"Spider-Noir," Prime Video’s new antidote to superhero fatigue arrived on May 27 and the spirited show is currently enjoying a wave of enthusiastic reviews from both critics and fans and is now registering an impressive 91% Rotten Tomatoes aggregate score.

It stars Nicholas Cage as Ben Reilly, AKA The Spider, a Depression-era multiverse version of Spider-Man in New York City which was introduced in Marvel’s "Spider-Man Noir" comic books and later seen in the 2018's "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse."
