It's been a long time since Spider-Man starred in an animated series that adults could enjoy just as much as kids, and, unfortunately, it looks like we'll be waiting a little bit longer for something as good as The Spectacular Spider-Man. However, parents looking to get your children on board with the wall-crawler's world will likely want to keep an eye on this show.

Titled Spidey and his Amazing Friends, Entertainment Weekly has shared a first look at the series in the form of some stills and the catchy theme song. 

Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump was enlisted by Disney to create the theme, and it sounds like he relished the opportunity. "I came in with decades of being a Marvel nerd. But I was like, well, this is probably going to be the first time a lot of kids in this generation are going to see an iteration of Spider-Man," he explains. "What does that mean? There's so much history behind that."

Revealing that he took inspiration from all previous iterations of Spider-Man on screen, the musician adds: "All of those things were swirling around my head in like one minute, you know, and I just sat down and had this explosion of inspiration. Then I just had to scramble to get to the studio to lay it all down. I was so excited at that point."

Stump is also scoring the series, and that means getting the opportunity to work on characters like Miles Morales, Green Goblin, Black Panther, and even a female version of Doctor Octopus! 

A premiere date for Spidey and his Amazing Friends hasn't been set yet, but it's expected to arrive on Disney Channel and Disney Junior later this summer.

They are really trying to push Ms.Marvel in everything. Anyone can convince me that she is not a boring downgrade of Mr Fantastic?

@heyy1 - Read the comics.

@heyy1 - LMAO they're all take-offs of Plastic Man. Elongated Man came before Reed too.

@heyy1 - She is one of the few modern superhero characters, who became popular thanks to the comics rather than high-profile movie/tv-adaptation.

Nowhere near as good as the original theme but whatever, guess it doesn't have to be

This is for very little kids. Worth mentioning for all those that are inevitably going to hate.

I don't like how Gwen and Miles are basically in everything Spidey related now. They're fine characters, but it's too Spider-heavy. What made the original version of this work (and so much of the Bronze Age Spider-Man team-ups) is that Iceman and Firestar were generally a lot more powerful and fantastic while Spidey's powers were sort of niche and weird.

But when everyone is an Amazing Spider-Person, no one is all that Amazing.

That said, these designs are absolutely adorable.

My son is hopefully going to love this. He's still very young and I've basically tried every Spider-Man show to see if any grab his attention. I've not any luck so far, but this could be the one

@ChrisRed - I grew up with shows like Transformers, Thundercats,Battle Of The Planets,He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe,Dungeons And Dragons, Spider-Man And His Amazing Friends.

Then later on watched fantastic shows like Batman The Animated Series,Spider-Man and The X-Men.

Kids today don't have any decent villains in their shows,I can see why anime is so popular.

As a Kids show I dig stuff like this but I wish they would do more serious shows like Avengers EMH and Spectacular as well. Heck just continue where those shows left off and I would be couldn't ask for more, except for a new X-Men show.

I'm thinking my son and I will love watching this together...but that has to be the worst Spider-man show theme song ever.

Young child show not withstanding, I have no idea why everyone keeps trying to put their own spin on Spider-Gwen's costume. It's one of the best designed costumes of the past ten years and no one can not clutter the ever living hell out of it for arbitrary reasons.

Doesn’t matter what the primary target group is for anything—adults have earned the right to hate whatever they want because what’s good for kids should be good for grownups too. Children deserve quality, like all of the beloved and timeless and eternally wonderful, precious stuff I was so fortunate to grow up on. No disposable junk that’s just to shut a kid up for a bit, but masterpieces one can enjoy even more as an adult. Anyway. Idgaf about this particular one. Juss sayin.
