Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manhas already been confirmed for a second and third time of year , which intend Peter Parker ’s journeying is far from over . time of year 1 ended with some major cliffhangers , while Peter Parker became a fully - fledge Spider - Man after battle the the likes of of the Unicorn , the Scorpion , Speed Demon , Tarantula and a Venom - like Symbiote , among others , over the course of ten episodes . Some of these episode were strong and more entertaining than others , but each of them prepare this newSpider - Man story in the MCU ’s Multiverse Saga .
10Episode 5, “The Unicorn Unleashed!”
Mila Masaryk’s Story In “The Unicorn Unleashed!” Was Underwhelming
Slap bang in the halfway ofYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manseason 1 was episode 5 , " The Unicorn Unleashed ! , " which played more like a case - of - the - week story as Spider - Man went toe - to - toe with Mila Masaryk ’s titular laser - helmeted Unicorn . sequence 5 is the bad - though still not high-risk - episode ofYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manseason 1 as it ’s the only instalment that could be removed from the season without making much difference . No Brobdingnagian set - up take place in the installment , and the Unicorn storyline is unnecessary and underwhelming .
In Marvel Comics , it ’s Soviet Union tidings police officer Milos Masaryk , introduce in 1964’sTales of Suspense # 56,who becomes the Unicorn by wear out technology designed by Iron Man villain Crimson Dynamo .
Despite its pitfall , " The Unicorn Unleashed ! " is still a playfulness watch . It was great to see the relationship betweenPeter Parker and Harry Osbornget get , while the tension between Parker and Nico Minoru increase . to boot , Otto Octavius ' foundation , albeit abbreviated , was exciting for the season ’s subsequent episodes . This episode did mark the official debut of Mac Gargan , who played a pivotal role in the remainder of the season as the Scorpion , so it ’s still deserving the picket , but " The Unicorn Unleashed ! " pale in comparing to other episode ofYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Man .
9Episode 2, “The Parker Luck”
“The Parker Luck” Set Up Plot Threads For The Rest Of The Season
Despite some concerns about the new version of the rampart - crawling hero , 2025 ’s first Spider - Man passing has turn out to be pretty large .
It ’s a testament toYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manthat even one of the worst episodes is still an pleasurable vigil . Peter Parker struggling to poise his personal and professional life story , Lonnie Lincoln ’s development as an allyto Parker , the set - up of Otto Octavius ' activities behind the view and the proper introduction of Norman Osborn were all magnificent to see . “The Parker Luck " just did n’t include much in - depth exploration of Spider - Man ’s story , which made it feel a short underwhelmingcompared to other , stronger episodes .
8Episode 3, “Secret Identity Crisis”
Norman Osborn Proved To Be A Strong Mentor To Peter Parker
After encounter out Peter Parker ’s identity operator as Spider - Man at the end of episode 2 , Norman Osborn got far more attention inYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manepisode 3 , " Secret Identity Crisis , " which give to a substantial installment . Colman Domingo ’s Norman Osbornis suave , advanced and captivating , soit was keen to see him get more development here , particularly as an friend to Spider - Man who seemed to require what ’s good for the new wall - crawler . However , instalment 3 is n’t without its flaws , most notably the inclusion body of Tarantula and Speed Demon as scoundrel .
While Tarantula and Speed Demon ’s inclusion in " Secret Identity Crisis " began to go down up Otto Octavius ' unveiling later in the season , these pocket-sized antagonist were seriously lackluster and inconsequent , mystify little terror to Spider - Man and making much no mark on the season . The establishment of Lonnie Lincoln as part of the hundred-and-tenth Street gang in this episode , however , was a high point . The grounded nature of this episode meant that it is n’t as exciting asYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Man’ssubsequent installation .
7Episode 4, “Hitting The Big Time”
Spider-Man’s New Costumes Brought Fun To The Season
While notable heroes of themainstream MCU timeline had been mentionedinYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Man’searly episode , sequence 4 , " Hitting the Big Time , " marked the greatest convergence of these alternate timeline . This episode unfolded before long after the implementation of the Sokovia Accords and the Avengers ' Civil War at the Leipzig / Halle Airport , which this interlingual rendition of Spider - Man was not involved in , unlike his MCU counterpart . These MCU references were a welcome addition to the Multiverse Saga serial , while the installment ’s core storylines were also interesting .
The Sokovia Accords were introduced to the MCU in 2016’sCaptain America : Civil Waralongside Tom Holland ’s Spider - Man . She - Hulk : Attorney at Lawrevealed that the Sokovia Accords had been repealed after the five - class - long pip .
This instalment marked a shift inYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manseason 1 , asPeter Parker officially dove head - first into his partnership with Norman Osborn , and Lonnie Lincoln became a more constituted member of the 110th Street gang . Watching Peter Parker adjudicate out unlike costumes and get into shaky situations was screaming , and it was very square to see him ultimately bring down on hisblack - and - white Oscorp costume . " Hitting the Big Time " also marked the debut of Otto Octavius , which was a very exciting developing for the serial publication .

6Episode 8, “Tangled Web”
Struggle Defines Peter Parker’s Spider-Man In “Tangled Web”
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manepisode 8 , " tousle connection , " perfectly prepare the phase for the time of year ’s epical double - finish , and arguably defined Spider - Man as a fibre more than any other installment . Peter Parker ’s story is often underlined by tragedy and struggle , and this was put front - and - midpoint in " knot Web"as he mete out with the aftermath of his battle against the Scorpion and his serious accidental injury . This battle was also reflected in Lonnie Lincoln ’s taradiddle , as he officially break away up with Pearl to consecrate his fourth dimension to the hundred-and-tenth Street gang , cementing his destiny as a future villain .
Marvel just give one of Spider - Man ’s biggest comical scoundrel one of the franchise ’s most iconic argumentation , and changed it to have a very different message .
One of the highlights of thisYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider - Manepisode , and indeed the full time of year , was theappearance of Tony Stark ’s Iron Manduring the collar of Otto Octavius . voice byWhat If … ?‘sMick Wingert , it ’s slap-up to see Iron Man still have a prominent persona in the MCU even six years after Robert Downey Jr. ’s exit .

" This episode feature two core storyline , one which saw Harry Osborn and Nico Minoru bond after the latter see of Peter Parker ’s activities as Spider - Man , and the other featuringSpider - Man go up against the Scorpionfor the first time . It was great to see Harry and Nico get some human development and start to become unwavering friends in this episode , in particular since they find common ground where there did n’t seem to be any , butthe Spider - Man vs. Scorpion battle was this instalment ’s strongest episode .
Michael Mando impersonate Mac Gargan in 2017’sSpider - Man : Homecoming , and was teased to be becoming a major Spider - Man villain in the picture show ’s post - credits scene , but this is yet to occur to realization in the MCU .
Peter Parker and Norman Osborn study well as a squad to battle Scorpion , that is until Osborn becomes distrait with try out to find Otto Octavius , which gives Mac Gargan an opportunity to stab Spider - Man and leave him seriously injured . This was a well - vivify , thinking - through and powerful battle scene that express the flaw of Spider - Man ’s partnership with Norman Osborn . " Scorpion Rising " may have teased this relationship not lasting much longer , however , as the episode featured the first appearance ofOsborn ’s Green Goblin glider , which was fabulously exciting .
