Walloping Websnappers - A Spider-man Podcast

It might be close to Christmas, but it’s still Halloween for Jack O’Lantern – and this hysterical cackling version of him who just wants cash to buy more Halloween decorations is an absolute joy. Then, in the second segment, Spidey fights and then teams up with Prowler (whose suit we wish was cooler) against robo-Silvermane… somehow prompting yet another Miles Morales conversation from us.   We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 8: “Bring on the Bad Guys, Part Three”.

ANYA CORAZON IS SPIDER-GIRL! Though we wish her entrance had more fanfare (and a full episode), it’s still fun seeing a Spidey story from the perspective of Gwen and Anya, the latter of whom finally gets a chance to spin webs by fighting The Spot. And in the second segment, we meet this show’s version of Mysterio! We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 9: “Bring on the Bad Guys, Part Two”.

It’s no surprise that we love Hippo and Panda-Mania, a literal anthropomorphic hippo and his panda onesie-wearing friend with wrestling moves. But we also love the beginning of this arc, which is penned by comic legend J.M. DeMatteis and features two distinct segments of Spidey facing C-list bad guys and doing a sick Akira slide on a motorcycle.

Venom’s continued revenge on Spider-Man brings out a slew of fun horror tropes as Peter’s loved ones are kidnapped! This action-packed conclusion features a dramatic unmasking, classic Venom belly-mouth, inspired lighting effects, and even more complicated feelings about this show’s use and view of Miles Morales.We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 7: “Venom Returns”.

We’re throwing a party, because the 2017 show is good again–and just in time for the return of Venom! Eddie Brock speaks (!!!) and we learn that he’s a narcissistic, irredeemable creep… who is extremely fun to watch. We talk about the show finally figuring out how to balance Miles as both plucky comic relief AND a superhero, a very out of character Max Modell, horseshoes and robot dances, and more. We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 6: “Dead Man’s Party”.

On one hand, Kamala Khan is the big guest star! On the other hand, this is a distinctly cold and not-fun version of Kamala Khan, which doesn’t seem particularly Kamala Khan-like! Spidey and Ms. Marvel infiltrate an evil boarding school and get tangled in an Avengers kidnapping in an episode that should be way, way more entertaining than it is. We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 5: “School of Hard Knocks”.

We know you’ve been waiting for it. Finally, we’re talking about everyone’s favorite riveting and popular villain team… The Wake Riders? Nah. Unfortunately, this episode’s Super Sentai rejects and a non-redemption arc for Vulture do not make for a good outing, despite coming from a writer we like. We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 4: “Rise Above It All”.

In our first Glitterjaw crossover bonus episode, Katie from Novel Gaming joins us to chat about our spoiler-free first impressions of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, the new game from Insomniac! We talk about the gameplay and enhanced PS5 haptics, our favorite suits for Miles and Peter, the community-minded “friendly neighborhood” of it all, and of course all the queers.

The Master Planner’s Master Plan comes to fruition in one of Spider-Man 2017’s best outings! A delightful Doc Ock superfan Carolyn Trainer upends the harmful “obsessive fangirl” tropes and is instead a welcome dash of fun in an episode full of anime-esque body horror and psychic energy fight sequences. We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 3: “Between an Ock and a Hard Place”.

New season, new school year, new showrunners… new Doc Ock? Otto seeks redemption and a super-science device gets stolen by Wild Pack in the REAL season premiere of the 2017 Spider-Man. But we get hung up on this episode’s messy historical science “facts”, Peter’s money issues coupled with the lack of Harry, the continued underuse of Miles, and what feels like the show steering in a more classical Spider-Man direction that has us conflicted! We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 2: “Take Two”.

We begin the second season of the 2017 Spider-Man series with less of a season premiere and more of an interlude episode made up of low-stakes vignettes about summer! While Peter tries (and fails) to have a successful beach day, baseball game, concert, and camping trip, we dig into the shift in showrunners – and how that may have affected this episode’s unexpected Daily Bugle ending. We’re watching Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 1: “How I Thwipped My Summer Vacation”.

The origin trilogy of Amazing Friends ends with an incredibly faithful adaptation of Spider-Man’s debut! Chris Cummins of Sci-Fi Explosion joins us for one of this show’s best episodes, a gorgeously animated and emotional love letter to Spidey and his friends that also features a hot Shocker who was definitely a gay awakening for many people. We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 2, Episode 3: “Along Came Spidey”.

Firestar’s origin story pits Angelica against one of the most devious, megalomaniacal, pure evil criminal masterminds ever seen – Bonnie the Cheerleader! Greg Leatherman (of Very Random Encounters and It’s Super Effective) joins for this fun Carrie homage and X-Men crossover that highlights why we love Firestar! We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 2, Episode 2: “A Fire-Star is Born”.

Our amazing friends have joined us for this three-episode season of Amazing Friends origin stories! Dr. Christopher Roman, author of Queering Wolverine in Comics and Fan Fiction: A Fastball Special, brings his background as a professor specializing in comics studies and queer theory to analyze this depiction of one of the gayest X-Men – Iceman! And while there’s plenty of queerness to pull from Bobby’s coming out story (told through a futuristic mind probe…for some reason) it’s also split with a Videoman return that doesn’t quite give Iceman his due. We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 2, Episode 1: “The Origin of Iceman”.

We’re celebrating 200 episodes with the very first live-action Spider-Man film – the pilot movie for 1977’s The Amazing Spider-Man series! It’s a strange mixed bag, which includes a good performance by Nicholas Hammond as Peter Parker, a divisive J. Jonah Jameson, a weird lack of Uncle Ben (and conflict for Peter), a shockingly dark premise from an otherwise boring villain, and some ambitious stunts and effects.  We’re watching The Amazing Spider-Man’s pilot movie, Spider-Man (1977). ⁠Website⁠ | ⁠Patreon⁠ | ⁠Discord⁠ Contact us: @WallopingWebPod on ⁠Twitter⁠, ⁠Facebook⁠, and ⁠Instagram⁠ Email: ⁠wallopingwebsnapperspodcast@gmail.com⁠ Theme song features: ⁠“Resonance (Cyan & Ladybot Remix)” by HOME⁠ | ⁠License (CC BY 3.0)⁠

Spider-Man’s first ever appearance in live action might not be where you’d expect! We’ve ventured back to the 1970s with the educational children’s sketch comedy show The Electric Company and its “Spidey Super Stories” segments, which pit a silent Spidey who only communicates with word balloons against puntastic comedy villains (including a Dracula played by Morgan Freeman and a cake-sitting Yeti). It’s low-budget silliness and absurdity at its finest! We’re watching a compilation of sketches that you can find here (and you should, they’re great). ⁠Website⁠ | ⁠Patreon⁠ | ⁠Discord⁠ Contact us: @WallopingWebPod on ⁠Twitter⁠, ⁠Facebook⁠, and ⁠Instagram⁠ Email: ⁠wallopingwebsnapperspodcast@gmail.com⁠ Theme song features: ⁠“Resonance (Cyan & Ladybot Remix)” by HOME⁠ | ⁠License (CC BY 3.0)⁠

A season we’ve loved ends on a strangely lackluster – but still interesting – note, with the first ever animated appearance of Hobie Brown as The Prowler, voiced by Tim Russ! We get some noir-style flashbacks and narration, but we don’t get the social commentary or characterization we were hoping for. Plus, we discuss our overall feelings on this fun, weird, and unexpected penultimate season! We’re watching Spider-Man: The Animated Series: season 4, episode 11: “Partners in Danger Chapter XI: The Prowler”.

Peter and Mary Jane are getting married in a month (!!!) and they immediately have their new dynamic tested thanks to an underground society of lizard people living in the sewers! And through a very classic sci-fi tale, we get to see women like MJ, Debra Whitman, and Margaret Connors absolutely kick ass. We’re watching Spider-Man: The Animated Series: season 4, episode 10: “Partners in Danger Chapter X: The Lizard King”. ⁠Website⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠ Contact us: @WallopingWebPod on ⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠ Email: ⁠⁠wallopingwebsnapperspodcast@gmail.com⁠⁠ Theme song features: ⁠“Resonance (Cyan & Ladybot Remix)” by HOME⁠ | ⁠⁠License (CC BY 3.0)⁠
