San Diego Comic-Con is fully underway and Marvel Studios is ready to take the stage in Ballroom 20 for their first presentation of the weekend, the Marvel Studios Animation panel!

As for what to expect from the hour-long presentation, here's the official SDCC description, "Marvel Studios head of streaming, television and animation Brad Winderbaum; head of visual development Ryan Meinerding; and special guests dive into all things animation with exclusive looks at X-Men 97, Marvel Zombies, What If…? season 2, and more."

While updates on X-Men '97 and What If...? season two were givens, Marvel Zombies is a welcome addition and while they don't explicitly state it, it's a pretty safe bet that we'll also be getting a major update on the highly-anticipated Spider-Man: Freshman Year. Whether trailers or concept art is released to the public remains to be seen, but be sure to stay tuned into CBM for the biggest updates as they happen.

There's a strong possibility we'll get casting news on all of the aforementioned shows, and we wouldn't put it past Marvel Studios to surprise with a possible new series announcement or two.

I feel like I'm in the minority here, but I legit enjoyed What If more than I expected to. Especially episodes 4 and 8.

@Waddles -

I'm by no means saying that it was balanced all around, but I legit feel that Cthulu Strange and Ultron vs Uatu alone make the whole series a must watch.

I am straight up worried about X-MEN '97 show. I was young and remember the premiere date of the original X-MEN cartoon when I was a kid. It was a big deal back in the 90's and it was great how closely the show runners tried to follow the comic books. After looking and reading the twitter page of some of the new writers/producers of this show I have a feeling they are going to mess up the show and self inject their own beliefs, views into the characters and this show and mess up the show.

@MCUKnight11 - I don't think they'd want to overshadow Spider-Man: Freshman Year lol
MCUKnight11
MCUKnight11 - 7/22/2022, 2:59 PM
@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - You say that like we aren't getting both X-men 97 and MCU mutants within the coming years.

@MCUKnight11 - we would all like it to happen but its not gonna happen

Disney owns the tv rights to spiderman

Sony owns Spectacular Spiderman

Disney cant make spectacular spiderman

Sony cant produce new episodes of spectacular spiderman

Plus disney has their own spiderman show so doubt they will want to make another deal

I enjoy What if but I hope they go crazier with the concepts in season 2.

Hopefully what if season 2 is better, outside of maybe 2 episodes, every episode of season 1 felt so rushed

That DD suit is kind of tough. Wonder if we get that for the MCU version. Love how its a homage to the Netflix suit

I don't care how much this doesn't make sense, Charlie is back again!

@GhostDog - Deserves it after how dirty Netflix did him after season 3.
GhostDog
GhostDog - 7/22/2022, 3:22 PM
Didn't expect much of this show but with the fact that it seems to be on another earth, the concept, the villains involved and the cast, this is more exciting than the cinematic Spidey right now

That Strange art makes me want an animated show for him.

THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 7/22/2022, 3:23 PM
Is it confirmed that Spider-Man takes place before Civil War? Because it seems like this is a sequel to NWH and that it's Freshman year of college, not high school.
GhostDog
GhostDog - 7/22/2022, 3:27 PM
@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - its got to be another universe.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 7/22/2022, 3:51 PM
@GhostDog - Ah yes. In the following article it looks like they're recreating the Civil War apartment scene with Norman Osborn instead of Tony.

So no way is Freshman year set in the MCU 616 right? Suits don’t look at all homemade in the same way his first one was, he meets villains we know he doesn’t until later, plus Strange. Tbh this is probably a better way to go since it seems like before Stark recruits him he was just fighting robbers and stuff.
