I can never decide if I like these early ones that were similar to the comics more, or if I prefer the later, totally surreal ones where they borrowed stuff from Rocket Robin Hood. I love it all.
beautiful Grantray-Lawrence animation...not the freaky Bakshi cartoons. dont get me wrong, i like Bakshi animation, but it's TOO psychedelic and surreal!
The always-classy Torontonian Carl Banas as the voice of the Scorpion, and dependable Tom Harvey as scientist Stillwell. Harvey was also Electro, the Radiation Specialist and Sandman.
Excellent, excellent voice talent, all trained as radio talents.
Fantastic upload. The art in this was somehow better than a lot of others, especially when Spidey returns to JJJ's office in 8:13 to make those web balls. Lovely detail and creative posturing here.
Probably about the best episode of the old Spiderman tv series. All of the first season had pretty good sound/music editing but the animation in this episode is an improvement over earlier episodes. The choice of dramatic angles and adroit use of 'camera movement' make the motion look less awkward and the cartoon more contemporary in general. The greater involvement of JJJ in the plot as well as the fact that that the Scorpion is such a powerful adversary also make the story more involving.
7:02--Notice how Jamison refers to him as "Peter" instead of just "Parker" like he normally does. When he's shaking in his boots, and about ready to have an accident in his pants, this fearless publisher needs everyone to be his personal buddy for protection.
throw ur hands up in the sky shawty shy its the party shwty* gone touch the roofb and she got them bottles popin on the roof so throw ur hands in the ahyer!
the best thing about spiderman is that it only takes him 10 mins to take down a bad guy twice.
most heros these days take 30 mins to take someone down

I definitely agree, it holds up very well! When I think of spider man, for me it's this cartoon version that comes to mind.
