Spider-Ads #26

by Brad Douglas

This is a video game ad that probablly appeared in GamePro back in 1991. This video game was a bit odd. It had Spidey teaming up with Black Cat, Hawkeye and the Submariner?

This ad probably appeared in magazines or newspapers advertising the new NBC show Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends. I don’t remember seeing it in any comics.

I remember feeding a couple quarters into this once as a kid. It was a bizarre game–the one thing that sticks in memory awake defeating Venom early on and he then grows into a giant as tall as the screen.

Spider-man walks like he’s depressed.
