Production notes

Announced by President of Marvel Animation Eric S. Rollman as a 26-episode series.

The centerpiece of an upcoming Marvel programming block on Disney XD, this series follows Peter Parker who, as the storyline begins, has been Spider-Man for just one year. He's fought villains, saved lives, but still has much to learn about being a superhero. Now, Nick Fury gives Peter the chance to go to the next level- to train to be a real superhero and become The Ultimate Spider-Man. But before he can do that, Peter will have to learn how to work with a team of fellow teenage superheroes.
