Title: Spectacular Spider Man-Your friendly neighborhood web crawling hero.

Easily one of the best cartoons of recent times. VA is spot on for all the characters, animation is very fluid and leads to great fights between Spidey and his rogues, episodes are all linked in some way, and has tons of throwbacks and fanservice for every past Spiderman series. It does it's job well. Discuss the most recent Spider Man incarnation. And you can't deny the awesome main theme.

Thank you for the links. I've heard good things about this, so I've been planning to watching for a long while.

I've seen a couple of episodes. It's pretty good compared to the other [parasitic bomb] that people are calling cartoons now-a-days.

You won't regret it. Spectacular Spider Man is easily one of the best adaptations of Spider Man ever. Everything for the most part is high quality. It's very... spectacular.  8D

I have to admit this is a damn fine series, but I'll always have a soft spot to the 90s series.

And who can forget that catchy tune from the 60s series?

I can't! 8) I'm just glad that the web crawler has the honor of being one of the animated greats. Though the new song does kick ass too... and even Spider Man Unlimited had a great theme... sort of.

Easily one of the best things ever done in the history of Music! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5P8lrgBtcU)

Keeping with the Spidey aspect, I was a huge fan of the MTV Spider-Man cartoon.  I've always loved MainFrame's animation, and I thought they did a truly Amazing & Spectacular job with how they animated Spider-Man.  It was the first venue I've ever seen Spider-Man that made him actually, truly look like a Human Spider.  It was awesome.

After watching the first episode last night (thanx for the YouTube link, Jazz), it's actually pretty fun.  Lou told me about it before, and it sounded fun & interesting, just not enough to get me up early to watch it on a Saturday Morning.  Heh, those days are over!

There's a FULL version of the theme song? Oh man, and I though the TV version was catchy!

This be not "Wolverine and the X-men".

Still, I think I'll finally watch it.

That reminds me, the 9-s X-Men Animated Series is coming to DVD today. Better go pick up a copy.

Hmm...
The first 2 seasons finished airing here just last week, but I have to agree it was a great show to watch.
It still loses out that one 90s Spiderman, but, just by a tiny bit.
Oh, the Green Goblin was TOTALLY awesome. :3

This show is [tornado fang]ing awesome. I was surprised how close they kept things to the comics.

This. Also, a minor thought: the web-swinging animation is so [tornado fang]ing flawless in the show. I was actually marveling at just that for a bit while I was watching it. XD

See, that was the problem I always had with the 90's Spidey cartoon.  The Web Swinging was pretty bland.  That, and a lot of the stories weren't that good.  However, this show's animation is pretty well done.  That's why I loved the MTV Spidey show as well.
