Product Description ------------------- It's been a tough week for Peter Parker. His two best friends are mad at him, Aunt May is behind on the bills and Flash Thompson is still bullying him at school. It hasn't been a cakewalk for Spider-manTM either. The Enforcers are trying to destroy him, the Vulture is seeking revenge on Mr. Osborn, Electro is wreaking havoc on the city and his mentor, Dr. Connors, just transformed into The Lizard - a reptile on a rampage. But with great power comes great responsibility and Peter Parker wouldn't have it any other way. Release comprised of 3 episodes from the hit TV series! Synopsis -------- The fourth animated TV incarnation of Stan Lee and Steve Ditko's evergreen comic-book superhero and megamovie franchise Spider-Man, the weekly, 30-minute The Spectacular Spider-Man returned to basics as an 'origins' show, a la the live-action Superman derivation Smallville. Having only recently been bitten by a radioactive spider, 16-year-old high school junior Peter Parker was having a lot of trouble adjusting to his new powers, specifically the ability to climb walls, and his heightened 'spidey-sense'. This would be bothersome enough if Peter had been an adult, but as a high-schooler he was also struggling with such issues as teen angst, peer pressure, and raging hormones. In addition to surrounding the hero with younger versions of such friends, family members, and co-workers as Aunt May, Mary Jane, Gwen, and bombastic Daily Flash editor J. Jonah Jameson, the series was also well stocked with the familiar Spider-Man villains, among them the Sandman, Doc Ock, Venom, Electro, and the pre-Green Goblin Harry Osborn; foremost among the heavies was the Vulture, head of the fearsome assassination group known as the Enforcers. This release includes the first volume of episodes--Survival of the Fittest, Interactions and Natural Selection.
