List of Ultimate Spider-Man and the New Avengers episodes

01) Swinging for a Friend, Part 1: A Falcon Among Us
It all starts with Mary Jane Watson learning that Spider-Man is her childhood friend Peter Parker after seeing him visiting Uncle Ben's grave in a graveyard next to Queens. The next day, Spider-Man resumes to fight crime alongside a magically enhanced peregrine falcon named Redwing, who gently gets along with him, while Mary Jane befriends a new student in Midtown High named Wanda Maximoff, who is looking for a new home in New York after losing her former one in Sokovia, and offers her a place in her own home, unaware of Wanda's own metahuman nature and plot against J. Jonah Jameson. At the same time, Spider-Man’s fellow trainees and the Avengers Captain America and Iron Man prepare to face a new threat hidden within New York City, one of which Mary Jane suspects that Jameson is responsible for.


 * Note: In a brief moment, while in Wanda's mind controlling spell, Mary Jane has disturbing visions of the past and a possible future of what would occur if Jameson remained as reporter, which involves heroes led by Captain America and Iron Man fighting each other until Cap's allies, including Spider-Man, perish one by one. This Nightmarish hallucination is a short, but very dramatic inspiration on the Civil War storyline.

Jonah Jameson in the Central Park, Peter begins to have a heart to heart with Mary Jane over his duties as Spider-Man and her safety to help her overcome the terrifying visions she had.

04) The Phoenix's Quest
Impressed by Mary Jane's heroic duties and achievements as the Phoenix Princess, Spider-Man's teammates decide that she might fit pretty well as one of the New Avengers and want her to join their team.

Now the New Avengers, allied with the Phoenix Warriors (consisting of Red She-Hulk, Sun Hawk, Wanda Maximoff (now known as Scarlet Witch), Redwing and Summer Knight) and Harry Osborn (who now fights crime as American Son), work to protect the girl and extinguish the Dark Power Gem which infected her.

(who became one of the victims of the Sokovian Spider-Slayer attack) who programmed his free will to be based on Spider-Man's moral code and personality. While Peter teaches his clone the natural ways of being a hero and keeps him safe from HYDRA agents led by Kraven the Hunter attempting to take him in, Phoenix Princess works with Red She-Hulk to redeem She-Vulture, a female clone of Adrian Tommes created in his days as Vulture by Zola, and keep her safe from Viper Empress' clutches. The team also works to stop HYDRA from brainwashing teenagers who were mutated with Oscorp Formulas which turned them into Human/Animal hybrids.


 * Aftermath: Scarlet Spider joins the New Avengers and adopts the identity of Ben Reilly and She-Vulture is reformed as a eagle-themed metahuman and redubbed Sun-Eagle and adopts the civilian identity of Audrey Tommes (becoming Adrian's adopted sister and joining the Phoenix Warriors)

Now Spider-Man, Phoenix Princess, American Son and Iron Spider work alongside Iron Man, Rescue, War Machine and Gwen (armed with a Phoenix-based Stark armor styling herself as Iron Phoenix) to repel their invasion and crossfire. They later discover that Iron Man's archenemy, the Mandarin, who is working in a secret Arc Reactor Project of his own and trying to put A.I.M. and HYDRA against each other to destroy Stark Industries, is behind the issuing chaos and must stop him as well.

08) The Kid Arachnid is Alright

He finds mentorship from Peter, who trains him to be Kid Arachnid as well as they take on Silver Sable and her Wild Pack, who were hired by Norman Osborn to exterminate all metahumans with powers originated from Oscorp, including Spider-Man and Morales, and Hydro-Man, who has escaped prison and is seeking to flood the home streets of the criminals who cheated on him. The  New Avengers end up getting more help from J. Jonah Jameson’s son John, who had fully managed to control his Man-Wolf persona with help from the Phoenix Princess and is now serving S.H.I.E.L.D. to redeem himself from his father’s crimes and overcome the loss of his wife (who was also another victim of the Sokovian Spider-Slayer rampage).

Now, Spider-Man and his team must work alongside Doctor Strange to defeat him.


 * Notes
 * The title of the episode is a reference of the Disney video game Castle of Illusions featuring Mickey Mouse.
 * During their adventure, the New Avengers cross through several similar to the ones Spider-Man saw in the Season 1 episode "Flight of the Iron Spider".
