Ultimate Spider-Man: Season Two Clip Released

Marvel Television has released a new clip from the upcoming second season of their hit animated series Ultimate Spider-Man.This year, it sounds as though Peter Parker is stepping up to the responsibility of leading Marvel’s younger heroes, as well as (according to Jeph Loeb) teaming up with the Guardians of the Galaxy.Here, Otto Octavius (the Superior Spider-Man, better known as Dr. Octopus) is set up as the genetic mastermind behind creating an army of villains based on animal powers, like The Rhino and The Lizard. Oops. Check it out, and the official description, below.

On his journey to become the Ultimate Hero, Peter Parker has handled tough challenges. From learning to team up with fellow Super Heroes (including The Avengers!), to fighting baddies from across the Marvel Universe, to remembering to pick up groceries for Aunt May, Spidey thought he had things all webbed up.  Now in Season 2, his world’s been turned upside down as his teammates become roommates, and they’re left to face foes without the help of S.H.I.E.L.D. But when iconic Marvel villains like The Lizard, Kraven, Electro, the Rhino and Doc Ock team up to take on the young heroes, it’s time for Spidey to discover the “great responsibility” of being a leader.
