The show’s first episode premiere was broadcast in its entirety. I’ll only mention that the Vulture is in it and is voiced by Robert Englund (yes, him). My first impression is that the show really puts into focus the feel for the original comic book and not the movies or the popular early '90s animated series. While not as flashy as the long defunked Spider-Man series on MTV (which the panel addresses) and not as broody as the aforementioned '90s series, this new series seems to have a clear focus. The panel later said that one goal was to maintain the legend of Spider-Man while also keeping it contemporary.
It should be noted that the channel WB Kids is folding next year. Moderator Michael Vogel assured the crowd that the first 13 episodes will play on the channel and that another 13 episodes are currently in production and will be shown in some form, hopefully on television.
I’ll leave on the note that Venom should not be mentioned to any of the panel members.
