Review of Votre fidèle serviteur Spider-Man

I think where this series goes wrong is it is beholden to fit inside of the Marvel Universe brackets while making slight variations to set it in another "universe". As a storytelling device, this whole "alternate universe" plot essentially gives you a blank check to do whatever you want plot wise - especially with animation. A good example of this are the animated Spiderverse movies. Yet, this series essentially just makes a few "tweaks" to the Tom Holland universe storyline and repackages it as a new story. They change the race of a few characters, replace a few characters, but the overall imprint of the MCU still exists. It's like the show exists in limbo between the MCU Spider-Man story and an original, creative story. The animation is okay and not very original, the characters are one-dimensional and boring, and there isn't really too much to keep the audience engaged. It seems like this should have been fleshed out a bit more before being released.
