#316: “Brand New Day”

About this episode

The episode discusses Peter Parker's struggles and a mystery involving missing Avengers in the context of the 'Brand New Day' storyline.

No, not the movie, and no, not the comic either! It’s actually an introspective follow-up to the Superior Spider-Man arc, with Peter Parker back in his own body but finding his life in shambles. Oh, and he investigates a mystery of missing Avengers and makes a horribly ugly new suit. We talk about the legacy of “Brand New Day” as a title, a cute version of Molten Man, and yet another rant about the show’s use of Miles, Gwen, and Anya. We’re watching Spider-Man (2017): Season 2, Episode 20: “Brand New Day”. ⁠⁠Take the Glitterjaw Listener Survey ⁠⁠⁠⁠ and enter to win a $50 gift card!
