Advantages: Guess it was good for youngsters

Disadvantages: Repetitive story lines

The Amazing Spider Man was a childrens animated version of the Spiderman adventures taken from the comic book stories produced I think by Marvel Comics. Spiderman was one of the super heroes that they featured and it has since gone on to a successful film franchise with Toby Mcguire in the lead role.

The cartoon version was made I guess in the sixties or seventies and featured a rather catchy sugnature tune. Peter Prker was the geky photographer for the Daily Planet by day and whenever danger was around and his spider senses started tingling he changed into his spiderman outfit and used his web slinging abilities to sort out the bad guys. He got hi powers after being bitten by a radioactive spider and all the villains he tackled had some sort of super power or ability as well.

The cartoons were all quite short and followed a similar story line each week, by todays standards the animation would be classed as rather crude but I guess at the time it was made it looked pretty good.

Summary: Cartoon version.
