Spider-Man is one of the American television series starring the Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man. The series consists of 65 episodes, which originally aired between November 19, 1994 and January 31, 1998; making this the most extensive series of Spider-Man. The series was written by John Semper Jr and produced by Marvel Films Animation. This animated series is considered the most successful spider-man. In the episodes dubbed Latin American, he chose to keep the name "Spider-Man" and not "Spider-Man"; while in Spain it was called "Espiderman", pronounced literally due to a cultural concept, since it had been known as that since 1969.
Due to the "crossover" with the X-men in Season 2, with the same lineup of X-Men The Animated Series, it was confirmed that they share the same universe. He also shares the same universe with the second season of Iron Man.
The series is based on the life of Peter Parker, after he has transformed into Spider-Man. The series also develops the love affair with Mary Jane Watson, as well as Spider-Man's relationship with the press and the Kingpin Mafia.
Season 1 is based mainly on the presentation of villains, such as: the Lizard in chapter 1 of the first season, The Night of the Lizard, in chapter 4 The Travess of Mysterio, in chapter 5 The Armed and Dangerous Doctor Octopus, Doctor Octopus. A noteworthy fact is the appearance of the alien symbiote in chapters 7, 8 and 9 The Alien Costume that would give Peter Parker a black suit, which in chapter 8 he would reject as he became more aggressive (this is because the symbiote feeds on the adrenaline), and then, in chapter 9 he would join Eddie Brock forming Venom , being one of the most dangerous enemies Spider-Man managed to defeat.
In Season 2, the theme is the Neogen nightmare in which Spider-Man continued his mutation into a Spider Monster (Man-Spider); in the 1st and 2th chapter The Six Villains appear the Sinister 6, such as Six Villains, (a formation composed of Rino, Shocker, Doc. Octopus, Mystery, the Scorpion, and the Chameleon), in chapter 4 The plan of the mutants gives the appearance of the X-Men with the formation taken from X-Men: The Animated Series. Chapter 7 The Punisher arrives with more Marvel characters, such as The Punisher or Blade, in chapter 13 Vulture's squawking appears, which, in chapter 14 The Final Nightmare, with the help of Dr. Connors, would unintentionally cure Spider-Man of his illness.
In Season 3, there are more complex characters and more difficult enemies like the Green Goblin, in chapter 4 The Appearance of the Green Goblin putting Spider-Man into more complicated situations. In addition, more guest heroes appear: chapter 1 The Strange Doctor Strange, chapter 10 The Return of Venom Iron Man, and Chapter 6 Accused Daredevil, and it is worth noting the appearances of Madame Web, who prepares Spider-Man for the "greatest confrontation of his life", in the second chapter Ask a Wish, the second in Chapter 8 The Total Killer , the third in chapter 9 Headstone, the fifth in chapter 10, The Return of Venom, the sixth in chapter 11 The War of the Goblins and the last appearance of this season in chapter 12 Crucial Moment. The season concludes with chapter 13, Change of View with the disappearance of Mary Jane and Norman Osborn.
Season 4 stands out: the presentation of the Black Cat in chapter 3 The Black Cat and his short romance with Spider-Man, the transformation of Harry Osborn into the Green Goblin in chapter 8 The Return of the Green Goblin, throughout the season we are shown a Spider-Man moderately bitter by the loss of Mary Jane and in the process of being an antiheroe , until Mary Jane's unexpected reappearance occurs in chapter 8 The persecution of Mary Jane Watson although it would later be discovered that she is a clone.
In Season 5, the saga adapts great stories from Marvel comics. First, this season begins with the wedding between Peter and Mary Jane (clone) in the chapter The Wedding. In the next chapter, he would move on to the Saga of the Six Forgotten Warriors, which lasts for 5 episodes, from chapter 2 to chapter 6, in which Peter Parker has to travel to Moscow to discover his parents' past. This saga brings out the history of America in World War II and Red Skull's plans to defeat the United States and conquer the world. In addition, the Six Villains appear again, but with Vulture among their ranks in Chapter 3 Unclaimed Legacy, to capture Red Skull's secret weapon. They also appear as guests in chapter 4 The Secret of the Six Captain America with the 6 Forgotten Warriors (Whizzer, Ms America, The Destroyer, The Black Wonder and Thunderer) and Red Skull, as well as the creation of Electro in the next chapter, it is also worth noting Silver Sable's appearances as a mercenary.
During Peter and Mary Jane's honeymoon, with the reappearance of Hydro-Man (clone) in episode 7 of Season 5, The Return of Hidroman, it would be revealed at the end of the episode that Mary Jane is truly a clone. From the original created by Miles Warren from cells of the original Hydro-Man, in the next chapter, the instability of the clones (that of Hydro-Man and that of Mary Jane) would lead to their tragic death.
A reduced version of Secret Wars will come from chapter 5 of the 5th season. It differs from the comics in that Beyonder takes on different villains. These are Red Skull and Alistair Smythe, keeping Doctor Octopus, Doctor Doom, and the Lizard. For his part, in chapter 9 The Arrival Spider-Man chooses the Fantastic Four as heroes (in the comic version there are only three, the Invisible Woman stays because she is pregnant with her second child) Iron Man (in the comics , James Rhodes goes in Tony's place), Storm (in the comic version the X-Men go, except Kitty Pryde) and Captain America. In Chapter 10 of Season 5 The Red Skull Gauntlet would be joined by The Lizard (with Connors' brain) and the Black Cat (Replacing, in a way, Hulk and She Hulk respectively) and an important fact is Doctor Doom's attempt to beat Beyonder and gain omnipotence in Chapter 11 of Season 5 Secret Wars - Doom. Also, in the series the leader of the group is Spider-Man and not Captain America.
During two chapters, 12 and 13 of the 5th season, the Spider War saga would appear, in which Madame Web returns with different versions of Spider-Man. These are:
A Spider-Man who is a millionaire and has armor like Iron Man (who has Gwen Stacy as a girlfriend in his own dimension)
Another who has arms similar to that of Doc Octopus
A 6-armed Spider-Man with the spider mutation that he suffered in the middle of evolving, although at the end of chapter 12 As I detest the clones he ends up and becomes Man-Spider.
The Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly), clone of Spider-Man (or the original) in his universe (it should be noted that the 2nd Clone Saga is in development).
One who does not have superpowers, but is an actor who makes the Spider-Man series in reality.
In chapter 12 As I detest the clones go to the reality of the Spider-Man clone (Ben Reilly), in which there is a Spider-Man allied with the Carnage symbiote who has the intention of destroying the Multiverse or even the Omniverse.
In Chapter 13 of Season 5 See You Later he travels to reality where he is a millionaire, but the Spider-Carnage continues to try to destroy the world and ally himself with Kingpin, the lawyer for Spider-Man, after Spider-Man sees his version millionaire has not made mistakes thinks that only someone could help him and that is the uncle Ben Parker of that world that is alive and after helping the Spider-Man of the universe of the clone to regain the sense of responsibility (this, following in chapter 13 , sacrifices himself to destroy the evil symbiote that controls him.) After this, always within the same chapter, Spider-Man travels to the reality of the actor where he meets Stan Lee (creator of Spider-Man) with whom he establishes a small dialogue, thanking him for having created it. Finish the series by traveling in space-time with Madame Web to meet the real Mary Jane. The series was sadly canceled and left unfinished.
Additionally this Spider-Man makes a cameo in the X-Men series in the V and last episode of The Phoenix Saga of the third season titled "Son of light" In which he is seen saving civilians.
Due to its cancellation and open ending, a sketch of the first minutes of what could be episode 661 was released in which Spider-Man is adrift in a desert dimension.
