Found a YouTube video declaring CHAPTER ONE to be this.

Didn’t bother to watch. CO was never presented or promoted as a “reboot”. So calling it a failure is starting at a false premise.

I saw that video and went "Huh?"

Has Spider-Man ever been re-booted, by the way? Just a thought that crossed my mind, as I'm not aware of any (and I'm not talking about alternate universes).

I thought CO was phenomenal. You really brought the quirky look to Spider-
Man that hadn’t been seen in a long time. That splash (you know the one) is
probably my favorite image ever of the character.

Such a failure, they offered you Chapter Two?

My old-man brain initially read this thread title as "McFarlane Spider-Man Relaunch". Probably need to start wearing my readers more often.
