Spider man the new animated series venom

If The Spectacular Spider-Man would have continued Venom's arc, it probably would have been great, but the little that was seen resulted in a more compelling and grounded iteration of the character. The big mistake many cartoons make when adapting Venom is turning him into a cosmic threat. The Spectacular Spider-Man avoided this by keeping Venom intimately devastating.

Spider-Man (also known as 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.[1][2] The show was subtitled Spider-Man: Maximum Venom for its third season,[3] which premiered on April 19, 2020.[4]

Season 1[edit]

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 headmaster 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).[1]

Besides Norman and Jackal, other villains introduced this season include Doctor Octopus, Vulture, Venom, Rhino, the Smythes (Spencer and Alistair), Hammerhead, Kraven the Hunter, Black Cat, A.I.M., Curt Connors, Sand Girl, Scorpion, and Crossbones. Other characters introduced in this season include May Parker, Flash Thompson, Liz Allan, Randy Robertson, Iron Man, Hulk, Black Widow, and Sandman.

Season 2[edit]

Taking place a few months after the previous season, Peter navigates through his sophomore year while contending with Doctor Octopus' plot of becoming the Superior Spider-Man by possessing his body. Convinced by Peter's memories of Uncle Ben into seeing the error of his ways, Otto Octavious eventually reverses the body-swap and works to restore Peter's relationships with his peers while reforming himself as an ally to Spider-Man. Towards the end of the season, Spider-Man and company discover the existence of a cult-like organization led by Adrian Toomes called themselves the Goblin Nation, armed with the same kind of Goblin technology used by Norman.[5]

During this season, Peter gains a career at the Daily Bugle, Anya becomes Spider-Girl alias when her Spider Powers from the "Spider-Island" incident resurface, Gwen becomes Ghost-Spider after her Spider Powers are awakened by the Blood Gem relic, 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, and Eddie Brock. It also features the Goblin King, who is not Osborn but Adrian Toomes. Other characters introduced in this season include Anna Maria Marconi, Cloak, Dagger, Ms. Marvel, Yuri Watanabe, Prowler, Abraham Brown, Captain America, J. Jonah Jameson, Grady Scraps, and Captain Marvel.

Season 3 (Maximum Venom)[edit]

Taking place two weeks after the previous season, Spider-Man and Max Modell must save the Earth from an invasion of Klyntar summoned by Venom. Concurrently to all of this, Spider-Man and company must prove Max's innocence after the latter is framed by Dr. Connors, eventually discovering that Norman Osborn has been pulling the strings following his near-death at the hands of Spider-Man and Hobgoblin. While they are able to expose Norman's conspiracy and vanquish the Klyntar for good, the Spider Team's victory comes at the cost of demolishing Horizon High. To keep the spirit of their former school alive, they convince Iron Man to help them fund a tech laboratory called Worldwide Engineering Brigade "W.E.B." at an abandoned warehouse, with Peter believing that a bright future is ahead of them.

During this season, Max admits to being aware of Spider-Man's identity since the downfall of the Goblin Nation, Gwen and Anya become aware of Spider-Man's identity and vice versa thanks to Connors' manipulations, Norman is temporarily resurrected as a hybrid of Venom and Jackal's DNA known as the Dark Goblin before being reverted later, and Peter befriends Mary Jane Watson.

This season introduces more villains, including Scream, Scorn, Mania, Swarm, Tarantula and Baron Mordo. It also marks the first appearance of Green Goblin in the show, albeit in a “Dark Goblin” persona. Other characters introduced in this season include Ironheart, Totally Awesome Hulk, Doctor Strange, Star-Lord, Groot, Marc Spector, and Anti-Venom.

Is there a Venom animated series?

Spider-Man: The Animated Series offers the first definitive iteration of Venom in animation. It introduces Eddie Brock early on, and from there, the audience witnesses his arc tumble into misery, all while Spider-Man gains the alien symbiote costume.

Why is Venom called v252?

The name V-252 is a reference to Amazing Spider-Man #252, which was the Venom symbiote's first appearance. Ben Diskin, the voice actor of Eddie Brock and Venom from The Spectacular Spider-Man, and the voice of Flash Thompson in this series, reprises his role as Venom when the symbiote is bonded to Flash.
