‘Horizon High’ A good start for this Spider-Man cartoon
I really liked the Spider-Man cartoon from the 90’s. It was full of great characters, dangerous villains and brought many of the comic book stories to life. I watched it all the time as a kid, and it told me a lot about this amazing hero. Now Disney XD is bringing Spider-Man back to TV. I was able to watch the pilot ‘Horizon High’ early and here is what I thought of it.

‘Horizon High’ was a good Marvel Spider-Man pilot. It is sort of an origin story, but not the one fans are used to seeing. It shows how Peter Parker is getting used to being a hero, and clearly he has some things to learn. There are some well known villains here who have new looks and present plenty of challenges for Spider-Man. This show also brings a few new characters into the mix, and they help set this show apart from the rest. If you are a fan of this web slinger, then this is a show you will want to check out.
