Spider-Man: The Animated Series "Kraven The Hunter" A ShortReview

It's been quite a while since I last spoke about anything from the classic Spider-Man: The Animated Series. Well with Kraven The Hunter just about to be released this seemed like the perfect chance to kill two birds with one stone and so then join me as I review the episode that sees Spider-Mn come face to face with Kraven for the first time with the episode in question being called simply just "Kraven The Hunter" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is Spidey has to protect a professor who is being harassed by her exboyfriend who is more animal then man. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad as it eas the kind of plot that you'd find in this show and to be fair this episode does the most with what very little plot that there is to begin with but that's also the issue as this episodes plot isn't all that strong of a plot to begin with with the plot of this episode also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Starring in this episode is Christopher Daniel Barnes as Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Ed Asner as J. Jonah Jameson. Also starring in this episode is Linda Gary as May Parker , Sara Ballantine as Mary Jane Watson , Jennifer Hale as Felicia Hardy , Rodney Saulsberry as Joseph Robertson , Gregg Berger as Sergei Kravinoff / Kraven The Hunter and Susan Beaubian as Mariah Crawford.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. With the actors from this show that you expect a really good performance from giving us exactly that but that's also the issue as this episodes could have been so much more better then what we got as all you have to is look at Batman: The Animated Series more specifically the episode "Heart Of Ice" which on paper could have been a really bad but due to how good that shows cast was they turned in great performances but here this episodes actors just seem lost on what to do acting wise with the acting that's in this very episode also being helped by the fact that this episodes script is just so good that all this episodes actors really have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance really will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very episode.

Doing the animation for this episode is TMS Entertainment , Seoul Movie , Koko Enterprises Company and Anima Sam Won. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad as it did look really good but at the same tome tho it was also lacking that extra special something to make it standout and feel different from all of the other animated superhero shows that were bring made and airing at the time but to this episodes credit when we do see some really solid looking animation it is something really does stand out because of how good that it was.

This was the first episode of the show to feature the character of Kraven The Hunter. With this episode giving us a good look at his backstory with him being a big game hunter who was forced into becoming a tour guide when hunting animals became illegal where he then fell in love with Mariah but only became the way that he is when after he was attacked Mariah was forced to give him an experimental drug which cure and heals all injuries but over time slowly turns you more animalistic which is a really good backstory for the character as it perfectly explains how the character became the way that he is in a way that feels real but givin that this is a comic book show then the makers of the show really should have leaned into aspect of the show and just had alot of fun not only with the character himself but also his backstory.

For some reason even tho the show is named after him Spider-Man himself barely has an impact on the plot of the episode. As Mariah was already working on a cure to give Kraven in the first place and when he's tasked with tracking her down by Kraven Mariah herself just goes straight to Kraven and heck it could even be argued that having Spider-Man in the story makes the story worse as its due to him that Robbie finds himself being kidnapped by Kraven all of which makes it feel like that Spider-Man was forced into this plot when not having him in the story wouldn't affect the actual plot of the episode with Spider-Man feeling more like a side character in an episode of his own show.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly nineteen minuets and forty nine seconds. Which is a solid running time for this episode to have but at the same given that alot of shows from around this same period usually had twenty two minuets it is still odd to see an episode have less then twenty minuets with this having the add on effect of making things like Kraven and Mariah falling in love feel rushed when it's something that would have been better told if the episode took its time in telling there romance like instead of having Kraven's backstory told in one go have it be told over the course of the episode as that would then make us the audience really care for there romance and have it play into whatever Peter is going through thus actually giving us a reason for Spidey actually being in this episode but I really will admit that this episode really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is an action show that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. As the episode really dies have some really good action scenes like having Kraven and Spidey fight each other on the side of a building which is a good idea and even there final fight is good in parts but the issue is tho us that the action on the whole despite having a few bright spots can also at times be really dull to look at as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least 

Overall while this wasn't the best episode of this show its also not the worst one either as there is a clear love for the characters and that world really seen all throughout this episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this episode in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very episode really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page , the official SpiderMan Animated fandom wiki page , the official Sony's Spider-Man Universe fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very review being the really great the official SpiderMan Animated fandom wiki page really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode with alot of them being better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on the official SpiderMan Animated fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Spider-Man: The Animated Series "Make A Wish" And "Attack Of The Octobot" Review

The Marvel Animated Universe was a universe that was dead for many decades and yet now thanks to X-Men '97 being as a good as it was it's back in the public eye once again. With one of the characters that cameoed not once but twice on the show also really being one of the many characters that got given his own show in the nineties and it's also a show that I really haven't really talked about for really sometime now and so then join me as I review the episodes that technically introduce us to Madame Web with the episodes in question being called simply just "Make A Wish" And "Attack Of The Octobot" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when Spider-Man accidentally blows up a science building during a fight with Doctor Octopus he finds himself down on his luck and must get some advice from the most unlikely of sources. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in these episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad with the plot of both episodes doing a good job of showing us a more vulnerable side to Spider-Man as well as showing us just what the character means to those around him without it being side out loud and while the plot of "Make A Wish" is basically just Spider-Man's origin story but cut down it was still a fun plot to see play out in this with this episode also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in these episodes is Christopher Daniel Barnes as Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Stephanie Eustase as Maria Taina Elizando. Also starring in these episodes is Efrem Zimbalist Jr. as Otto Octavius / Doctor Octopus , Joan Lee as Madame Web , Dimitra Arliss as Anastasia Hardy , Ed Asner as J. Jonah Jameson , Sara Ballantine as Mary Jane Watson , Rodney Saulsberry as Joseph Robertson , Scott Cleverdon as Michael Pingree , Roscoe Lee Browne as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin , Marla Rubinoff as Liz Allen , Patrick Labyorteaux as Flash Thompson , Michael Rye as Farley Stillwell , Linda Gary as May Parker , Bob Richardson as Bernard O'Brien , Anne-Marie Johnson as Mousie and Majel Barrett as Anna Watson.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these episodes well then in all honesty  in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good. With all of the shows cast turning in some really good performances in both of these episodes which really isn't all that surprising given who is starring in these episodes as alot of the cast in both of these episodes are a bunch of really good voice actors with even Christopher Daniel Barnes pretty much being the voice of Spider-Man and it's not hard to see why as he really does turn in a good performance in this episode with the acting in these episodes really being helped bu the fact that the script for both of these episodes being so good that all these episodes cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help the acting in these very episodes.

Doing the animation for these episodes is the legends and the greats that are currently over at TMS Entertainment. Now the interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad but that's also the problem as the animation in both of these episodes wasn't all that good either as alot of the animation just looks flat and rather uninteresting to look but while the 2D animation isn't that good it's aged alot better then the shows signature use of very early 3D CGI animation which has aged like milk as it just looks ugly and has dated horribly which is not the episodes fault as there wasn't the technology there to make good looking 3D CGI animation with the 2D animation not having an excuse for looking as bad as it was as X-Men: The Animated Series which came out around the same time has alot better animation then what we mostly got in both these episodes and this show as a whole.

These are episodes are technically the first appearence of Madame Web as while she does appear in the previous episode it's a silent cameo near the end of the episode. Where as in these two episodes she plays a part of the episodes with her being the one to send Spider-Man to Maria in the first place as a way to prepare him for something that will happen later on in the shows run which is a great use of the character as it shows us just how smart this character is as she knows everything about Spider-Man without seeing him and thankfully these episodes don't go into her backstory as that is something that could ruin the mystic of the character by giving away to much of how the character was before she got her powers where as now we the audience have the chance to make up our own backstory for the character and the chance to work out just what her backstory might be in the first place with this being helped by the fact that this episode really does give us a great use for the character as she only appears a vert small handful of times and that's really it which is a great way to us a character like this at it allows the episodes to still focus on Spider-man and yet at the exact same time introduce this new powerful character as well.

In what was a shocking move is the fact that this episode has a shockingly dark ending even for a nineties superhero animated series. As it's revealed at the end of "Attack Of The Octobot" that the kid helping to cheer Spider-Man is dieing of a terminal illness and that seeing Spider-Man was the one thing that she wanted to do before she died that right there is not only such a mature plot twist to have in your kids show but it's also one of the more darker plot twists that the Marvel Animated Universe would have as while this universe is known for having dark plot lines almost none of them involve a kid dieing and yet even tho the show rather rightfully doesn't show Maria dieing nor does it show us Spider-Man finding out that she's dieing it's still a dark plot twist to have and while it's something that would have been made all the more emotional if Spider-Man did find out the very next day that she died it works more by leaving her fate up in the air and it also makes it all the more shocking as well as for all we could know she could have died mere moments after Spider-Man drops her of at home where as that would be something that would have been taken away from us if we did find out that she ultimately died. 

The main villain of these episodes is Otto Octavius / Doctor Octopus who is a good villain but in this episode he's treated more of an afterthought. With us not even finding out why hes going after Spider-Man this time around all we know is is that he;s working with Wilson Fisk who is funding his research into creating the Octobot and yet we don't find out why he's targeting Spider-Man and while the main focus of the episodes might be Spider-Man and Maria you still need to give just as much attention to Doctor Octopus as while he is a great villain in any form of media by not giving him a reason for attacking Spider-Man this time around all your doing is making him come of as an afterthought like you suddenly realised that you need a villain in this episode superhero cartoon and so you just quickly wrote in the first one that you thought of and called it a day and that's enough for a character that is one of if not the most iconic Spider-Man villain as all that does is make the writing of the episode come across as being lazy when we know from the incredible twist at the end of the episode second episode that that really is far from being the case.

Now then these episodes has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty minuets and twenty one seconds for Make A wish and twenty minuets and twenty one seconds for Attack Of The Octobot. Which is pretty much the bogstandard running for this series to have and to be fair these episodes really doe make great use of that running time even tho Make A Wish is mostly made up of scenes of telling us Spider-Man's origin story with the main plot of bot of the episodes not really getting alot of focus in that episode which does make sense as the plot really isn't that thin with episode two making betting use of that running time as it was all about moving the plot of the episodes forward in a way that made sense where as episode one was mostly all about setting up things that would be paid of in episode two that's not to say that episode one is an episode that you can skip tho as this is where we do get hinds to Maria's fate but I will admit that these episodes really do have some really good pacing to both of them tho.

So now then as this is na action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in these episodes well then in all honesty i in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad. As this show in particualr wasn't really all tat known for having great looking action in it as it was more known for having good drama instead and to be fair both of these episodes do have some really good action in both of the episodes with us getting lots of chances to see Spider-Man do what he does best and do so in some really creative looking action scenes and it's during the action scenes in these episodes where the animation really does come alive as it's where we get alot of the best looking animation in both of these two episodes and it's also where we get to see just how fun this show really could be when it at it's best as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this is a solid introduction to the Madame Web character as even tho we don't get alot of screen time with her as a character just from these first two episodes it's quite clear as day that she's going to be treated alot better then what she was being treated like in the Madame Web movie in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all o the good ad as well as all of the bad things that in these very episodes in this very review and as such that really does mean that these very episodes really doe earn theme selves a combined grand old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very from the official Spider-Man Animated fandom wiki page , the official Sony's Spider-Man Universe fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from these very episodes that I used in this very review being the really great the official Spider-Man Animated fandom wiki page simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from these very episodes and are really of course on the official Spider-Man Animated fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Spider-Man: The Animated Series "The Spider Slayer" AND "Return Of The Spider Slayers" Review

 

Marvel fans it's been at least five or possibly even six months since I last spoke about an episode from any of the classic nineties Marvel animated TV shows and well I thought that i'd that right now by possibly spending the next few days talking about episodes from some of the classic nineties Marvel animated TV shows. and well better show to start if with the Spider-Man: The Animated Series. I will fully admit that I wasn't expecting either of the episodes that i'm basing this review on to be any good and yet I was honestly pleasantly surprised by how good these episodes truly where and so join me as I review episodes from the nineties Marvel animated series with the TV series itself being called either "Spider-Man" or is called just simply "Spider-Man: The Animated Series and the episodes in question are simply called "The Spider Slayer" and "Return Of The Spider Slayers" and so enjoy the review everyone.

The plot of these episodes is father and son duo Spencer and Alistair Smythe scheme to take down Spider-Man once and for all and it's up to Spider-man to stop them both before he ends up as a squished bug. In terms of what I thought about the plot of these episodes in all honesty the plot of these two episodes wasn't bad but at the same time this really didn't need to be a two part episode since you could have told the story of these two episodes in one episode but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Starring in both of these two episodes are Christopher Daniel Barnes as Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Edward Asner as J. Jonah Jameson. Also starring in these two episodes are Linda Gary as Aunt May Parker , Rodney Saulsberry as Joseph Robertson and as Soldier number 4 , Jennifer Hale as Felicia Hardy , Hank Azaria as Eddie Brock and as Soldier number 5 , Patrick Labyorteaux as Flash Thompson , Gary Imhoff as Harry Osborn and as Soldier number 2 , Edward Mulhare as Spencer Smythe , Maxwell Caulfield as Alistair Smythe and as Soldier number 1 , Neil Ross as Norman Osborn and as Soldier number 3 , Sara Ballantine as Mary Jane Watson and finally we have Roscoe Lee Brown as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin.

In terms of what I thought about the acting that's featured in these two episodes in all honesty the acting that's featured in these two episodes is in all honesty really good and in very humble and as well as in my very honest opinion anyway and I say that the acting that's featured in these two episodes is in all honesty really good simply because I feel that's true. Since all of the actors that are starring in these two episodes do a really good job with their respective characters and in the cases of actors like Hank Azaria , Jennifer Hale and Linda Gary who are all voice acting legends and as such it makes sense that those three actors would turn in great performances in these two episodes but that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Doing the animation for these episodes and as well as the whole series is TMS Entertainment , Seoul Movie , Anima Sam Won and Koko Enterprises Company. Now I have no idea which one of these studios did the animation for these particular episodes but I do know that they did the animation for this show as a whole. In terms of what I thought about the animation that's featured / presented to us in these two episodes in all honesty the animation that's featured in these two episodes is alot better then what thought it was going to because nineties TV animation doesn't always hold up that well at least in my experience but no the animation that's featured / presented to us in these two episodes holds up really well with there being alot of really fluid movements for alot of the characters and the backgrounds (for the time that this episode was made and broadcast) look really good but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.  

For those that don't know these are the two episodes that introduce both Wilson Fisk / Kingpin and Mary Jane Watson into the Spider-Man: The Animated Series canon / world. However what I found to be interesting is that this show seemed to be possibly teeing up a relationship between Peter Parker and Felicia Hardy which is honestly a coupling / couple that I would have loved to have seen in this show simply because we've seen Peter and Mary Jane Watson be a couple for countless Spider-Man adaptations and as such it would have been nice if this version of Spider-Man didn't date Mary Jane Watson but instead chose to go out with Felicia Hardy but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

I will admit that I never noticed that this version of Spider-Man maintained Spider-Man's sense of humour and this is something that I personally have very mixed feeling about. Since on the one hand having Spider-Man make jokes in certain situations oddly makes alot of sense and is something that that character has done in the past but at the same time these episodes have Spider-Man tell jokes were a joke isn't needed like for example having Spider-Man make a joke while he's just been told that he has exactly one hour left to live which is something that Spider-Man would never do but that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Lets talk for a second about these episodes villains who are Spencer and Alistair Smythe , Norman Osbourne and Wilson Fisk / Kingpin. In my opinion these two episodes didn't really need four main villains if anything these two episodes just needed three villains since Alistair Smythes motivation is to get revenge on Spider-Man for the death of his father Spencer Smythe and as such you don't really need Norman Osbourne in these episodes since he adds nothing to either episode since you could have had Wilson Fisk / Kingpin be the one that's giving Spencer and Alistair Smythe the money that they need to build The Spider Slayer robots and as for Spencer Smythe I honestly liked that he wasn't evil since he was just trying to do the right thing by his son Alistair Smythe and that honestly made the death of Spencer Smythe and the turn to the evil side of things for Alistair Smythe all the more tragic but that's just what I think and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Now then the combined total running time for these two episodes is forty minuets and five seconds and like I said at the start if this review these episodes didn't need there story to be told over two episodes. Since you could tell the exact same story in one episode with the first half of the episode dealing with the death of Spencer Smythe and the second episode dealing with the fall from the side of good of Alistair Smythe but I will admit that both episodes have some really good pacing in my very humble and as well as in my very honest opinion anyways.

Now then boys and girls since this is an action show after all and there is some / alot of action to be found in these very episodes it only makes sense that I now take the tie to talk about the actions that's featured / presented to us in these episodes and if i'm being honest the action that's presented to us in these episodes is really freaking good. Simply because the action that's presented to us in these episodes is really freaking exciting and I have to admit the action that's in "Return Of The Spider Slayers" actually had me on the edge of my seat because that's how good the action was in my humble and very honest opinion anyways.

Overall while it was very pointless to make these two episodes basically a two part episode since they have totally different stories there is alot of good to be found in both of these episodes. Now then boys and girls since i've talked about both if the good things in this episodes in this actual review and both of the bad things that are in this episode in this actual review both of these episodes get a combined score of a 7.5 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got the images that I used in this very review well I got all of the images that I used in this very review from the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page and nowhere else. Since I only went to the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page and nowhere else I have to no choice but to recommend that you guys use the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page if you want to use images from alot of the nineties Marvel TV animated TV shows and alot of the images that are on the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page are fairly high definition as well as being fairly high quality but that's just what I think and as well as being in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Spider-Man: The Animated Series "Night Of The Lizard" Review

 

Marvel fans i've taken a look at many Marvel movies in the past and I will be looking at more in the future however the one thing that i've very rarely done is look at the companies previous animated projects. Which is a shame because alot of those shows especially the ones in the nineties served as my introduction to those characters with all that in mind here is my review of the very first episode of the 1994 Spider-Man animated series "Night Of The Lizard" enjoy comic book and animation fans and everyone inbetween.

The plot of the episode is there's a new creature in New York and Peter Parker and Eddie Brock are both tasked with getting pictures with the winner receiving a prize meanwhile Spider-Man has to find out who the creature is before it's to late. Plot wise I felt that the episode was pretty good with the story moving along at a nice pace but the story wasn't the series best in my opinion but it did a good job f setting up most of the main cast of characters.

Starring in the episode is Christopher Daniel Barnes as Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Edward Asner as J. Jonah Jameson. Also starring in the episode is , Linda Gary as Aunt May Parker , Rodney Saulsberry as Joseph Robertson , Liz Georges as Debra Whitman , Hank Azaria as Eddie Brock and Bud , Joseph Campanella as Curt Connors / Lizard , Giselle Loren as Margaret Connors , Toby Scott Ganger as Billy Connors and Ken Chandler as Sam.

As for what I thought about the acting in the episode it honestly wasn't that bad but at the same time I feel that it could have been alot better. While the acting was indeed good and was very passable for the episode that's all it was and that to me isn't a good thing since you should always be trying to put in a solid performance that could rival better shows and not turn in a performance that would earn you a paycheck.

Doing the animation for not only this episode but also the whole series is TMS Entertainment who have mainly worked on anime like Akira and episodes of Batman: the Animated Series among many others. The animation here I thought for the time that this show was made it was honestly really good i'm not going to say that it's amazing animation because it's really not but for a mid nineties animated show it's really good.

That said however there is something that we have to talk about and that's the fact that not only this episode but this entire series makes use of CGI. Which is just as bad as you'd think it would be don't get me wrong as a kid growing up when this show was I thought that the CGI looked really good but yikes it hasn't aged well at all the only good thing about the CGI is they don't use it often in this episode but when they do my god do you notice it.

Now this is something that I never noticed before now but to me the character of Debra Whitman (Liz Georges) looks so much like Betty Ross from the nineties Incredible Hulk animated series. I know that these shows were produced at least a year apart and so chances of the studio working on The Incredible Hulk getting there hands on the Debra character model are very unlikely but one cannot help but wonder why they chose to make Betty Ross character look so similar to Debra.

Now as you can no doubt work out by any of the above images this episode and the show aired on Fox Kids starting in 1994 and lasted until 1998 which I think makes it the longest running Marvel animated series of the nineties but I might be wrong. Either way way there is no way in hell you can tell that this show was made in the nineties apart from the dated CGI since the episode doesn't make any kind of reference to things from the nineties which oddly makes the episode feel timeless.

I have to say that I liked how they did Lizard in this episode which is they basically made him a Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde type of character. With Lizard not really being able to remember much of what his human half is doing and what Curt's memories are all of which make him a vastly interesting character since your now wondering if the character is acting like this because he's evil or is it because he feels threatened by Spider-Man basically breaking into his home.

Let's talk about the show's theme song because it really needs to be talked about just like any other superhero show that came out around this time the theme song is so freaking good. Which shouldn't come as a surprise since it was performed by the lead guitarist of Aerosmith Joe Perry it's just a shame that the lyrics don't quite match up the awesome electric guitar but the theme song is still so freaking good.

Now then since this is an action show that means that we have to talk about the action that's in this episode. Which yeah is exactly what you'd think it would be like for a nineties animated action show in that there's not much action when there it's just two people fighting but that to me works in the episodes favour since the focus of the episode isn't the action it's the story being told and the characters but I still would have liked to better action tho.

Overall this episode wasn't that bad since it does a good job of setting up the world and the characters in the show. That being said however I do feel that this episode could have been since there are alot of issues with the episode which i've covered in this review but at the same time I feel that those issues serve as part of both the show and the episodes charm and so to change them would cause both the episode and the show to loose something and so this episode gets a 7 out of 10 from me.

All images used in this review were gathered from the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page and oddly enough nowhere else. I wasn't expecting tho find any of these images to be high definition and so I wasn't shocked at all to see that there are very little HD images as such I can't really recommend you use the official Marvel Animated Universe fandom wiki page but if you want to use it then I say go for it.

Some Cartoons I Like But Don't Get As Much Attention From Cartoon Fans

Cartoons fans alot of shows come and go some are good some are bad so it's no wonder that alot of shows don't get attention from the cartoon community which is why i'm here to let you know about some of the shows that I like but don't get much attention from fans.

Mr. Bean: The Animated Series

With this show I kinda get why it's not talked about as much since the live action show wasn't big America but the character and the live action show were huge in Britain so I have to ask why don't us Brits talk about the show as much?

Animaniacs

I've spoken before about my love for this show so I won't go on about why we should be talking about it still but with news of the reboot I honestly think that Cartoon fans should give this gem the attention it deserves now let us all hope that the reboot can do the original any sort of justice.

Batman: The Animated Series

People better then myself have said why this show is fantastic and in all honesty it deserves all of the praise that it gets from Batman fans but the fact remains that it's not talked about by cartoon fans and i'm not sure why that is this is a really great series for both fans old and new and it's the series that gave the world Harley Quinn and Mark Hamill as The Joker.

Spider-Man: The Animated Series

If Batman: The Animated Series was really good this show at times just wasn't good at all but that didn't stop it from being fun and for honestly being the best animated series to feature Spider-Man ever and I do wish Marvel would make a sequel comic just so we can visit that world again.

X-Men: The Animated Series

Yes there really was a 90's X-Men show and yeah it was pretty awesome now I admit that I don't remember much about the show inf act for a few years I forgot all about it but a few months ago I did watch the first two episodes and it still holds up the reason why I don't think this holds is just due to how nineties it is and by that I mean the show is full of jokes you'd only get if you were born in the nineties and is full of nineties technology.

Tiny Toon Adventures

Again the reason why I think people don't talk about this show is the fact it stopped airing in 1992 however it is still a good show and it's one that I frequently go and re-watch whenever I want to watch a cartoon that will make me laugh and it got two specials in 1994.

Ducktales (1987 Series)

I have to stress that this is all about the 1987 show not the awesome reboot but it seems to me that as i'm doing this list you have to be over a certain age to even know about these shows and this is especially true for Ducktales since it started in the late 80's and I want fans of the classic show to try and convince fans of the reboot to give this show a try.

Hot Streets

Right now it feels like i'm the only one who's talking about this show and for the life of me I don't see why that's the case it's a truly good show for me this show is the next Rick And Morty it's funny , it's clever and it has some freaking strange animation and you know what I freaking love it.
