Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man - Hitting the Big Time
"Hitting the Big Time" is really just an excuse to put Peter Parker (Hudson Thames) in a bunch of goofy costumes designed by Norman Osborne (Colman Domingo). While none, but the last (which still looks a bit too Anti-Venom to me), are really on brand or functionally make any sense (other than potentially sell toys), there's certainly fun to be had with Spidey trying his luck in the various outfits. Eventually the pair settle on a new look for the hero.
The episode is also notable for Lonnie Lincoln (Eugene Byrd) being pulled further into the gang life, short appearances by Amadeus Cho (Aleks Le) and the other interns, Norman recapping Avengers' events from Captain America: Civil War, early appearances from a couple of characters who eventually will become classic Spidey villains, and a second Osborne discovering Spider-Man's secret identity when Peter accidentally exposes himself to Harry (Zeno Robinson). As with the previous episodes, the show remains a bit hit-and-miss, but at least we've gotten Spidey out of the handmade costume.
