EP01:
After Ruby’s death, Ben Reilly completely abandoned life as “The Spider” and started working low-level detective cases around the city, trying to bury that part of himself for good.

SPIDER-NOIR is a thrilling macabre that honors the Spider-Verse films while being its own thing. Nicolas Cage really digs deeper into Ben Reilly, but Li Jun Li and Jack Huston stand out. It feels a bit experimental, both narratively and visually, but it all works. #SpiderNoir pic.twitter.com/rUbYO3llTU

Another viewer wrote, "The finale gets INSANE. Megawatt’s converter nearly wipes out the entire district before Ben overloads the system himself to stop the destruction. He saves the city… but loses almost everything in the process."
Apparently Spider-Noir with Nic Cage dropped on Prime in both black & white and color versions. Yeah okay, I’m absolutely watching this tonight pic.twitter.com/f6Il1uHXjD
