Theme Song:

Living on the edge
Fighting crime, spinning webs
Swinging from the highest ledge
He can leap above our heads

Ahh, ahh! (x2)

Villains on the rise
and the city's victimized
Looking up with no surprise
Arriving in the speed of time

Ahh, ahh! (x2)

This is the greatest Spider-Man cartoon. It perfectly brings the old Lee/Ditko stories to a modern time. The voice acting is superb, and the animation is quite fluid. Check it out!

A really great show, it's fantastic, amazing, dare i say, spectacular. Of all other Spider shows this one is most deepest and concentrated on characters, and every character has a great personality that you enjoy to watch. But, as a 90's Spider-man this show doesn't have ending. This isA really great show, it's fantastic, amazing, dare i say, spectacular.

But a great show anyway, that i like to watch again every year.… Expand

Ever since I was little, I've been a fan of Spider-Man and watched all the series. But this is the best Spider-Man adaption ever made. The show is great and manages to deliver what Spider-Man fans has been wanting. The design is something new and special to the Spider-Man series, in this serie we come across a lot of the villains from the series such as Venom, Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Rhino, Lizard, Shocker, Electro, Vulture, Mysterio and many more!

It is a big shame that this show has been cancelled, this animated Spider-Man serie is favorable and deserved more seasons. I am not sure if it will ever happen, but I really hope they will go back to this serie and continue to make more episodes because it is finding such a good animated show these days.… Expand

Its actually best Spider-man adaption. Peter's life and all the other kinds like villains too well explained. Only bad thing it has, there is no 3rd season so that story unfinished.

Spectacular Spider-Man rips off some scenes of the 'Spider-Man Trilogy' but this cartoon has enough action, good storyline, amazing characters and entertaining episodes to overcome those flaws.

The best Spider-man TV show. I only found out about this show after it had been canceled so that was a bummer. This show is funny, entertaining, and really feels like a comic book on screen which is just great. The story was really cool and it really was just a great show.
