>Face it, tiger. You just hit the jackpot. The third season of Marvel's Spider-Man: Maximum Venom kicks off on Disney XD at 9 p.m. ET/PT on April 19, the company revealed Thursday. It'll see the first appearance of Mary Jane Watson (played by The Guild's Felicia Day) in the animated show.
It consists of six hour-long specials, with Spider-Man and his allies battling an earth-shattering threat summoned to Earth by Venom -- he's presumably called a whole bunch of symbiotes.
>The animated series, which has been running since 2017, is set in its own continuity (so it isn't linked to the Marvel Cinematic Universe). It features Spidey allies Gwen Stacy and Miles Morales and heroes including Captain Marvel, Dr. Strange and Star-Lord.
Along with Mary Jane, Season 3 will bring in Ironheart (also known as Riri Williams, played by Sofia Wylie) and symbiote sisters Scream, Scorn and Mania (played by Meg Donnelly, Kylee Russell and Carla Jeffery).
It looks like this season will offer plenty of symbiote action -- the poster features "Venomized" versions of Captains Marvel, Captain America and Iron Man.
...what? Is there seriously a spider-man cartoon that's made it a whole 2 seasons without me ever having heard of it or did they just rebrand something else?
How is it?
Ethan Evans
It's Marvel's Spider-Man. Like Ultimate, it just rebrands after two seasons to push a new gimmick.
It's okay. It's kind of mediocre and it doesn't know what it wants to be, but it's watchable unlike the earlier seasons of USM.
Brandon Lee
>It'll see the first appearance of Mary Jane Watson Booo. Why can't it be Liz?
Jack Taylor
They had Liz. She was kinda cute, but she did nothing. They randomly made her Screwball for one episode, then forgot about her after that.
That was part of the issue of Pete going to Horizon high and all his classic school friends getting removed from the cast entirely. It was fine to mix it up for the sake of the show but not with introducing all the classic friends/acquaintances and give them unique designs and their own voice actors then ship Pete off somewhere else.
They really should've extended the Superior arc or at least have Pete spend a few episodes back in Midtown after that ended before going back to Horizon. I wanted Ock to make his own Superior group of heroes with Screwball, Cloak and Dagger, and some other Midtown character to fight the spider squad plus robot Pete.
Connor Johnson
Yeah, there were a lot of missed chances in season two. I would've taken a longer Superior arc, especially since the Regent and Goblin stuff after was really lame. Who the fuck approved Adrian Toomes as the final boss of the season?
The series knws what it wants to be. It's original and new
But that is why she would be a more developed character if they have Liz fill the MJ role. Have her be a kind of tsundere character that is being mean to Peter as a way to express her love for him
I like the series becaue it did things very original that's not a typical formula. Not many kids today are interested in the more classic formula which many older fans are familiar with. It needed a new directionthat isn't following too much of the comic formula, and it became a more newer and enjoyable series to watch

>Female symbiotes in animated form
Fuck yeah!
>the only R34 this show gets is of that fat old fuck Max Modell
le sigh

>didn't make her super buff and manly >almost certainly not yandere for spidey not muh venomcarol.
Disney XD has been a dying network for at least 2-3 years.
Even as someone who despises the animation, Hulk and the Agents of SMASH had surprisingly decent ratings despite it looking worse than this.
Ian Lewis
I kind of like the idea of a minor villain who reforms, is tempted back into evil, and becomes a bigger threat than before. The problem is that Vulture was very boring in this show and that never changed.
What's the best Spidey animated to watch? There's a few on Disney plus.
Daniel Brooks
Spectacular Spiderman was brilliant, but...it was yet another fucking spiderman back in highschool. Fucks sake, spiderman in highschool has always been shit and they dumped that bullshit quickly in the comics for a reason. The original is watchable and informed a lot of modern Marvel cartoons... But it's fairly weak
Chase Lopez
>but...it was yet another fucking spiderman back in highschool.
It was literally the first Spider-Man cartoon set in high school. All other ones before then have been in college or beyond.
Carson Mitchell
Disney XD is still alive?
Jace Baker
I will forever be pissed that they cancelled spectacular spider-man
Brayden Wood
>Most popular girl >School mascot
Ohnononono she will be a black nerd like in the MCU, right?
Parker Davis
>Felicia Day
I would come up with something clever to say but I can't. Her career is dead. The appex of her career was a Syfy movie. She isn't even pretty enough to sell out to porn for one more minute in the spotlight.
>Mary Jane Watson (played by The Guild's Felicia Day)
Fuck, they ruined it! I actually don't outright hate Felicia Day, but her nervy forced enthusiasm and forty year old voice are a fit for bad Mary Jane.
She didn't sound bad in Stretch Armstrong, but she sounded more like a Gwen-style than MJ. I always thought MJ should sound a bit flirty and Spectacular got that right.
Those were different times. If they made a big deal about a prominent female character, only to be voiced by a white voice actress these days, the crowds would cry blackface or something.
...best anime of the year and the manga sold 20 million copies and Disney is still doing these bad comics and poor animations youtube.com/watch?v=35MFkLCFODg
Now look at this unadulterated litteral faggotry and bitchery the loser cunts in amurica are doing. I'm fucking EMBARASSED of the so called female creatives in America goddamnit The fuck are these bitches doing?
John Mitchell
God, that show sucked ass. They didn't even have the guts to make a symbiote with a female-host look monstrous.
Xavier Watson
after watching kimetsu no yaiba season 1 i was watching the videos reactions of the episodes, amazing how women love the story youtube.com/watch?v=k-vReRR-CI8 youtube.com/watch?v=uTTtxF0ryFE At Marvel something was lost in these 10 years, they have the money and the people to do a spectacular job but they apparently know and don't care about it
Ayden Garcia
Disney should have a Marvel animated universe and target teen and adult audiences. Kids like this more than this garbage they've been doing with Spider-Man for ages.
Yup. Now they're having EVERYONE, even the heroes with unique powers, get symbiotes.
All for toys, of course. Seriously, Marvel has been shilling this season hard because they're making a lot of toys and merch for it.
Lincoln Young
It has an average rating, and most of them tend to watch online. Other then that it's not so bad and it's building
Not everyone cared about Mary Jane Watson at this point. Especially with young kids. That character has appeared too much in literally every version of Spider-Man she has been in. And the fact that she's still in Midtown while Peter is in Horizon shows they won't really interact much
Besides, seeing the two season MJ wasn't really needed at all in the story
Aiden Sanders
That's Ultimate Spider-Man
The current one is not so bad
Logan Carter
>It has an average rating
Ratings below 0.5 means it's doing terrible. You can enjoy the show all you like, but children are barely seeing it. The little fanbase it has is teens shipping.
The fact that they're pirating it instead of watching it on TV isn't encouraging either.
Wyatt Wright
Large fanbases tend to be full of cancer anyways. Look at Steven Universe's and Rick & Morty's.
Better to enjoy something niche with a niche crowd.
Jonathan White
>shared universe >basically another fucking Spider-man or Avengers cartoon No thanks. Give me a Ghost Rider or Punisher cartoon.
Yeah, but they barely did anything with her. She's made two appearances and in the second one, it's a short where she's just stealing money from a hot dog eating contest.
Adam Gonzalez
It was my favorite cartoon channel until Disney Channel gutted it, took all of the new original premieres and turned it into a dead rerun channel.
