Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is a fresh take on Peter Parker’s superhero origin story. Created by Jeff Trammell, the animated series is set in an alternate time of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
It showcases Peter being mentored by Norman Osborn during his early days as a superhero. Apart from regular characters like Peter, Aunt May, and Norman Osborn, several other Marvel characters have also made cameos in the show, from Daredevil to Doctor Strange.
The season finale, which aired on February 19, 2025, was no different as it also featured some fan-favorite characters in brief appearances. Here are all the Marvel cameos seen in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1 finale.
Marvel characters’ cameos in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1 finale
1) Daredevil
Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil, had already been seen in an earlier episode, where he sneaked into Oscorp tower and had a face-off against Spider-Man. He returns in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1 finale to watch the Osborn family closely, as he does not trust them.
He sends his protégé, Jeanne, also known as Finesse, to spy on Osborn, and W.E.B. Charlie Cox, who plays Matt Murdock in MCU’s Daredevil: Born Again, voices the character in the animated series as well.
2) Finesse
Jeanne’s secret identity as Finesse is revealed to the audience in the season finale. As Daredevil’s secret spy, she has been watching Norman Osborn and now starts keeping an eye on Harry Osborn by joining W.E.B.
Jeanne is extremely smart and learns new skills very quickly, which makes her perfect for this mission. In the Marvel comics, Finesse has powers like photographic reflexes, which enable her to copy her opponent’s attacking moves.
3) Doctor Strange
Doctor Strange also returns to the show in the final episode. He steps in to stop Norman Osborn’s dangerous experiment. Norman wants humans to be as powerful as gods, so he uses a special portal to try and make that happen.
When a dangerous symbiote monster escapes through the portal, Strange teams up with Spider-Man to fight it and destroy the portal. In the end, Strange tells Peter he is ready to be a real hero and fully accept his superpowers.
Robin Atkin Downes voices Strange in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man instead of Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays the role in live-action Marvel projects.
4) Uatu
Uatu, aka the Watcher, is seen watching over the Earth from the sky after Spider-Man and Doctor Stranger close the portal. Uatu is part of an ancient race that watches over different worlds but never interferes with them. The character has also appeared in other MCU shows like What If…?
5) Richard Parker
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1 ends with a surprising twist as Aunt May goes to the prison to meet Richard Parker. While everyone thought Peter’s father was dead, as he is in most other Marvel media, the show gives a different take on the story by depicting that he has been in prison all this time.

However, the finale ends without revealing why he has been jailed and whether Peter knows about his existence. Richard’s entry also raises questions about Aunt May, as she has been hiding a secret from Peter for a long time.
All episodes of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1 are streaming on Disney+.
