Both Miles Morales and Spider-Woman (aka Spider-Gwen) have appeared on “Ultimate Spider-Man,” which premiered in 2012, with the wall-crawler (voiced by Drake Bell) one year into his career. S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury (Chi McBride) offered him a chance to train alongside four other teenagers — Nova, White Tiger, Iron Fist and Power Man — to become a real superhero. With the third season the series was retitled “Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors,” with Spider-Man assigned by Fury to form the New Warriors. The current fourth and final season, “Ultimate Spider-Man Vs. the Sinister 6,” opened with Doctor Octopus forming a new version of the Sinister Six, but also brought in Carnage and elements similar to “The Clone Saga.”disney-xd-spider-man3 3.jpg
