Spider-Man (1967)

Spider-Man is an American-Canadian animated television series which is the first based on the comic book series of the same name by Marvel Comics, which originally aired on ABC from September 9, 1967 to June 14, 1970. The series was produced by Grantray-Lawrence Animation (which also produced another Marvel-related series) during season one, and was then replaced by Krantz Films in the following seasons.

Peter Parker is a high school student whose life changes when he develops extraordinary strength and powers similar to those of a spider after being bitten by a radioactive version of one. Parker decides to become a crime-fighting, costumed superhero that can do "whatever a spider can", but must deal with family tragedies, personal problems and the insecurity of youth. As Spider-Man, Parker risks his life to fight super-powered criminals such as Doctor Octopus, Mysterio and the Green Goblin. Peter is also a freelance photographer for the Daily Bugle, but editor J. Jonah Jameson considers Spider-Man a criminal and writes front-page headlines critical of his activities.
