Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has released the box art for The Spectacular Spider-Man: The Complete First Season.

The second disc includes "Persona," "Group Therapy," "Intervention" and "Nature vs. Nurture," along with bonus features.

In other Spider-Man news:

* At a recent convention appearance, supervising producer Greg Weisman said that Flash Thompson gets more depth in Season 2, and there are arcs for him, Mary Jane, Gwen and Jonah. "I'm not even vaguely close to running out of material," he said.

* Stan Lee's cameo in the series will be a character that looks like him. The character's name is also Stan.

* Brian George is providing the voice of Miles Warren.

* Look for more on the show on Monday here in The Continuum.
