Doc Ock making bad quips! Chonky Lizard with nipples! The Spider-Trio! Norman Osborn being a despicable mastermind! A kaiju fight! As the four-part Ock arc continues, this episode has everything.

Y’all know we’ve been waiting for this one – a FOUR-PART arc focusing on our boy Doctor Octopus! Though the 2017 series has a drastically different Otto from what we’re used to, his origin is surprisingly familiar... until its turn to a maybe-sorta-kinda hero story for Doc Ock sets it apart. (Also, Crimson Dynamo is there.)
Walloping Websnappers #146: “The Rise of Doc Ock, Part One”
We return to the 2017 series with a fun, entertaining episode featuring Screwball (and her surprising new secret identity)! It’s all about the importance of journalism, how to be an activist, the dangers of internet fame, the effects of gifted programs, and… actually, maybe this episode is about a little bit too much stuff.
Walloping Websnappers #145: “Screwball Live”
You asked, we answered! Topics in our first main feed AMA include: Spider-Man fan films, Ben Reilly, Stranger Things 4, Obi Wan Kenobi, Doctor Who (and why we love the Capaldi era), Amelia Earhart and alien abductions, Chrono Cross, Survivor, kitchen appliances, our essence candles, tiny guys inside of regular-sized guys, and much much more!
Walloping Websnappers: “Ask Us Anything #15”
MTV’s Spider-Man ends with a finale that perfectly encapsulates all the worst parts of this series: messy, violent, nihilistic, poorly-written, and bad to its women.
Walloping Websnappers #144: “Mind Games, Part 2”
The two-part finale of MTV’s Spider-Man begins with a mind-bendy fantasy featuring two villains named Sergei (one played by Spike and the other played by Worf), another villain played by Kathy Griffin (!!!), and quite possibly the creepiest Stan Lee cameo.
Walloping Websnappers #143: “Mind Games, Part 1”
Electro’s back, and in a clever bit of continuity, he’s after Sally – the previously unnamed girl that smiled at him literally one time. And despite some of this show’s usual writing weaknesses and odd choices, there’s plenty to keep us pretty electrified.
Walloping Websnappers #142: “When Sparks Fly”
Peter and his friends get entangled in Silver Sable’s assassination plot, which sticks Spidey into a political spy thriller and proves to be more complicated than anyone thought. Despite the clunky not-quite-a-pun title, this one’s pretty good!
Walloping Websnappers #141: “Spider-Man Dis-Sabled”
Flash Thompson gets a brain upgrade from the Re-Animator in a cartoonishly fun episode that feels pulled out of 80s Saturday morning cartoon fare! We discuss this show’s weird identity, Devon Sawa's teen heartthrob origins, why Peter and Indy make such a good pairing, and more.
