Synopsis

Spider-Man invents the Spider-Tracer, a high-tech tracking device he plans to plant on fleeing villains. He upgrades the Tracer with technology from Stark Industries without Tony Stark's permission, accidentally giving it the ability to produce multiple copies of itself. Disgruntled Stark Industries scientist Michael Tan uses a machine of his invention to separate his own atoms, and his consciousness takes control of the Spider-Tracers, creating a living swarm driven by hatred towards Tony Stark.

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.
