This dvd set brings back memories of when I was a kid, and now I can share it with my 4 yr son. He loves this dvd set and it has been on so much in my house recently I find myself constantly humming the song while at work. This is a great collection and a much better alternative to the more recent remakes, or any of the other garbage cartoons that are out there. Sure it may be cheesy but him watching this gives me no worries. I highly recommend this set to anyone with young sons (or daughters) or if you want to relive some of your childhood memories.

I yelled audibly when I saw this DVD set! Not remastered in any way. This is a treasure for all of us who ran home to watch it! Campy, Cheesy and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 60's! It's a necessary part of any collection! What are you waiting for? Stop reading this and order it!

Like others here, my young son loves Spider-Man but the 2000 series contains big breasts, half shirts and swearing. The '67 box set is the Spider-Man I grew up watching in the 70's. I love the nostalgia and my son and I have a blast watching the show together. Great quality and packaging. A must for die hard Spidey fans or those who have young ones who love Spider-Man.

Our 3 year old son is very much into Spiderman. However, the other Spiderman cartoons are all to violent for a 3 year old. Then I started looking for the old ones that my husband and I watched in reruns when we were young and they are perfect. I recommend this for all ages but especially the young superhero fans.

Never having been a fan of Spider-Man before (much less have known who Peter Parker was), I remember going to the movie theatres when the first movie came out. It wasn't until when Spider-Man 2 came out that I really found myself wanting to see me, read some of his comics books, and watch all these vintage cartoons.
I don't know how long this collection has been out of Amazon's stock, but I saw two copies on the shelves at a local media store around the time Spider-Man 3 came out. Of course, I picked one up knowing I may never come across it again. I could not be happier that I have.
The collection is not entirely in order of the events in Parker's life, but they are as they aired on television. One of my favorite episodes is the one where Parker is biten by the radioactive spider and the phenomenon takes place (which is on Disc 3, I think).
Although I did not grow up on Spider-Man or any other comic book stuff, I really do enjoy watching these cartoons and their charm. Spidey's style of swinging in the air and sprouting web from his wrists are different than what the audience sees in the other popular media forms we've seen of him. However, this is where Spidey first began on television. If these cartoons did not exist, who knows if the subsequential cartoons and movies that we love today we even be. The color is brilliant. The music, especially the theme song, is somewhat of the comical sense, nevertheless fills the audience with joy and anticipation of what's coming in each adventure. A classic of a charecter, this collection is a classic in of itself.
