Marvel's Spider-Man is an American animated television series, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. A replacement for the previous series Ultimate Spider-Man, the first season premiered on August 19, 2017, on Disney XD. The show was subtitled Maximum Venom for its third season, which premiered on April 19, 2020.
Gifted teenager Peter Parker is given superpowers when he is bitten by a radioactive spider during a school field trip to Oscorp Industries. After the death of his Uncle Ben by a burglar that he hesitated to stop at a wrestling arena, Peter comes to his own terms of being the superhero Spider-Man. Sometime later, Peter begins learning how to balance his crime-fighting career with his new enrollment at Horizon High, a school for students with genius-level intellect run by Max Modell. Joining Peter in his ordeals against Norman Osborn, Jackal, and numerous other villains are his classmates Gwen Stacy, Miles Morales (who develops powers similar to Peter's and becomes the Ultimate Spider-Man), and Anya Corazon, as well as his best friend Harry Osborn (who eventually becomes the superhero Hobgoblin).
Besides Norman and Jackal, other villains introduced this season include Doctor Octopus, Vulture, Venom, Rhino, Spencer and Alistair Smythe, Kraven the Hunter, Black Cat, A.I.M., Curt Connors, Sandgirl, Scorpion, and Crossbones. Other characters introduced in this season include May Parker, Flash Thompson, Liz Allan, Randy Robertson, Robbie Robertson, Iron Man, Hulk, Black Widow, and Sandman.
Taking place a few months after the previous season, Otto Octavius possesses Spider-Man's body and becomes the Superior Spider-Man. Peter's consciousness transfers into Otto's tentacle harness and convinces him to reverse the swap. Towards the end of the season, Spider-Man and company discover the existence of a cult-like organization led by Adrian Toomes as the Goblin King.
During this season, Peter gains a career at the Daily Bugle, Anya becomes Spider-Girl after gaining superpowers from the "Spider-Island" incident, Gwen becomes Ghost-Spider after gaining superpowers from the Blood Gem, and Spider-Man forms a "Spider Team" with his inner circle.
This season introduces more villains, including Chameleon, Electro, Silvermane, Regent, Beetle, Silver Sable, Tinkerer, Monica Rappaccini, MODOK, Slyde, Eddie Brock, and the Wake Riders. Other characters introduced in this season include Anna Maria Marconi, Cloak and Dagger, Ms. Marvel, Yuri Watanabe, Prowler, Abraham Brown, Captain America, J. Jonah Jameson, Grady Scraps, Captain Marvel, and original character Nocturnal.
Taking place two weeks after the previous season, Spider-Man uncovers two separate plots centered on Venom. The most prominent is helping Max Modell save the Earth from an invasion of Klyntar summoned by Venom. The secondary plot is a conspiracy helmed by Curt Connors to frame Modell for Venom's actions. Backed up by Hobgoblin, the Spider Team exposes Norman's conspiracy, resulting in Modell regaining his job. During the battle with the Klyntar, Horizon High is destroyed, with the Spiders planning to build a tech laboratory called the Worldwide Engineering Brigade to replace it.
Besides Dark Goblin, other villains introduced in this season include Scream, Scorn, Mania, Swarm (Jefferson Davis), Tarantula, Baron Mordo, and the Klyntar dragon Grendel. Other characters introduced in this season include Ironheart, the Totally Awesome Hulk, Doctor Strange, Star-Lord, Groot, Moon Knight, Anti-Venom, and Thor.
The series' incarnation of Spider-Man makes guest appearances in Guardians of the Galaxy and the fifth season of Avengers Assemble, which are set in the same continuity. Max Modell and Venom also appear in the former series, while Kraven the Hunter and Vulture appear in the latter.
