Characters & Performances – Peter Parker is the Spider-Man that has been exposed to the world, he has lost his mentor figure to turn to for advice on dealing with the pressure of people seeing him as a criminal now, turning to Doctor Strange to help him, while his innocent side will want to do the right thing for people, he will need to learn the consequences of his actions. Tom Holland does continue to bring his nervous socially awkward side to Peter Parker, while having his own style in the combat. MJ is the girlfriend of Peter, she along with him are preparing for college, she is feeling the pressure of new fame, but playing in cool, with how she is handling it all. She does want to see Peter continue to do the right thing when it comes to his actions. Zendaya is great at bringing her own twist on MJ to the franchise, one that feels modern away from the comic book style we saw before. When it comes to the other characters we meet, we get to see fresh enemies for Peter to battle, ones that will give him an inner conflict in dealing with threats that will be coming his way, each will offer up a different battle for him to fight.

We get to see plenty of enemies who want to hunt him down, with him needing to learn about the responsibility his powers bring him. This is a story that could be discussed for years, and is one of the most satisfying stories in a long time.
