Warning! This article contains spoilers for Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 2 already confirmed to be in development, audiences will not have to wait much longer for the next installment of the MCU's newest iteration of the iconic Web-Slinger. Nonetheless, a post-credits scene was anticipated to more overtly tease the story’s future.

However, the many Marvel Marvel TV shows too. Following Phase 5's Secret Invasion, Loki season 2, What If...? seasons 2 and 3, and Agatha All Along, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man continues a trend that seems to be common for Marvel TV shows of late.

Why Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Didn't Need A Post-Credits Scene

The Main Story Was Wrapped Up Neatly In 10 Episodes

The trend in question is that Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man does not have a post-credit scene, nor do any of the aforementioned Phase 5 TV shows. Naturally, this begs the question of why the show continued this and why the creators felt the show did not need to have a post-credit scene. Put simply, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man's 10-episode story stood on its own and concluded neatly. While teases were given about the future of the show, these were included in the episode's runtime as is usually the case with traditional superhero TV shows.

Marvel has long been in the business of creating animated shows based on iconic characters from long before 2008, which tended not to include post-credit stingers...

Moreover, post-credit scenes have never been all too common in Marvel's TV productions, especially before the MCU began. Marvel has long been in the business of creating animated shows based on iconic characters from long before 2008, which tended not to include post-credit stingers. Although some TV productions of the MCU have included the now-expected post-credit scenes, they are still much more common in Marvel Studios' films. For this reason - and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man's tight, concise story - the show continued the trend of foregoing teases of future projects after the credits.

How Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Still Sets Up A Season 2

The Future Still Looks Bright For The MCU's Newest Spider-Man

Despite not having a post-credit scene, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man aptly sets up more adventures for season 2 and beyond. As already alluded to, Charlie Cox's Daredevil made another appearance in the show, revealing that he was working with Peter's fellow Oscorp intern Jeanne, also known as Finesse, to further spy on Norman Osborn. Speaking of Norman, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 2 could adapt his descent into villainy as the Green Goblin, stemming from his feud with Otto Octavius and his continued efforts at innovating with morally questionable inventions to the discovery of a symbiote trace in Oscorp tower.

Perhaps the biggest tease of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man season 1's ending, though, came when Aunt May was shown visiting Richard Parker, Peter's dad, in prison. This promises to cause a lot of internal issues for Peter, and, interestingly, is the scene most likely to have been utilized as a post-credit stinger if the show was a live-action movie. Overall, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man opted for a more traditional TV route, however, by wrapping up its central season 1 story and teasing more to come all within the confines of its episode's runtimes, continuing a Phase 5 MCU trend.
