“It is very much like a cut from that Steve Ditko era of the comics,” said head of Marvel TV and Animation, Brad Winderbaum.
He continued, “It’s so essentially Spider-Man, and what Jeff Trammell, the creator of that show, did, which I think people are going to love, is he built this ensemble of characters around Peter that you fall in love with.”
It’s not yet known how Doctor Strange will fit into this world and whether he will be a recurring character, but it’s great to see the sorcerer back in a Marvel show.
