To relatively little fanfare, Amazon Prime Video just launched Spider-Noir<\/a>, the new Nicholas Cage series about \u201cThe Spider,\u201d an alternate universe Spider-Man with a private detective day job. The project always seemed rather ambitious, attempting to emulate decades-old noir films, and it would have been easy to have things go wrong.<\/p>\n Instead, things have gone very, very right. Spider-Noir is fantastic, thanks in no part to the unparalleled Nicholas Cage, and it has now set an audience score record for all of Marvel, not just the MCU (it is not an MCU show), on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>. At a 92%, at the time of this writing, that places it above every single other Marvel series in recent memory, including the biggest fan-favorites like X-Men \u201997, Agents of SHIELD and the original Daredevil.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s the full list of every Marvel series, where none measure up.<\/p>\n Spider-Noir \u2013 91% critic score, 92% audience scoreAgents of SHIELD \u2013 95% critic score, 91% audience scoreX-Men \u201997 \u2013 99% critic score, 91% audience scoreDaredevil (Netflix) \u2013 92% critic score, 90% audience scoreWandaVision \u2013 92% critic score, 88% audience scoreHawkeye \u2013 92% critic score, 88% audience scoreMoon Knight \u2013 86% critic score, 88% audience scoreLoki \u2013 87% critic score, 87% audience scoreDaredevil: Born Again \u2013 87% critic score, 83% audience scoreWonder Man \u2013 91% critic score, 87% audience scoreMs. Marvel \u2013 98% critic score, 80% audience scoreThe Falcon and the Winter Soldier \u2013 85% critic score, 80% audience scoreJessica Jones (Netflix) \u2013 83% critic score, 80% audience scoreThe Punisher (Netflix) \u2013 64% critic score, 79% audience scoreLuke Cage (Netflix) \u2013 88% critic score, 71% audience scoreThe Defenders (Netflix) \u2013 78% critic score, 70% audience scoreMODOK \u2013 87% critic score, 68% audience scoreMarvel Zombies \u2013 66% critic score, 68% audience scoreIron Fist (Netflix) \u2013 38% critic score, 66% audience scoreYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man \u2013 97% critic score, 62% audience scoreWhat If\u2026? \u2013 85% critic score, 62% audience scoreEcho \u2013 71% critic score, 57% audience scoreCloak and Dagger \u2013 67% critic score, 56% audience scoreSecret Invasion \u2013 53% critic score, 43% audience scoreInhumans \u2013 11% critic score, 42% audience scoreShe-Hulk \u2013 80% critic score, 32% audience score<\/p>\n Despite criticism of Marvel TV, its history is actually full of quite a lot of wins. More than half of these shows (13) have an 80% audience score or above. Eight have above a 90% from critics.<\/p>\n As for Spider-Noir, the series has been dropped as an eight-episode binge on Amazon Prime Video. Here\u2019s the official synopsis:<\/p>\n \u201cPrivate eye Ben Reilly is living easy and lazy until mobsters, monsters and a femme fatale drag him back to his former life as NY’s only superhero.\u201d<\/p>\n The show will give you two options to watch, color or black and white. I cannot recommend black and white enough, as it is absolutely gorgeous and captures the noir vibe excellently.
