Things are getting hot n’ heavy thanks to the sexual tension of Silver Sable and Hammerhead beating the heck out of each other! The criminology arc begins and immediately goes hard on the impending gang war as multiple criminal elements vie for the plans to make a Rhino army. We get into the many team-ups of this episode, George Stacy dropping incredibly obvious hints about Peter’s identity, the Kingsley twins theory, why this show’s Hammerhead rocks, and more.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 2, Episode 8: “Accomplices”.

It’s the famously bonkers, surreal, and very gay episode that broke our brains! Chris Cummins (Archie Comics, ⁠Sci-Fi Explosion⁠) joins us to revisit the classic Amazing Friends episode we originally covered very early in our podcast, where Dr. Doom accidentally imbues a lonely down-on-his-luck man named Mr. Frump with infinite god-like powers and absolute chaos ensues. We give an in-depth queer reading of this episode and its reality-bending horror, including Mr. Frump coming freshly out of the closet, Dr. Doom as a party bottom, and Aunt May as the only good ally.

We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 1, Episode 3: “The Fantastic Mr. Frump”.

Venom has outed Peter Parker as Spider-Man to the Daily Bugle, and we try to untangle this wildly ambitious episode that might be just a little bit TOO ambitious! We get into the complications of the news media and paparazzi chasing Peter, Flash Thompson in a Spider-Man costume saving Spider-Man twice, a weirdly giggly Gwen Stacy, and one of the best and longest fight sequences in the series between Spidey and Venom!

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 2, Episode 7: “Identity Crisis”.

Wouldst thou like to listen to this pod – a tale of both Shakespeare and Spider-Man?! In an episode framed by auditions, we explain all the Shakespeare monologues, the tragedy of one John Jameson (a Colonel Jupiter made from space sporks!) and Venom’s continued mad villainy. Are we in iambic pentameter?!

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 2, Episode 6: “Growing Pains”.

Flash Thompson's birthday party becomes the center of romance drama, psychological torment, and a neat video message narrative device in one of The Spectacular Spider-Man's all-timers! We talk about the heavier lean into the teen story while still telling a poignant character story for Sandman, the evolution into a true ensemble show, Eddie Brock’s clever manipulation of Peter’s paranoia, and Rosie Thompson being an absolute disaster of a mother.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 2, Episode 5: “First Steps”.

Notice me, Spider-Man! A campy supervillain uses his incredible technology to raise sunken ships, steal treasure, and wreak havoc… but really, they’re all just elaborate ploys to get the attention of his crush, Spider-Man. Also, Diamonds for the Deprived is still an unhinged name for a charity.

We’re watching Spider-Man (1981): Season 1, Episode 16: “The Unfathomable Professor Gizmo”.

Doc Ock goes full Evil Genius (it says so on his coffee mug) as he tries to infiltrate Homeland Security and take over the world’s computers! And on New Year’s Eve, no less. We’re talking about the end of the Engineering arc, which includes a tense espionage story for George Stacy, a classic comic book moment for Spider-Man, a big kiss from Liz Allen, and mixed bag of a story for unconscious-kidnapping-victim-but-also-heroic Gwen Stacy. Oh, and one very devastating ending.

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 2, Episode 4: “Shear Strength”.

Ho ho ho! Put on your winter coats and strap on your ice skates for a very special Christmas episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man featuring the New Sinister Six! We tackle the beautifully animated fight sequences – and the not-so-beautifully rendered CGI Christmas tree – along with the Muzak covers of Christmas songs, Spider-Man’s burnt tongue, and Peter Parker navigating his girl problems like a dating sim (derogatory).

We’re watching The Spectacular Spider-Man: Season 2, Episode 3: “Reinforcement”.
