Ultimate Spider-Man (Lizard Transformations)

The fifth episodes from the fourth season of Ultimate Spider-Man is called "Lizards" and definitely lives up to its title! The premise: Doc Connors turns into the lizard again, but this time his bite is infectious, so there are five lizard transformations shown in this episode! Bless the storyboard artists for taking interest in each TF--they even paid attention to the most difficult part to show transforming (the one most animators skip): the head. And if all that wasn't enough, we get a few reversions too:



As you can see, the transformees include Connors (the first and longest TF), Shield agent Leo Fitz (a well-drawn head and face focused TF) and three of Spider-Man's "Web Warriors" sidekicks: Kid Arachnid aka Miles Morales (some nice clothes-bursting), Scarlet Spider aka Caine (the quickest TF), and Iron Spider aka Amadeus Cho (another good head/face transformation). Contrary to what Miles says at the end, "Web Warriors plus reptile equals" good mojo!
