"The premiere of 'Marvel's Spidey and his Amazing Friends' has been a seminal moment in our journey to bring Marvel's stories to preschool audiences," said Dan Buckley, president of Marvel Entertainment. "Spider-Man has always been a character to break new ground for Marvel in every medium, so we're thrilled Peter, Gwen and Miles are resonating with so many fans.
