Jonah Jameson's Hitler moustache.ĭespite the cheap look, hokey stories and silly dialogue, the show is generally regarded fondly by fans who remember the series. Many of the classic villains appear in this series, including all of those that Raimi ended up using (with the exception of Venom). The color scheme maintained the four colors of the comics and most of the established villains looked like their news print counterparts. Still, even with the cheap production value, the show looked and felt like Spider-Man. In fact, two episodes of the series were produced by taking Bakshi's earlier series, Rocket Robin Hood, taking out the character cells, and putting in Spider-Man. The show's animation was low budget, and got even lower when Bakshi got involved. Production was then picked up by Krantz Films with soon-to-be legendary animator Ralph Bakshi overseeing the series. Although the first season of Spider-Man was a success, Grantray-Lawrence went out of business after the show's first year. This original incarnation was an animated series produced by Canadian studio Grantray-Lawrence Animation. In 1967, five years after making his first appearance in comic books, Spider-Man made his first appearance on television.
