The Spider-Man that was NOT for Kids

Ойын-сауық

The early 2000s were a VERY interesting time for Spider-Man. After the relative failure of the unusual Spider-Man Unlimited, Marvel began to take a much more straightforward approach developing their next animated series. They tasked Brian Michael Bendis to directly adapt his very successful Ultimate Spider-Man comic run. However, after the unprecedented success of Sam Raimi’s live action Spider-Man film in 2002, they decided to rework the series to become a direct follow up to that continuity. What resulted was Spider-Man: The New Animated series, a very ambitious and very different kind of Spidey series, and while I believe that in a lot of ways, it fails in its conceit to be a follow up to Raimi’s film, when taken on its own merits, there is a TON to love about the series. So join me as I swing through MTVs short lived and wildly different Spider-Man series.

    Peter’s characterization is damn near PERFECT in this show. He has the right balance of intellectualism and charisma, as well as a healthy amount of assertiveness that is completely lost in modern Spidey media. NPH absolutely nailed it in my eyes, and he’s who I often “hear” when I read the Lee/Ditko and VERY early Romita years

    Speaking about the voices, for the Latin American Spanish dub the dub actors for Peter, MJ and Harry were the sames ones who dubbed them in the Raimi films. Actually, Tobey's dub actor also voiced Peter in Spectacular, though he didn't reprise his role as Tobey in No Way Home because, well, a lot of things happened

    And let's not forget the Stan Lee cameo in the final two episodes, where Stan Lee plays not some goofy version of himself, but as a grim old stranger who PUSHES Peter Parker towards vengeance with serious conviction. What also makes this cameo unique is that the Old Man is a lackey or some poor schmuck the Gaines Twins roped into their vengeful scheme of having Spider-Man murder Kraven.

    Correction on the first episode: Turbo Jet was actually based off a VERY VERY VERY obscure spiderman villain, Slyde. He only appeared in one comic during Romita's era. He was a scorned inventor who invented a non-stick frying pan spray that worked 100% effectively. His invention was passed off as dumb by the company he worked for so he became a supervillain instead as revenge. He actually has a REALLY unique power. He coated his suit in his non-stick spray, and absolutely nothing could stick to him or grab him, including Spidermans webs. He was also so slippery that he was able to "slide" on the ground at super speeds, faster than spiderman even. Funny enough, Spider-Man was unable to defeat him and he ended up escaping after ruining his former company's reputation. He was never seen or mentioned again. Turbo Jett and him share very similar qualities. Both African American, both wear a white costume, both travel at huge speeds, both can't be webbed up (jets vibrations melt the webs, slyde's suit can't adhere to anything).

    Loved Mary Jane's design in this series. It definitely feels like it's one made in the early 2000s with details like the Choker, the full bare midriff via Crop Tops and low rise pants, as well as some mild eyeliner; though without feeling dated at all and she looks really great all around. A shorter hairstyle also makes her stand out quite a bit compared to her other well known designs. And oftentimes, I've noticed how the rendering / cel shaded style of the show would make her bellybutton disappear and then reappear in a few shots depending on the camera angle and lightning. Mild animation goof right there.

    The problem I see is that Spectacular also ended on a cliffhanger and there's probably a lot more fan momentum to see a 3rd season of that, before a 2nd season of this. Also some still consider Spiderman TAS's ending to be somewhat of a cliffhanger and with X-Men TAS being revived, I'd wager there's also more momentum and overall chance for that being given some form of revival than this as well. Overall I think that not enough people that know about this show in comparison to TAS, Spectacular and even Ultimate, I think it's why videos like this are important to at the very least make people remember this existed but hopefully also get new people to check it out so they can see how cool it was and we'll see if that hopefully gets this series a higher profile.

The show itself gives me a sort of melancholy feeling, especially knowing how it ended on a cliffhanger with Peter quitting being Spider-Man. Since there wasn’t anymore seasons that is the ending as of right now, Peter just giving up and living a normal life, which no one could blame him for with how the city hated him. Such a unique Spidey show, a huge shame that so many incredible Spider-Man shows never got finished.

    This is the best Spider-Man animated series that had a dark generational, gap because the story telling and voice acting along with peer support I really wanted this show to be a cult classic despite everyone no giving it a chance. I love watching this series because a spider-man animated series like this could not be made today. I really also wanted a follow up, on the ending series finale and just a return to this universe?

    I remember first coming actoss this in my late teens/early adulthood. The fact that Peter was also atthis pount in his life really resonated with me. I loced the darker and sexier themes. Imo SpiderMAN does best when he's allowed to grow and mature with his audience.

    The writing is so good and even though its early CG, the cell shading saves it. It was a great show and I wish we got more of it. I liked the more mature take on an animated spidey series, something we probably will never see again outside of video games or the sweet death of Disney

The ending was heart shattering and honestly I wish we could've gotten a different resolution. Head Over Heels, The Electro Storyline, and the Gaines Twins have been rent free in my mind for literal years and I will never not wish we got more of those vibes elsewhere. I've just never really seen anything that's scratched the same itch in a satisfying enough way.
