#259: “Rise of the Goblin”

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2025/01/28

Season 1 of Ultimate Spider-Man ends as Spider-Man leaves S.H.I.E.L.D. for good… and then promptly returns a few minutes later! Among all the fun Green Goblin/Venom action–and a good Harry Osborn story–we talk about some of the frustrating narrative cul-de-sacs this show takes, the bizarre reveal of Luke Cage, White Tiger, Iron Fist, and Nova’s home lives (and how the show has utterly failed all of them), and why Phil Coulson needs to be off the show. We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1,

2025/01/21

The season finale of Ultimate Spider-Man begins just as Derek returns–along with a new hairless, armless, cat-mechless Doc Ock! We talk about the effectiveness (or lackthereof) of Spidey’s team and how the show tries to sell an friendship arc we never saw, how Venom/Spider-Man DNA could Norman Osborn into a mutant Green Goblin monster with a weird metal arm, and this show’s flawed approach to season-long storytelling.We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 25: “Revealed”.

The Beetle is back! …sort of? And he’s ruining Agent Coulson’s date with Aunt May! Glitterjaw’s own Merrilee (Fear Coded) returns to untangle the messy continuity of Ultimate Spider-Man’s Beetle story. We also chat about parent teacher conferences and drop some Doug and Merrilee high school lore, delve into the realm of ancient Roman goddesses, and break down what works and doesn’t work about Coulson and Spider-Man’s respective histories with the world’s deadliest mercenary.We’re watching Ultimate

2025/01/07

Spider-Man accidentally gives Captain America’s shield to the most dangerous man in the world, and Glitterjaw’s own Merrilee (Fear Coded) steps in to break it down. We dig into the extremely brief Aliens homage at the start, get a lesson in the make-up of Captain America’s shield, and try desperately to figure out exactly which lesson we’re supposed to take away from this story.We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 23: “Not a Toy”.

2024/12/31

There are only a few episodes of Spider-Woman left, and Glitterjaw’s own Katie (Novel Gaming) joins Doug to break down this time travel tale! Unsurprisingly, we create a rich backstory for another pre-90s one-off animated supervillain icon, do our best to unravel Spider-Woman’s time travel mechanics, and pose the question: what if the Wookiees-not-Wookiees were actually correct to invade the futuristic Domed City of Peace? We’re watching Spider-Woman: Season 1, Episode 14: “A Crime in Time”. Check

2024/12/24

Doc Ock is back, and this time he’s more menacing than ever, because he’s got… a huggable robo-cat suit? Glitterjaw’s own David Arnold is back to cover an episode that definitely shouldn’t be anyone’s first, because all the returning players are adults with ongoing capital-D drama. We talk all about Harry’s daddy issues, Spider-Man’s lack of MCU-like daddy issues surrounding Iron Man, and what it would take for us to issue a daddy card to this Otto Octavius.

2024/12/17

Mary Jane Watson writes a Spider-Man musical for Midtown High, and Flash is the star! Glitterjaw’s own David Arnold steps in to break down Ultimate Spider-Man’s version of the classic “Flash Thompson gets mistaken for Spider-Man” tale. We talk about how this episode handles its in medias res opening, how to build a mid-season episode that could be anyone’s first, and how this show managed to tell a story that involves two teenaged boys sharing a spandex suit in the context of musical theater without

#252: “Run Pig Run”

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/12/10

Spider-Man is turned into a Spider-Ham thanks to a magic hot dog, and is chased by boar-killing Asgardian hunters in a game with Thor and Loki… and somehow, none of it is as weird and wacky as you’d expect! We talk about the ways this show sometimes chooses safer narrative options despite being a comedy, and also dig into the Phil Coulson hype of the early MCU.We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 20: “Run Pig Run”.

2024/12/03

Spider-Woman faces a nude magician adorned in KISS makeup who’s stealing all the world’s landmarks and ransoming them for (Dr. Evil voice) TEN BILLION DOLLARS! We’re talking about one of the zaniest episodes of one of our favorite Spider-shows, which features surrealist booby traps in a haunted house, an Incredible Shrinking Hero (kind of), wildly fluid animated moments, and Spider-Woman’s own personal Mysterio.We’re watching Spider-Woman: Season 1, Episode 13: “The Great Magini”.

#250: “Home Sick Hulk”

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/11/26

Peter has to juggle taking care of a sick Hulk and an injured Aunt May in one house without jeopardizing his secret identity! Sounds like a great premise for a high-concept episode…until it keeps going and becomes something totally different. We talk about why the need to be a half-hour action show hinders what could be a straightforward comedic gem.We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 19: “Home Sick Hulk”.

#249: “Damage”

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/11/19

A story spotlighting Damage Control and superhero property destruction is a great idea! Unfortunately, just like all the comically collapsing buildings, this episode falls apart. We talk about a shrinking subplot that goes nowhere, an underwhelming mystery, why Wrecking Crew could take lessons from tokusatsu teams, and how the comedy and morality lessons of the episode clash.

#248: “Snow Day”

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/11/12

It’s a beach episode! Spidey and his team blow off their S.H.I.E.L.D. training (as they should) and go to a remote island that houses a mysterious green striped-shirted prisoner–but unlike Sandmans of the past, this one is extremely creepy, with a dark backstory that makes Nick Fury and his organization look very, very bad. But does the episode take its secret military spy organization to task as much as it should?We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 17: “Snow Day”. Website⁠ |

#247: “The Spider-Woman and the Fly”

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/11/05

Would you believe us if we said this is THE BEST episode of Spider-Woman? A new archenemy who loves being a fly freak has ties to Jessica Drew’s backstory. Spider-Woman fights a little bionic guy and a giant scorpion. We get an extended origin flashback, genuine twists, and a plot you could see working in a Spider-Woman movie.

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/10/29

Spidey has to protect Jameson and Mary Jane from a very Kamen Rider-esque Beetle and his assault on the Daily Bugle! We talk about the limitations of casting J.K. Simmons, the challenges of utilizing the S.H.I.E.L.D. team, Mary Jane working as a journalist, and how some of the show’s best humor comes, shockingly, from Scott Mosier of Kevin Smith’s View Askewniverse.We’re watching Ultimate Spider-Man: Season 1, Episode 16: “Beetle Mania”.

2024/10/22

Check your horoscope! A furry-headed villainous group called the Zodiac takes over S.H.I.E.L.D. and only Spidey and Nick Fury can stop them, resulting in an homage that’s equal parts James Bond and Die Hard! We talk about how this Brian Michael Bendis-penned episode utilizes the show’s unique sensibilities to do some solid genre parody.

Walloping Websnappers! A Spider-Man Podcast ·

2024/10/15

We’re back to the wackiness of the very beloved, not-at-all controversial or divisive Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, in an episode that pits Spidey’s team against Juggernaut, a science fair, and a kaiju-sized android with a toddler’s brain. Normal stuff! We talk about the weirdness of the team dynamic (and how this episode kinda fails Luke Cage), Peter Parker’s ambiguous morality, all the giant naked men, and recalibrating to this show’s unique tone.

2024/09/24

It’s the SERIES FINALE of the iconic 90s Spider-Man cartoon! Get out your tissues, because Spidey ventures to a parallel universe filled with cameos and references – including his own giant robot and a girlfriend named Gwen Stacy – for a final conflict with Spider-Carnage that results in a shockingly emotional climax. We talk about why the ending isn’t the “cliffhanger” it’s made out to be, and what makes this such a stellar finale and one of the best episodes of the show. We’re watching Spider-Man:

2024/09/17

We’re at the FINAL TWO-PARTER of the iconic 90s Spider-Man cartoon, where our Spidey Prime leads a team of alternate universe Spider-Men to fight a reality-annihilating Spider-Carnage! We talk about how this episode condenses the entire comics clone saga into a few minutes of flashbacks (which somehow works?), whether this cosmic-scale finale feels earned, how the alt-Spideys reflect our Peter Parker, and of course we discuss the proverbial question… did John Semper “create the Spider-Verse”?
