So the first trailer for Ultimate Spider-Man is up:

Honestly......meh. I mean, the animation is quite nice (as it should be for the Man of Action team), but I really don't like the whole concept of doing it all as a team-up show. If they're shoving Spider-Bikes and the Iron Spider suit and all these other cameos and gimmicky shit into the series, then there's not going to be any time to develop anything with Spider-Man's rogues gallery (the second-best in all of comics, second only to Batman) or his supporting cast (flat-out
the best in all of comics). That, and a lot of the jokes in the trailer kind of fall flat to me, like they're trying too hard to make it 'wacky.' And Spidey really isn't all that wacky; he's just a smartass that never shuts up.
I want it to be good, and it looks nice and flashy, but I can't watch the trailer and not think "
This is what they cancelled Spectacular Spider-Man for?"
