The origin of one of Marvel's most-loved heroines! What's not to love? The video is 22 minutes of fun that involves the telling of Firestar's origin, how she came to join the X-Men and later the Spider-Friends. All this while teaming up with the X-Men in the "present day" to stop Juggernaut! Great, vintage cartoon fun!

I liked this movie very much, it is so cool. I tnink it was a good idea to put Fire Star in the X-MEN even though she wasn't in the comics. The cast of X-MEN in this are Cyclops,Angel,Storm, and Wolverine. The villian is Juggernaut. In this episode Fire Star tells the story of her origin. I think it is a super, super hero episode. You ought to see it. I lked the part were Angelica gets revenge on Bonnie when she wrecks her doll house. Also when they fight the Juggernaut. I wish it could of been lke that on The Origin of The ICE MAN. I think the X-MEN are better than Spderman. Don't get me wrong I do like Spiderman. I just like X-MEN better. I think that there should of been a longer scene with Magneto and the Sentinal. This has been a great episode, take my advice.

I know that this is Spider-Man's series, but ever since Firestar and Iceman teamed with him, the show became a place for a lot of mutant reference. There were also Sunfire, Magneto with the Blob, the Toad and Mastermind from the Brotherhood, and the X-Men themselves. Firestar's origin was told, which showed her dealing with life as an outcast because she was poor (TV couldn't deal with the subject of mutant rascism back then). That rich spoiled brat Bonnie was the catalyst, but Angelica's father always kept her head straight. the scenes where Angelica did a "Carrie" when she lost her cool at the high school prom and got her payback when she was framed were great. To keep the action going was the heroes' battle against the unstoppable Juggernaut, but teamwork made Juggy very stoppable. Due to the fact that Spidey was kept mostly in the background, it's truly exciting (and uncut, if you saw the edited versions on UPN and ABC Family recently). I recommend the video ... or I should say "go for it"!

For fans of the 80s cartoon Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, this is definately one episode that should not be missed. The television series centered around the Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man (voiced by Dan Gilvezan) and his two similarly powered roomates Iceman and Firestar. In this video, A Firestar Is Born, we discover the secret origin of the superhero Firestar! Actress Kathy Garver, best known as Cissy from the television series Family Affair, voices the firey superhero who's real name is Angelica Jones. Born a mutant and poor, Angelica was constantly belittled by fellow schoolmates and called 'Angelica Jinx'. When she discovers she has amazing abilities she tries to end the school teasing once and for all. Along the way she even meets and joins the mutant superheroes the X-Men. And if that isn't enough, Spider-Man and pals must also contend with the super strong villain The Juggernaut! This is a really exciting and fun episode and is sure to be favorites of many 'kids' past, present and future.
