I know that this show was the first attempt to put the "Spiderman" character onto the small screen but in my opinion, it has become slightly over-rated as there have been far better adaptations since. However, the above show isn't bad and there are some good stories. The animation is very limited and therefore, the lack of money tends to show. I recall first seeing this late 1960s attempt back in the late 1980s. I had rented a video that had 2 episodes and I still remember the first episode from the video - it had Dr. Octopus in it. I felt so disappointed by the series as I was expecting to see the classic 1981 version. In the ensuing years, I have grown to quite enjoy this early series, albeit in a limited way. The theme tune is rather corny to say the least but it isn't hard on the ears.
