“The Unicorn Unleashed” gets a bit obscure in tapping and old Iron Man villain and repackaging it as a member of the crew we saw Spider-Man (Hudson Thames) take down in the previous episode who acquires the helmet from Doc Ock‘s () black market. Playing on the cliffhanger of Harry (Zeno Robinson) learning Peter’s secret identity, he becomes Spider-Man’s tech support which builds a friendship Peter than struggles to bring over into his real life to the consternation of Nico (Grace Song).

Zatanna‘s new magic tour gets off to a bad start when members of her crew are pulled into various realities within the Astral Plane during rehearsals in the opening issue of the new series.

“Hitting the Big Time” is really just an excuse to put Peter Parker (Hudson Thames) in a bunch of goofy costumes designed by Norman Osborne (Colman Domingo). While none, but the last (which still looks a bit too Anti-Venom to me), are really on brand or functionally make any sense (other than potentially sell toys), there’s certainly fun to be had with Spidey trying his luck in the various outfits.

Mike White‘s HBO anthology returns for a Third Season relocated events in the exclusive White Lotus resort chain’s Thailand location. After opening the episode with a tease of things to come at the end of one week, “Same Spirits, New Forms” focuses on the arrival of the spoiled guests to the resort.
