Fans who attended the event also got a first look at the second season, which appears to hint at a comeback of more classic Spider-Man villains such as Rhino, Doctor Ocotopus, and Lizard.

The introduction of Gwen Stacy and Eddie Brock, who works for the Daily Bugle, was also teased, as Doctor Ocotopus attacks a gala and kidnaps Harry Osborn after a brief fight with Spider-Man, who is seemingly exposed to Venom’s symbiote.

It was also confirmed that Charlie Cox’s Daredevil will be making a comeback.

The best animated Spider-Man show of all time?

Fans have been discussing the announcement on Reddit, with one going as far to say it 'could end up being the best animated Spider-Man show of all time'.

"Really excited for this. S1 was a welcome surprise for me, game to see what they cook up here," another said.

While a third fan added: "Season 1 was such a delightful surprise, and I think Season 2 will continue on that good line!"

Your Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man explores the origins of Peter Parker, voiced by Hudson Thames, and his early days using his Spider-Man persona. The show is set in an alternate multiverse timeline, and is heavily inspired by the original 1960s comic.

Season one ended on a few cliffhangers, meaning a second season can't come fast enough.

Doctor Strange, voiced by British actor Robert Atkin Downes, helped Spider-Man fight the Venom alien symbiote after it arrived from another dimension, while Norman Osborn secretly kept a piece of the symbiote to experiment on.

Only five months to go, Spidey fans!
