Peter Parker might be the Spider-Man who’s cleaning up at the box office, but Miles Morales gets more play on streaming. According to Nielsen, the two animated “Spider-Verse” movies have been viewed on TV and streaming for more minutes in the US than any other iteration of the film franchise. However, all 10 “Spider-Man” movies combined can’t hold a candle to the “Spidey and His Amazing Friends” children’s cartoon series, which has been watched for almost double the amount of minutes (74 billion vs. 38 billion).
