Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man has finally debuted on Disney Plus, offering Marvel fans a fresh look at their favorite wallcrawler. However, many are wondering about the brand-new series’ timeline placement.

The animated series introduces a branched timeline, reimagining Peter Parker’s origin while weaving in key MCU references.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is the latest Marvel series to arrive on Disney+, but is the animated show set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

But the most similar origin story to the one shown in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is actually that of Miles Morales in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, where he’s bitten by a spider from a different dimension.

Head writer Jeff Trammell and supervising director Mel Zwyer pay homage to the early comics with a "moving comic" style in CG while introducing a surprising supporting cast.
