You gotta give Christopher Daniel Barnes credit. Even when the material isn’t great, he still gives it his all.

Spider Carnage is such an awesome character in the animated series. The moment where he meets Uncle Ben and realises all the wrong he’s done is beautiful.

I was suprised you didnt mention the evil CEO Peter Parker from Edge of Time. Wolf Spider's design is clearly inspired by him and him playing mind games with Spider Man 2099 until Miguel actually surpasses him in combat while throughout the game the 616 Spidey keeps saying how Miguel doesnt understand what the title of Spider Man means was a story I always thought needed to be put into the comic canon. Plus, Atrocity looks downright horrifying. Seriously, I once had a nightmare about him as a kid.

Gwen being a normal human who gets her powers from her suit is actually pretty in-line with how Gwen actually operated in her comics at the time. She had her powers absorbed by her universe's Silk and thus resorted to wearing the Venom Symbiote and eventually learned to control it enough to turn it into a perfect replica of her suit. As far as I know she still uses Venom to this day rather than her own powers. I never would have expected Ultimate Spider-Man of all shows to be that accurate beyond the stuff that is common knowledge about Gwen, so it was funny learning that they kept that consistent with the comics.

I think Spider-Carnage has the better backstory and overall character, but I can't help but adore Dark Peter's design in all his edgelord glory.

CEO Peter Parker from Edge of Time is still the best evil version of Spider-man, hand down. With how minimal his screen time, he is just godly characterized and his dark impulses align wonderfully with main Peter's struggle.

Christopher Daniel Barnes kills it. That man put his all in every role.

I refuse to call Gwen “Ghost-Spider”, she is Spider-Gwen for marketing, Spider-Woman in-universe.

I really hope that Wolf-Spider makes a return one day, maybe even being integrated into the comics. Imagine the F4 and/or The Avengers meeting Wolf-Spider and being shocked of how evil and ruthless this version of Peter is.

I find them bringing in Christopher Daniel Barnes to play Wolf Spider really funny ‘cause it implies that they didn’t think Drake Bell could pull off an evil version of Peter voice despite them looking identical. Like, all the other spider peeps have clearly different facial designs (or never take off their masks), so it makes sense for them to have different VOs. But then these two yahoos come in looking exactly the same and one sounds at least fifteen years older!

4:14 Ironically this is accurate to the characters current status quo. For those that don’t know during the original Spiderverse comic Silk and Gwen got into a fight and during it Silk used a device that stripped Gwen of her abilities. This led to a storyline where Gwen had to deal with her worlds version of Venom. Eventually she bonded with it learned to control it and elected to keep it being the only mainline spider to do so and the suit had been replacating her abilities since.

If I made an evil Spidey, I'd go the Punisher route; a Peter Parker driven to despair and even madness by his guilt over realizing who killed Uncle Ben. A Spider Man who still sees himself as the good guy, despite the fact he's killing criminals with zero mercy.

I still really love Spider-Gwen/Ghost-Spider. I think it was a neat excuse to explore some of the same ideas of the Night Gwen Stacy Died with a modern perspective and some new twists. Because of her status as an off-shoot, they're also more willing to let her character grow and have her status-quo change in ways they don't let Peter Parker's anymore.

I feel like web-beard and cowboy town were done to keep in line with the first spider verse. The writers probably thought since the last one had a cartoony world and a period piece, this one should as well. Also, since the spider boys can’t defeat Peter Darker until they get to miles-tropolis, having some buffer-dimensions adds levity to the whole situation.

A new video from Xavier only the DAY AFTER the last one! THIS IS AMAZING! Spectacular even!

ever since i rewatched Ultimate's 2nd Spider-Verse arc a little thought has been lingering in my head: "what if Wolf Spider came back for Beyond The Spider-Verse?" because despite sharing the name with an already existing character, he's basically his own thing. Plus the conclusion being to fight a absolutely EVIL version of Spidey... yeah cliche would be neato (ok maybe not as *the main* antagonist but maybe... a major one)

Every spider in the Ultimate spiderman the spiderverse event can be found in the comics except for wolfspider. Wolfspider was an original character.

Paul IS. Jokes aside, Marvel editorial sure loves torturing Peter.

Some say he's still chasing Shocker to the ends of the Earth

I know Ultimate Spider-Man wasn't that good, but it was my introduction to the character as a kid. So Wolf Spider will always be cool to me since he basically introduced the idea of Spider-Man being evil to my kid brain. It was nuts.

I'm still impressed Christopher Daniel Barnes still has such a tight connection to this character.

CDB is such a great voice actor, even when the script sucks he still makes it sound like the coolest thing ever

I prefer spider-carnage as the evil Spider-Man and I was hoping across the spider verse villain would be an evil Spider-Man and no 2099 doesn’t count he plays the same role as dr strange did in no way home

Wolf-Spider is a great villain but, I fear Marvel may not try to use him, despite his potential. I know I would enjoy seeing him in bigger and better media.

I think the reasoning to why Wolf Spider's defeat was easy cause Wolf Spider didn't realize, until Spidey worked it out, that Wolf Spider was stealing the life energy from GOOD Spidermen and as a result was poisoning his body with said good energy. Spidey and the Spidermen had to play the waiting game until Wolf Spider's body got so poisoned that it began to break and shatter apart effectively destroying the Evil Spiderman for good and allowing the life force of the Spidermen to return to their bodies easily. Peter Parker has always been a representation in the Spiderverse for good and responsibility and a staple for other Spidermen to follow so for the Spiderverse to have one bad apple in Wolf Spider, it was as if the Spiderverse was dealing with the threat with a way that uses Wolf Spider's lust for power as a means to to destroy him and restore balance in the Spiderverse.

Spider-Carnage will always be my favourite evil Peter Parker tbh

I unironically love the Ultimate Spider-Man series. Just wish Wolf Spider actually survived so we could see him in other stories. To me Wolf Spider will always be the "Dark Link" equivalent of Peter Parker, pure evil, no redeeming qualities, ruthless, and ready to kill at the drop of a pin, which is the polar opposite of normal Peter.

i love seeing wolf spider getting attention, even if he is kinda the generic evil version of the hero.... and straight up just spider-mans version of eon from ben 10

Imagine a version of Spider-Carnage that was in the same situation as MCU Spidey as his backstory.

I remember rolling my eyes when Wolf Spider said that this Spider-Man is the center of all the Spider-Man, as if the show saying their Spider-Man the best incarnation.

I want to defend Spidey against that “unless you’re Wolverine and you’re mad comment”, Spider-Man accidentally killed a suicidal woman he thought was Wolverine, and because he thought he was punching Wolverine, a man he knew as someone with a healing factor, he didn’t pull his punch.

I hope we see more Blood Spider & Ultimate Spider-Man’s Wolf Spider, these Spiderman deserve more than what they get, I dig Blood Spider cuz of his design and the same with Wolf Spider, but both are rarely recognized but kinda look cool and maybe one day we’ll get MCU versions of the characters

Wolf spider is kinda like the budget version of Ceo Pete from edge of time especially with the huge spider legs

Cowboy Spiderman was already a thing in the original Spiderverse event though. He is one of the recruits in Miles and Drake Bell's team.

I’m happy to see 11638 be mentioned cuz his story was fun and if my icon wasn’t enough proof I for some reason really like the costume

2 days straight on a 2 parter?? That patron button is looking really tempting now Xavier

I'm surprised you didn't mention the future peter from spider-man edge of time.

I think it’d be great to have Spot have his own line of Spider-Man villain variants that are taken as jokes or judged by their appearance that Spot has liberated and given purpose. Spiders-Man, Spirit Spider, Zombie Spider-Man, and Doppleganger, Kaine Parker, and Pestilence just to name a few.

if they bring back wolf spider he should get a redesign of some kind. i like the hooded cloak/poncho thing or whatever it's called he's got going on, but the grey skin, red creepypasta eyes and mask aren't my favourite thing. also maybe wolf spider was their spectacular spiderman adaptation? since yknow 4-arms and not too nice?

Spider-Carnage is far superior because we learn about him and how much of a huge tragic that he went through then when he learns that he was a clone he finally snap and is about to kill Ben Reilly, and thus creating Spider-Carnage. While Wolf-Spider just sucked because he's just evil and that's it.

I think as far as the Earth 616 Spider-Man is going I think we're about to see the very birth of Wolf Spider, and for very good reason, and I find it funny that the three evil Peter Parker Spider-Man are all stages of his life, Wolf Spider, teenager, Spider Carnage, adult, Alchemex CEO, elderly.

There's a Spider-Man called Spiders-Man who is a thousand spiders that ate Peter Parker and now think they are Peter. There's also Patton Parnel, a psychopath who used to burn ants before he got his powers. He murders and cannibalizes his own abusive uncle and school bully, before abducting and assaulting his MJ, while slowly transforming into a spider-monster. He's thankfully killed by Morlun, but not before biting MJ, which leads to a final panel where we learn he laid eggs in that bite, leading to a bunch of baby spiders emerging from neck in pure nightmare fuel. There's also a Spider-Man who is Norman Osborn.

Something I think could be kind of neat is that if The Inheritors were ever brought back again for anything, they get retconned to being evil alternate versions of Spider-Man like Wolf Spider there, and they just changed their appearances and made up their whole backstory with the Totems and shit to fuck with everyone. That'd be a neat twist and also kinda funny.

5:34 Edge of Time also had an evil Peter Parker without any redeeming qualities. But he was more of a generic evil business man villain, and not really a super aggressive one

Honestly, I feel like Wolf Spider was a waste of a very cool concept. His predecessors, Spdier-Carnage from the ‘90s series and CEO Peter from Edge of Time, were very well-done, but part of that was because we actually got their backstories. But with Wolf Spider, we got…nothing, really. We know why Spider-Carnage and CEO Peter are evil, but Wolf Spider seems to be evil just because and that’s a sucky explanation. If you’re going to make an evil alternate version of a good guy character, you need to give an explanation as to why that version ended up that way.

Such an underrated Spidey. Would be fun to see him cameo in Across the Spiderverse

5:34 So, even that Spider-Man had his redeeming qualities. He sends out Punisher to save his human wife in exchange for keeping a population of immune survivors alive, and makes good on that deal when Frank pulls through. The only reason it falls through is because Frank is too comfortable with his war on the cannibals to leave well enough alone, and kills him.

Patton Parnel from “I walked from a Spider” was a fun horror themed villian.

(About Superior Spider-Man) "he wouldn't make his cartoon debut until..." OH. Oh. Oh no...

Mendoza video back to back? Holy shit 💀

There IS a Cowboy Spider-man in comics, his actual name is Patrick O'Hara and he is from Earth-31913. He have horse called Widow and they have a mental connection, because Widow got bitten by same spider as Patrick O'Hara. His "Uncle Ben" is his brother Ben O'Hara.

finally, after 17 years without uploads, coming back strong witg some good stuff welcome back!

I love these episodes of return two the spider-verse, while the idea of a evil peter parker isn't particularly mind blowing. I love how you made two, videos on ultimate spider-man episodes you atcually like Xavier has character development.

I'm shocked that Marvel has no evil mirror universe. I want Incel Peter Parker who gaslights Mary Jane and a Thanos that just encourages people to recycle and use alternative fuels.

I still feel bad for that spider carnage in tas, he lost his aunt may and found out he might be the clone. That'd drive any peter nuts.

“Don’t Even Mention Chasm” lol thank you. Can’t stand what they did to Ben Reilly.

2:00 neat, more City of Heroes music! Or City of Villains, Spider City neighborhood to be precise

Wow Godzilla Mendoza really been spoiling us with the amount of uploads recently

Wooooooooo two spiderman videos in a row now thats awesome gotta say this we're eating good tonight

Finally Xavier uploads after all these years

Way to get straight into the video topic man, very nice

YES 2 UPLOADS I AM EXITED. also the concept of this video is very interesting and such a fun topic

The Ultimate cartoon is surprisingly influential to the new games

Didn't one video game with Spider-Man 2099 revel the head of Alchemax to be a corrupted Peter Parker? I would have guessed that.

It was also very similar to the spider wars having an evil version of Peter be the final villain. But Spider Carnage was much more effective imo

As funny as Wolf Spider being the X-23 of Spider-Man media would be, I doubt it

I really hope to see Spider-Carnage’s return someday He was a really great villain for a multiverse story

I find it funny that the Cowboy Spidey, the one Spider-Man who never had a "canon event", is a part of Spider-Man 2099's little Spider-Club in Across The Spider-Verse.

4:11 well...I mean...it's not COMPLETELY hout of left field, Renew Your Vows MJ comes to mind...

Great video!

finally a video that doesnt always shit on the on spiderman show i grew up with

I Think Wolf-Spiders design is a bit of a nod to Morlun the original villain of the comics given his red eyes and gray skin.

finally my cold has been satiated by not only one, but 2 new godzillamendoza videos

*We don't talk about Chasm.*

I like Wolf Spider's Hooded design and how he stands as the mysterious villain in the background, then the story became about him

Big fan please can you do more cosplay tutorials and who’s your favourite spidey actor

Great vid bro.😺

I wish we could’ve a Spider-Man who Laughs kind of character

Spectacularly diabolical

I think Ultimate spiderman would fit well into across the spiderverse

2 videos in a small span of time, you spoil us Xavier

"Now he just uses the power of friendship or whatever." Just wait till you see the series finale 🙄

I loved how young Ben frl look like the old animated Spider-Man series

5:27 I had an action figure on that Spider-man (Spider armor). When he showed op on screen I was floored.

Nothing beats the spider wars which is the original spider verse that aired. Every one just likes the spider verse now because of certain spiders.

4:20 they later did that for her in the comics by giving her a version of venom

5:35 I don't know if he counts, what with him having a different name and all, but there was Patton Parnell, A.K.A Spider-Monster.

Christopher Daniel Barnes is always great to hear as Spidey, I grew up with him but mainly on a DVD with the big wheel episode and some re-runs. but it was still my favorite spider-man show despite it extreme corniness in its writing

Story from when this was new. The ads for this arc spoiled Wolf Spider would be an evil Peter Parker. They showed his face. They obscured the rest of the context, but boy was that frustrating...

back to back gm videos?? no way ✅✅✅✅

I love Wolf spider he's so cool and he has so much potential.

i am eating up godzillamendoza's content like a feast

Honestly I'd love for Wolf Spider to appear again. He'd be fantastic.

I honestly think it be funny if the beyond the spider-verse villain would be ultimate spiderman peter parker from the cartoon. More insane and he had the power to create cutaways gags. wants to destroy spider-verse so he can be the only spiderman to be loved.

Imagine if Evil Spider Man was Bitten by a Different Animal and Going With The Wolf Naming He Would Become The Horrific Wolf-Man

Earth 51412 is still my favorite evil Peter even though it barely lasts. Great story and a cool alternate story, Patton Parnel

2 days in a row i dig

Bro i loved shatter dimensions that was my childhood game

I love that cowboy uncle ben moon knight wears glasses under his moon knight mask and its not noticeable when he has the mask on. I can't even wear masquerade masks over my glasses, much less a full head covering mask

I enjoyed old animated evil Spider-man And some arc of ultimate Spider-Man was good 👍🏻
