Storyline

- TriviaOnce in a secure position, story editor John Semper made his first demand of the combined FOX-Marvel forces by making them buy him a complete collection of Spider-Man comics. FOX and Marvel had the idea that armed with six trade paperbacks, Semper was going to create a 65-episode series. However, he told them no, invest the money in the books and they could use them for reference. Semper got his comics and as '93 moved into '94 the story editor began researching more than 30 years of Spider-lore - building the foundation of this series.
- Quotes
Tombstone: Come down here and fight like a man!
Spider-Man: I don't suppose I could convince you to come up here and fight like a spider.
- Crazy creditsThe episodes shown in syndication of the Jetix line-up feature a shortened opening credit sequence that shows clips from all 5 seasons. However, Season Two episodes have their original intro.
- Alternate versionsAn alternate, shorter opening sequence compiling footage from all of the show's seasons is shown during the Jetix airings on the shows (though Season 2 episodes have the original Season 2 intro.)

Still works 20 years later
I'm a woman in my 30s and watched this show as a child. This was my first exposure to comic book characters; Spiderman will always be my favorite character. I found this show on Disney+ and it is just has wonderful as when I originally experienced it. The story-lines are captivating, Peter Parker is quick-witted, and the animation is detailed for a 90s cartoon. Speaking of story-lines, I'm noticing that this show must have been big inspiration for live-action movies to follow in the next 10-20 years. Obviously, most Spiderman stories stem from canonical comic books, but a lot of scenes are visually similar to Raimi's Spiderman and even current Marvel Studios Spiderman movies. For example: scenes from the Mysterio episode, Doc-Oc episode, Black Spiderman episode, and the episode showing Spiderman's origin story. This is further evidence that ideas just get recycled. And wow, J. K. Simmons really was a great choice for J. Jonah Jameson; he has very similar mannerisms to Parker's animated boss.
