Helping Hulk"

This version of Hulk is great. Simply because he is so far outside of any other interpretation. There is no anger attached to him whatsoever. He's sunny, and bright, and always excited to help. And just to prove he's not actually a dope, after he untangles himself from the web blaster, he gives a ridiculously smoldering pout and says Very Seriously, "We've Got Work To Do."

I think his scale is wrong though. He's an adult and him and kid Spidey are the same scale as adult Hulk and Spidey in other projects. I notice these things, producers.

I want a plushie of that Hulk. Now. Heck, give me plushies for ALL the Amazing Friends. ****.

 

[brodie999]

Here is A Helping Hulk.

Has anyone noticed that kid Spidey's voice has noticeably become a little bit deeper? Maybe it'll resemble more of adult Spidey when the show ends at probably Season 3-4.

 

[SweetShop209]

Here is Spidey Surprise.

 

[Frontier]

Here is Spidey Surprise.

At least this show can give us an actual Green Goblin .

His villains calling him "Spidey" is...different .

Web Bubbles is so Silver Age .

 

[Fone Bone]

Meet Spidey And His Amazing Friends "Spidey Surprise"

I wanted a Tracey plushie now too. ***.

 

[Roxas_Sora]

I know this is a series for pre-school kids, but I really don't like Spidey and the other Spiders having little children's voices. Sounds very weird!

 

[SweetShop209]

Here is Rock A Bye Rhino.

 

[Frontier]

Here is Rock A Bye Rhino.

On the one hand, Rhino is finally a guy in a rhino suit and not a mutated Rhino man! On the other hand, that's the most high pitched I have ever heard Rhino's voice .

Did Spin do any spinning ?

"Arachno Blast?" Is "Venom Blast" not appropriate for kids ?

 

[Mostezli]

On the other hand, that's the most high pitched I have ever heard Rhino's voice

Speaking of voices, is that not just Gumball & Darwin playing Spider-men?
