1* In this show, Peter tries to keep that he's on Counter-Earth a secret from John Jameson, saying that he may figure out he's Spider-Man... I kinda fail to see how this is a huge issue. John would probably be willing to keep it a secret so Peter could better aid the resistance. Also, Peter could have just easily done what he did on Earth in the first episode and said he tagged along to help tell the story of what happened to John and Spider-Man on Counter-Earth.
2* Peter doesn't find it odd that there are villains that look like the ones back on his home planet?
3** Even though there are several changes that keep it from being fully in continuity with ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries'', Spidey's been around by this point long enough that he doesn't find stuff like that weird.
4* Is this cartoon supposed to be in continuity with Spider-man the animated series?
5** Kinda-sorta. It's got broad strokes to connect it and how Eddie Brock got the symbiote is nearly identical to TAS, but there are several continuity problems that come up if you try to connect the two shows. To further confuse things, while they are listed as taking place in separate universes in the official databooks, Dan Slott and Nick Lowe consider Unlimited to be a sequel to TAS, and featured the former setting in Spider-Verse.

7* Did Peter not consider the legal ramifications for himself regarding the ''Solaris II'' theft? Putting aside the fact that Spider-Man was already considered a menace, he publicly dragged his civilian identity along for the ride during the heist. Pre-9-11 or not, stealing government property is sure to get Peter himself and quite possibly MJ on the feds' shit list.
8** Everyone blames him for Jameson being gone in the first place, so its not like his reputation could get any worse. He's also probably hoping that bringing Jameson back safe and sound will make up for 'borrowing' the ship. As for Peter, he made sure to make it sound like Peter went of his own volition, so no problems there.
9*** My point was that makes Peter's civilian identity an "accessory" ''at best'', especially if Peter was going under his own free will.
