IGN have released more quotes from the latest quarterly publication of "D23: The Official Disney Fan Club", this time featuring Jeph Loeb talking about the upcoming
Ultimate Spider-Man animated series. While the title of the show provoked many fans who aren't all that keen on the comic book series of the same name, the recently leaked test footage seemingly changed a lot of peoples minds.
"We have an incredible writing staff including Brian Michael Bendis who has written every single issue of Ultimate Spider Man, more than 150 issues in 10 years, Paul Dini, and Man of Action."
"What we're doing is putting together the coolest Spider-Man animated series that we can. This is a first step in what we want to define as Marvel animation and will capture the look and feel of the comics as the movies have captured the look and feel of the comics."
"Like the comic and the upcoming movie, we're dealing with Peter Parker in high school, trying to balance his life between being a normal teenager and becoming the ultimate Spider-Man. This is the story of Spider-Man trying to become the best hero that he can. And work his way up to the major league guys like Captain American and Iron Man and The Avengers."
Marvel's head of television apparently wrapped up the interview with the promise of more great things to come next year (
"2012 is when they're going to get to see this incredibly awesome stuff that we've been working on.") so perhaps we'll be getting news of those live action TV shows sooner rather than later!
