Disney+’s ‘Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man’ Is a Refreshing, Fun Spin on Marvel’s Web-Slinger: TV Review


In Disney+'s newest animated series, 'Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,’ Peter Paker's origin story gets a classic look and a refreshing new take.

However, balancing his friendships, which include his new bestie, Nico Minoru (Grace Song), his crush, Pearl Pangan (Cathy Ang) and popular quarterback Lonnie Lincoln (Eugene Byrd), is proving to be way more challenging than expected. In addition to depicting Peter and his friends as they experience the typical teenage tropes of friendship, belonging, love and self-actualization, the series highlights the perils of greed, power and loyalty. Full of popular Marvel characters, a stellar voice cast and numerous Easter eggs, “Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” captures everything fans have always loved about Spidey while delivering a fresh take on the teen superhero’s beginnings.
