Spider-Who Part 137: Cartoon Ultimate Spider-Man

While we’ve talked about a few “Ultimate” Spider-Men already, the dull red Spider-Man in the page above crawling out from under a web and breaking the fourth wall by talking directly to us, the readers, is the star of the Marvel Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon that airs on the Disney X D channel. He showed up in Spider-Verse along side the real comic book Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles Morales, to traverse the multi-verse to find other Spider-Men to join the fight against the Inheritors.

This Peter Parker is known for having a sense of humour that ranges from goofball to utter stupidity. With a very slapstick sense of humour, plenty of other bizarre things happen in the show, notably being that this Spider-Man will often change into a tiny chibi version of himself, though I’m unsure if this is just for “comedic” effect, or if other characters in the show notice this too. This basically leads me to believe this Peter Parker is on the verge of becoming actually insane. But then that’s just me taking the idea of Spider-Man WAAAY too seriously, and if there’s an audience out there who likes this show, all the better. The more Spider-Man fans there are in the world, the better I say. Along with that stuff, and breaking the fourth wall all the time, he also makes weird monkey noises when surprised, and generally does things that could only happen in a cartoon.

It should be pointed out that in the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, they recently had a very similar event to Spider-Verse happen in the show where they traveled through dimensions to find other versions of Spider-Men to fight a common foe, though it wasn’t the Inheritors.
