Leading that effort is Peter Parker himself, voiced byRobbie Daymond.

For many of us, the Marvel comics were our first introductions to Spider-Man.

I started reading the Maximum Carnage series.

That just really hooked me as an 11 or 12-year-old boy.

Spider-Man quickly became my favorite superhero.

That was my introduction into it.

That’s a strong story to start your Spider-Man fandom with!

(Don’t expect Cletus Kasady to show up anytime soon.)

I think thats always been the greatest thing about the character.

Hes not Bruce Wayne, he doesnt have unlimited resources.

Hes not Clark Kent, hes not super-powered and godlike.

How does he become self-sufficient?

I think thats one of the coolest parts about the dynamic between Peter and his life as Spider-Man.

The show does a great job of focusing on that.

So what makes this version of Peter different?

Daymond: The challenge is to take a familiar story and make it fresh and new.

Every time Id get a new episode arc, I would get excited.

Oh, this isthatarc!

And I knew them from the comics, but the way that its handled is completely new and unique.

Its evocative without being derivative, its a fresh approach of a story we know with familiar characters.

In different comic iterations he works at Horizon Lab and thats where he should be.

So on this show, they really wanted to make that a central theme for the episodes.

Believe it or not, this isn’t Daymond’s first time voicing Peter Parker or Spider-Man.

Daymond: I dont really connect them.

I even did a slightly different voice; I think Peter was college-age or post-college in that show.

Josh Keatons a great friend and a great Spider-Man.

I love John DiMaggio as The Jackal.

Hes just such an iconic and veteran voice actor.

He has a really great take on The Jackal.

Hes just the sweetest kid.

Its a great cast to work with.

One of my really good friends is Harry Osborn, Max Mittelman.

I think our relationship in this first season is maybe my favorite part of the show as a whole.

They did a great job of fleshing that out in this first season.

What does Daymond hope to see further down the road?

Daymond: The Maximum Carnage or a Carnage arc of some kind.

I would love to see that.

Before Carnage, you gotta have Venom.

I know thats been announced and I really think fans should be pumped about his appearance in the show.

Thats a really exciting arc; the black suit arc is really a blast.

They should be on the lookout for really familiar arcs from more recent comics.

Im really, really excited about all of that.
