For the final week of our ani-MAY-tion month, we spring into the action with Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. We discuss the landmark animation, which combines CGI and hand-drawn animation along with color offset, giving the film a totally unique comic book look. We also talk about the enormous comic contributions of Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, and Jack Kirby, the excitement of meeting a Spider-Man (or several) with a completely new backstory, the genre mashup, the always funky and fabulous Nicolas Cage, and the odd similarities between Kingpin, Daddy Warbucks, and Mr. Freeze. Your spidey senses must be tingling at this point, so shoot your web and swing over to a fantastic talk about your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!
