This article contains spoilers for "your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man".

Everyone knows the origin of Spider-Man; A nervous kid from Queens becomes a bit of a radioactive spider, getting super strong, hugging walls, web-related superpowers used to combat crime (of course in red and blue spandex).

"Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man", the newly prime animated series, mixes the famous blows. In this version, Peter Parker (Hudson Thames) does not bite the spider in a school field trip lab. On his first day at Midtown High School, Dr. Stringed (Robin Atkin Downs) comes out of the portal fighting what seems to be the symbol monster, if not the poison itself. The spider comes out of the portal, and after the battle is over, it bites it. Smash dropped to a few weeks later, when Peter became Spider-Man.

The current comic book "Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider" It fills the gaps and confirms something I set out later in the episode. Here is an important detail: Peter Ben's uncle. Now he is doing it There are ... or do. In the opening minutes of the show, when Aunt May (Curry Valgren) drives Peter to school, they vaguely mention Ben's passing. before Peter became Spiderman.

Look, adaptations can and should make changes, but this is storytelling. Spider-Man that has a dead uncle is not just a little backsters to check the list. The important part is How Ben died, and he himself was indirectly guilty of not stopping the man who continued to kill Ben.

"Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man" withdraws much of the Spider-Man version of Marvel Cinematic Universe, played by Tom Holland. These films have earned some controversy (or at least confusion) by Speedy Fans for never calling for Uncle Ben. Instead, Peter seems to learn "with great power comes great responsibility" since May (Marisa Tomei) in Spiderman: No way at home " - More precisely his failure to stop Green Goblin (Willem Dapho) to kill her.

The exclusion of Uncle Ben, for me, feels reactionary on Andrew Garfield led by The films "Amazing Spiderman", which never stripped off even when they made money. Part of those films went down to the wrong foot is that the first film repeated Peter's origin as Spiderman, including the death of Uncle Ben (Martin Sheen), won for Beat. This is even yet Sam Raimi's original film "Spiderman" was only 10 years old and still well appreciated -From the very beginning, the "incredible Spiderman" was discussing its surplus.

Because the audience has already seen Uncle Ben died, twice, Sony and Marvel Studios have apparently taken the lesson not to show him in the films "Spider-Man" in the Netherlands. People know the essence and can assume that a version of Ben's death was going beyond the screen, before meeting Peter of the Netherlands in Captain America: Civil War.

But "your friendly neighboring spider" takes this further-and too far. Spider-Man has the perfect story of origin, one that covers how he is more vulnerable And more heroically because he is a lack of personality, capable of making mistakes And Amazing feats.

One part of the writing tips that gets stuck is, if you want to give your character effective backstew, don't write that something bad has happened to them. Write that they have done a Choosing It had bad consequences and now they think it should make up for it. The origin of Spider-Man is as an example of this. If Peter Parker does not receive a painful liability lesson and why he must help others, then he feels like he is just a spider-man about it. I think, by chance, this is the implication of "your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man" created for yourself.

"Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man" is transmitted to Disney+, with new episodes released in series of two on Wednesday.
