Marvel Studios has revealed a tonne of new details about Spider-Man: Freshman Year at Comic-Con, including season 2 plans, a first look at the show's characters and villains, and an unexpected revelation.

Spider-Man: Freshman Year was showcased at Comic-Con earlier today, and before we get to the good news, we'll start with the bad: the Disney+ animated series will not be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The assumption had been that the show would serve as a prequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming, but we now know that's not the case. 

It's a shame, and something of a missed opportunity, but Marvel Studios more than made up for that with some big reveals during their Hall H presentation. 

For starters, Norman and Harry Osborn will be in the show, with the former serving as Peter Parker's mentor. With Oscorp backing him, the web-slinger will don all manner of costumes, some of which you can see below. Amadeus Cho and Runaways character Nico Minuro will join Peter in high school, while Spidey will be squaring off with some of his most iconic foes. 

Among them will be Doctor Octopus, Chameleon, and the Scorpion, and Spider-Man will have some backup in the form of Doctor Strange and Daredevil. Charlie Cox will return to lend his voice to the Man Without Fear and, as you can see below, the hero will have a new black costume (but still no "DD" logo on his chest for some reason).

It's also been confirmed that Spider-Man: Freshman Year will premiere in 2024, with a second season - titled Spider-Man: Sophomore Year - following in the not too distant future.

Check out a first look at the Disney+ series below:

Didin;t expect much from this but it looks really interesting. A lot of potential here and way more intriguing than what his happening with Spidey in the movies. Has to be another universe too.

Glad Cox is back and that suit is a great homage to the Netflix attire. Wouldn't mind it as the MCU live action attire.

I guess Otto's doctorate is in dentistry.

Future Foundation suit?!

Reeds2Much - 7/22/2022, 4:13 PM
@DrReedRichards - I'm a little disappointed that they're showing the Prodigy, Dusk, and Hornet suits but not Ricochet.
DrReedRichards - 7/22/2022, 4:14 PM
@Reeds2Much -

Ricochet has always had such a Gambit vibe to me, in a good way. Agile bad boy.

This has definitely caught my attention. Those suits were a fun different take on Spider-Man having him portraying multiple superheroes. I like the DD suit too, definitely has a Netflix DD vibe and that’s a good thing for me. 👍

I like the older looking art design for the characters. I hope the animation is good enough though.
TheSuperMex - 7/22/2022, 3:50 PM
Kinda bummed it’s not canon to the MCU. The art looks nice. Looks like those old school 70s/80s cartoons.
TheSuperMex - 7/22/2022, 3:52 PM
Osborn lookin fresh as [frick]

@TheSuperMex - I'm hoping Deadpool is in the series to adapt his reaction to the Osborn haircut.

I don't like Marvel's insistence on forcing Amadeus Cho into a supporting character for Peter Parker as opposed to Bruce Banner... Cho was also on Ultimate Spider-man but no where to be seen on Hulk and the agents of S.M.A.S.H. and appeared on Marvel's Spider-man with little to no reference on his affiliation with Banner. Why not also use Jim WIlson, Rick Jones, and the whole damn Teen Brigade while you're at it?







Finally though, another animated depiction of Daredevil which perhaps will lead to Daredevil finally getting his own long overdue animated series. Hopefully that show will feature the more fantastical and silly villains instead of just Fisk, FIsk, and more Fisk....

I love the character designs. Modern and retro at the same time.
MarioT1000 - 7/22/2022, 7:23 PM
@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - looks like Adventure Bros 😂
Repian - 7/22/2022, 3:55 PM
An animated series would have been the perfect opportunity to wear the cartoonish yellow suit.
soberchimera - 7/22/2022, 4:11 PM
@Repian - Daredevil's yellow suit is like Batman's purple gloves. It was a trial and error design in the character's early days.

This is the fourth year in a row I've tried to get two mother [frick]ing passes. Stop going back every year so I can go! Ffs

@bobevanz - I'll have the last laugh, I'm getting a bot for online shopping.. your days are numbered SDCC

Something tells me DD will be a rookie hero of sorts when he runs into Spidey. Something they will bond over maybe.
