This is what I've been waiting for. I loved watching this as a kid. All of my favorites are here: "Thunder Rumble", "Horn Of The Rhino", "The Witching Hour", "Fiddler On The Loose", "Phantom From The Depths Of Time", and "The Fantastik Fakar". I also get a chance to see one I've never seen before, and that's "Revolt In The Fifth Dimension" which is without a doubt Spiderman at it's heaviest. I know with "Revolt" they wouldn't show it on television as it was too "Psychedlic" for TV. I know my son won't see these for awhile. I feel that the only one thing that's wrong with this is a little music piece that was used in the second and third seasons, and it was done in the key of "F", and it was done up as a chase scene. I will have to look up episodes, and scenes later, but I know when that tune is in my head it drives me into a depression. I know it affects me more on weekends than weekdays, but it's possible it can affect me at anytime when I'm at work, at home, or on the road. I feel that part of the reason could be because of my lifestyle, and not having a regular job of Monday-Friday, and the constant shifting of my work week where I have a set days off for 6 months, and then have to go through the same thing again, and having sometimes where I have to work weekends, and then I don't I can't handle so much change all at once. It desensitives me, or I guess that's what my employer is hoping for, but I can't deal with all the shifting, and changing, and trying to juggle my life, and when I feel the most tired, and the most sad that's when this tune comes into my head, and then I get dragged down even further. Other than that this is Primo.

Spiderman is one of the most cherished(sp?) superheroes in history. So what's better than a great cartoon for a popular character? The first season pretty much has Spiderman taking on his greatest enemies such as Green Goblin, Dr. Octopus, and Electro. It is the absolute best season of the three. It captures the classic days of Spiderman before the "life changing stories" that appear in almost every issue now a days. Very good. The second season starts off amazingly with Peter's origin and a feature of the Kingpin. It then goes down hill with characters like the Molten Men and the Dark Ruler. The third one shouldn't even be mentioned as it is aweful. But overall this is a good buy, just ignore the third season.

This is an absolute must for any old Spiderman fans like me. I can remember watching these on the TV way back when you had to hop eand pray that the wind was blowing just right so that you could get reception on your TV, so I really appreciate the GREAT digital quality of the DVD box set. Also my three year old thinks it FANTASTIC and I would rather have him watch the older, less violent episodes than the ones that are currently being produced.

Wow, do these DVD's bring back memories. I can remember coming home from school in the mid to late 70's and watching the reruns on TV. I loved them then and I love watching them now. The animation isn't that bad and music is awesome. This is a must for any long time Spidey fan like me.

Much better than its sequel, Sisterhood of Traveling Pants.
