7/10
Good teenage escapism

I remember this series when it aired in 1996/1997 and I enjoyed it making those years memorable. The start of the show was good introducing Spider-man and the many villains he encountered especially the Kingpin. The comic book is especially well adapted to the Television series, though I think Kingfisher comics would of kept it more conventional and coherent.

The story lines and most of the characters were well written in to the scenario of the series, though I thought the animation was to digital it would of been more original had it been traditional anime art styles. His relationship with his girlfriend and his exciting job as a photographer was also compelling. The music was good and so was the introduction to the show. As a teenager I loved it and it kept me entertained

The elements I didn't like was that towards the end the series dragged and the evolution of the series developed to slowly rather then reaching a final conclusion on his experiences as Spider- man and Peter Parker on how he matured and synthesised the two in to an auspicious ending. A few of the villains were also vile to enjoy the show i.e Venom.
