Hoppus and Disney Jr revealed the theme song for the upcoming Marvel's Iron Man and His Awesome Friends, premiering August 11 on Disney Jr and streaming the next day on Disney+.

Titled "Totally Awesome," the co-lead vocalist, co-founder and bassist for the hit '90s punk rock band sings, "It's totally awesome, when I'm with my best friends/ It's better than chocolate, it's better than weekends."

The trailer for the sister show follows the format of the massively successful Spidey series, revealing kid Tony Stark (Iron Man), joined by friend Riri Williams (Iron Heart) and Amadeus Cho (Iron Hulk), on his adventures to protect the city—along with cameos from Captain America and Falcon—from villains such as Ultron, Swarm and Absrobing Man.

Mason Blomberg, KapriLadd and Aidyn Ahn will voice the characters behind the supersuits.

As for the Grammy winner's contribution to the song, the reaction from fans was overwhelmingly positive, with one writing, "Yaaaaay 🔥🔥🔥🔥" and another adding, "Congrats! this is awesome!"

"I love kids, kids love music, so I love kids music, I mean, it’s basic math,” another commented, as someone else expressed their shock upon hearing the vocals, "Oh what a neat looking show— IS THAT MARK HOPPUS?!?!?"

Someone else hoped that this means new Blink music is on the horizon, "Mark’s vocals sound really, really good here. Excited for new blink stuff when the time comes," while another quipped, "That's.... pretty f***in good, too bad it didn't make it on a blink album."

Over on a Reddit thread, someone exclaimed, "A successor to Spidey and his Amazing Friends, which has an awesome soundtrack by Patrick Stump," while another filed it under, "Banger Kids Show Theme That Parents Don’t Hate."

And as a parent of a Spidey-loving four-year-old who insists we listen to the soundtrack in the car—don't snooze on "Do the Spidey"—I couldn't agree more. Sure, the lyrics may be for kids, but if you tune them out, it sounds like the soundtrack of your college days!
