Podcast # 330-Message Board Q &A
I did see the Spectacular episodes where they first featured the Sinister Six, and commented at the time that I felt the animation was the best that had ever been done for Spider-Man. I also said back then that the way Spider-Man fought them was outstanding and true to the character & his abilities.
That being said – the Spec. cartoon just wasn’t for me. There were too many changes made to the source material that rubbed me the wrong way. I do agree though that it was way, way, way better than the current Ultimate series. Spec. wasn’t my cup of tea but it was well made.
Maybe Brad & I will cover that Spec. Sinister Six fight on Fight Club sometime. Hmm…
George,in the Spec cartoon,he preety much dealt with villians himself….
@3 Y’know, it would be cool if the podcast reviewed other Spider-Man cartoons too. Besides Ultimate. I would love to hear George review Spectacular or other Spidey cartoons….
@2 George, if you want a cartoon where Spider-man kicks all sorts of ass, I recommend Spectacular. I know you’re not a fan of the forced diversity, but seriously, give a chance.
We haven’t gotten through all the season two episodes yet. We’re changing how we get through the previous episodes though to give more focus on what’s current.
Were all of the Season 2 episodes reviewed? It feels like forever since we had an animated-series-review episode, I can’t remember.
