Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Eight years before Tobey Maguire was born, the animated Spider-Man spun his first web across America's television screens. The program ran from 1967 through 1970 on ABC, and imprinted its theme song, "Spider-Man, Spider-Man/ Does whatever a spider can / Spins a web, any size / Catches thieves--just like flies" on a generation of viewers.
The comic book Spider-Man, who debuted in Marvel's Amazing Fantasy in 1962, epitomized the superhero as antihero. During his battles with bizarre villains, Peter Parker was beset by self-doubts and personal problems. The animated Spider-Man was a straightforward action superhero who was too busy performing weird stunts like fashioning a boat and motor out of spider webs to worry or agonize.
From the opening titles that announce the program is "in COLOR," Spider-Man feels dated. When he fights Electro, Spidey can fend off blasts of electricity because he's added "just a little asbestos to my web liquid"; when he discovers the extent of his new powers, Peter dreams of a spot on The Ed Sullivan Show. Although the directors include Ralph Bakshi and former Disney artist Clyde Geronimi, the animation is extremely limited. The same shots of Spiderman swinging over New York appear again and again. But these limits probably won't trouble nostalgic adults who grew up watching Spider-Man on Saturday mornings: "Wherever there's a hang-up / You'll find the Spider-Man!" (Unrated, suitable for ages 7 and older: cartoon violence, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

I was only familiar with the 60s Spider-Man Series due to its theme. I didn't pick up this set when it was initially released (around the time the 1st Spider-Man movie was released) because at thought it was too corny to watch. As of late, I've become more nostalgic of some animation that aired before my birth, and after viewing a few episodes on [...], I realized this series is not just good for its time, it holds up quite nicely to TV animation of today.

My brother when he was younger, he used to record on betamax, some chapters of this spider man collection. Now, when i saw that they sold the collection on DVD i inmediatly bought it and i almost cry when istarted watching them, i saw so many chapters that i've never seen and i recomend this for the fans that love this series!! AMAZING!

Anyone old enough to remember this classic cartoon has fond memories of it! Even with the static animation and multi-used action shots, it's better than any newer version of this iconic super hero. What I remembered most about it, was the hip, swinging music soundtrack and the fact that the characters look like they did in the comic book. This DVD set will let you relive those wonderful times in spades! The 6 disc collection has every episode on it and most of them have been remastered to look pretty ... Read More

Yes, This is the DVD Box Set we've waited for,
It immediately brought back all childhood memories of Spiderman especially the swinging, jazzin, bebopping, soundtrack. I was patting my foot throughout the entire first viewing of this set. This is the quintessential Spiderman Box Set that spawned the recent incarnation of live action movies. It's the ultimate for any Spidey lover. I absolutely LOVED discs 1-3, However after that it's a downward spiral. To me it was almost unbearable to watch ... Read More

I loved these cartoons as a kid. A lot were on the Wee Willie Webber show in Philadelphia. As an adult I can see so many flaws. I'll list them for your amusement.
1) The store in the opening scenes is first seen as JEWLERY (no typo by me) store...in the next swing by it is spelled correctly as JEWELRY.
2) Unless spiderman has several suits and changed them in mid flight there were many errors in continuity. The spider on his back (looks more like a tic) sometimes had six legs, ... Read More
