The Spectacular Spider-Man is considered by many as one of the greatest superhero series ever made and one of the best versions of Spider-Man ever produced. Premiering on March 8, 2008, on the Kids WB Block, The Spectacular Spider-Man was the reimagining of the Spider-Man origin story drawing from many different comic books. It was the first Spider-Man series since the CGI animated Spider-Man: The New Animated Series in 2003 and was originally intended to keep the character in the spotlight for kids between the release of Spider-Man 3 and the then planned Spider-Man 4 set for release in 2011. The series’ second season moved over to Disney XD.The Spectacular Spider-Man Season 1-2 Download.
Despite receiving critical and audience praise with plans for 52 episodes, the animated series was canceled after two seasons. The series’ cancellation was one of the many fallouts from Disney’s acquisition of Marvel, as the series was produced by Sony Pictures Television, and Sony relinquished the television rights to Spider-Man in 2009 to Marvel just before the purchase of Disney, meaning that both Disney and Sony-owned parts of the series and could not move forward without the cooperation of the other.
Disney moved forward with a new Spider-Man series to tie into the launch of The Amazing Spider-Man in 2012, titled Ultimate Spider-Man. Despite fans’ desires to see The Spectacular Spider-Man return, it appears to be out of the realm of possibility. Yet despite that, it hasn’t stopped fans from revisiting the series and giving new audiences looking for more Spider-Man a chance to discover it for the first time. The series finally made its Netflix debut in the United States recently, so now is the perfect time to check out what many consider to be the best Spider-Man cartoon ever. Here are a few reasons why it has remained so popular.
