What happens

Ultimate Spider-Man (titled Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors for the third season and Ultimate Spider-Man vs. the Sinister 6 for its final season) is an American superhero animated television series broadcast on the cable network Disney XD, based on the Spider-Man comics published by Marvel Comics. The series featured writers such as Brian Michael Bendis (who also created the comic book series of the same name), Paul Dini, and Man of Action (a group consisting of Steven T. Seagle, Joe Kelly, Joe Casey, and Duncan Rouleau). It was first announced in summer 2011, and debuted alongside the second season of The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes as part of the Marvel Universe programming block on April 1, 2012. In a break from other series, Spider-Man breaks the fourth wall and speaks directly to the audience. It also includes fantasy sequences from Peter's mind. The series concluded its run on January 7, 2017, with the two-part episode "Graduation Day" with four seasons each consisting of 26 episodes. Reruns continued to air on Disney XD until August 30, 2017. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
