When Jeff Trammell landed the job of creating Marvel Studios' animated series "Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man" (premiering today), he stepped into the most fertile creative period for the web-slinging superhero in his 63-year history.

But the most similar origin story to the one shown in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is actually that of Miles Morales in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, where he’s bitten by a spider from a different dimension.

The premiere episode of Marvel's animated Spider-Man show pinballs between being an MCU cover band and doing its own thing.
