    hope: its great and paves the way for a Marvel animation renaissance, reviving other Marvel cartoons and creating new Marvel cartoons too of high quality.

    fear: its bad and it gets forgotten as quickly and doesn't make any sort of positive ripple effect.

      The only other shows that'd even be considered for revival are Spider-Man TAS, and Spectacular Spider-Man if they can play nice with Sony.

        Not me. If this is CG I'm 100% out. It's not about having standards, it's simply I can't engage with CG animation. It looks fake and it looks bad. Even when it's expensive, which this won't be.

    My main fear is that outside of too much time passing since the original, it won't feel nearly as authentic in adapting the comics. That is, it'll feel more like they're speed running the most popular storylines rather than making them fit naturally with the cartoon continuity.

    Also the contrast between the returning cast and the newcomers making it harder to enjoy.

      He's going to be gay/pansexual and nonbinary.

      The mouse can dredge up Alyson Court, but Capcom had Claire played by a goblin in the RE2 remake?

      She's not voicing Jubilee, she "voluntarily" gave up the role so an Asian could get it because being Asian means she's somehow better able to voice the character than the person who spent 5 seasons voicing her.

      My guess is that they use her for a Kitty guest appearance or maybe they do a pseudo-Generation X episode and have her voice Husk. I was going to say voice Blink but Blink is black now so no go for whitey.

    That the animation doesn't look like shit and is at least as good as the original cartoon. This shouldn't be a high bar to clear, yet it is.

    That the animation is the typical, bottom-budget fare we always get from Disney these days.

    I'm an adult, I won't watch your cartoon if it looks like shit. You can get away with that Cartoon Network-level shit with young kids and college-aged stoners but not with 40-somethings, which this show is clearly aimed at.

    I assume any 00s/10s story lines are off-limits considering that they're still adapting 80s era Claremont story lines with Inferno and Headmaster Magneto being in 97 merch but after seeing that X-Cutioner is showing up, I'd be interested in seeing TAS version of Onslaught, would be a cool way of bringing back Xavier and a moral dilemma for Magneto.

    Also with it all under Disney banner, would be cool to see this universe version of other Marvel heroes and finger crossed...maybe an appearance from TAS Spiderman?

      We should have gotten Kitty, but the X-Men: Pryde of the X-Men pilot failed and they decided not to have her as a main character in the '92 series because of it. (That pilot also had Aussie sounding Wolverine too.)

        That's not why. It's because she was a member of Excalibur at the time. The 1992 show was largely based off of the roster in the comics at that point when Jim Lee was doing the art. It's the same reason Nightcrawler wasn't there in the beginning.

      Proposed ideas for Season Six from back in the day...
      >Madame Web would have taken Spider-Man to 19th century London where he would have found Mary Jane who had amnesia. While in 19th century London, Spider-Man would have fought Carnage who was revealed to be Jack the Ripper.
      >Mysterio would have been revealed to be alive and in possession of the Time Dilation Accelerator. Mysterio would have used the Time Dilation Accelerator to rob banks. However, one of the portals would have accidentally taken Mysterio to the another dimension where he would have met Dormammu. Mysterio would have then become Dormammu’s new servant and would try to bring him into our world. Spider-Man would have then teamed up with Ghost Rider to defeat both Dormammu and Mysterio.
      >The villain Beetle might have appeared in an episode.
      >Norman Osborn would have returned from limbo and taken back the role of the Green Goblin from his son, Harry.
      >Richard Fisk would have returned as a masked criminal called the Rose and was going to frame the Daily Bugle reporter Ned Leeds.
      >Since James Cameron's Spider-Man film was canceled it is possible that Sandman would have appeared in season six.
      >Betty Brandt would have been introduced as Joe "Robbie" Robertson's assistant and she would have had a crush on Peter Parker. Character designs were created but she was never introduced. Her name was also spelled Betty Brandt instead of Betty Brant.

          The only thing that may have been good is the first one:
          Web would have taken Spider-Man to 19th century London where he would have found Mary Jane who had amnesia. While in 19th century London, Spider-Man would have fought Carnage who was revealed to be Jack the Ripper.
          Apparently it was going to have a load of Spider-Man villains in 19th century London and be a bigger arc/thing. There was a more complete script somewhere that I think some of the voice actors read at a convention sometime but I can't find it.

Up ahead they see a dark figure, which turns out to be MJ. Spider-Man tries to reach her, but the vortex scrambles his webbing. Suddenly a bolt of electricity sends them flying into the center of the vortex. Spider-Man and Madame Web come crashing down. Madame Web's chair is damaged in the crash and her link to this reality is broken. Madame Web fades away, leaving Spider-Man alone, in a new unknown dimension to continue his search for Mary Jane.

As he rides on top of the train, he notices a familiar sight. It's Big Ben. He has landed in London. As he finds a newspaper, he discovers that Jack the Ripper is at large and "Professor Challenger Launches Expedition To Find Lost World". What were just stories in Peter's world appear to be real in this one.

As Spider-Man races across building tops above looking for MJ, he hears a scream and immediately comes to the young woman's rescue only to find that Jack the Ripper is none other than his old foe, Carnage.
            >Spider-Man and Carnage battle. Carnage slices a gaslight in half and then breaks both of Spider-Man's Web-Shooters. Carnage uses the gas coming from the open glass light to ignite a fire and runs off. Spider-Man quickly uses his strength to bend the gas light and stop the gas from leaking.

Peter sneaks away and discovers a machine down the hall. He quickly orders Wells to shut it off, realizing that Wells has been working on a time-machine and that same machine must have been what caused himself, Madame Web, Carnage, and Mary Jane to come to his reality.

        The 19th century London is a dump idea that should be replaced with something more familiar to what we have nowadays.

        Besides, I want the Spider-Marriage not to be ruined in this reality.

        There was an attraction in Universal Studios Park about Spider-Man that was influenced by this series. Spidey fought the "Sinister Syndicate", composed by Doc Ock, Hobgoblin, Scream, Electro and Hydro-Man. They could adapt something like that.

        I believe Spidercide could have appeared in the main reality of the show; as a product of Warren combining Spider-Man's DNA with Hydro-Man's powers.

A Spider-Man TAS revival having completely different writers might not be so bad simply because the show got worse as it went. Seasons 4 and 5 are bad and season 3 is kind of shitty too.

            Might as well want a new Spider-Man cartoon rather than a continuation of one you didn't like.

              For SMTAS, they could do a movie where he saves Mary Jane. They did some special radio play with the original VAs some time ago. Just animate it.

        >sixth season didn't air

        probably for the best. and i don't get why spider man would team up with ghost rider AND doctor strange too

          In the Ghost Rider's case, probably to make up for the fact that he got cucked out of a guest appearance because of UPN.

              Spider-Man aired on Fox.

              Fox imposed a lot of restrictions on Spider-Man, Morbius included.
              UPN called dibs on Ghost Rider for a cartoon and never did anything with him, preventing him from guest appearances in the Fox cartoons. This is also why they used Lizard instead of Hulk for the crossover; UPN was airing his cartoon.

      Proposed ideas for Season Six from back in the day...
      >Madame Web would have taken Spider-Man to 19th century London where he would have found Mary Jane who had amnesia. While in 19th century London, Spider-Man would have fought Carnage who was revealed to be Jack the Ripper.
      >Mysterio would have been revealed to be alive and in possession of the Time Dilation Accelerator. Mysterio would have used the Time Dilation Accelerator to rob banks. However, one of the portals would have accidentally taken Mysterio to the another dimension where he would have met Dormammu. Mysterio would have then become Dormammu’s new servant and would try to bring him into our world. Spider-Man would have then teamed up with Ghost Rider to defeat both Dormammu and Mysterio.
      >The villain Beetle might have appeared in an episode.
      >Norman Osborn would have returned from limbo and taken back the role of the Green Goblin from his son, Harry.
      >Richard Fisk would have returned as a masked criminal called the Rose and was going to frame the Daily Bugle reporter Ned Leeds.
      >Since James Cameron's Spider-Man film was canceled it is possible that Sandman would have appeared in season six.
      >Betty Brandt would have been introduced as Joe "Robbie" Robertson's assistant and she would have had a crush on Peter Parker. Character designs were created but she was never introduced. Her name was also spelled Betty Brandt instead of Betty Brant.
      (1/2)

      >An episode involving the villain Puma would have been made. According to online rumors a script involving Puma was actually written.
      >The Hulk might have also made a guest appearance in the series.
      >The villain, Jack O'Lantern might have appeared.
      >Miles Warren might have returned as the Jackal.
      >According to John Semper Jr. on his Spider-Man: TAS Facebook page he would have done an updated version of Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends as a more serious version. The episode would have guest starred Iceman and Firestar, and he would have tried to get Frank Welker and Kathy Garver to reprise their roles from Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends. According to John Semper Jr. at the end of the episode, after the villain was beat, Spider-Man, Iceman, and Firestar would have all looked at one another and said, "Hey, maybe we should all hang out together and be FRIENDS. Wouldn't that be AMAZING?" Then, after a short silence, they would all shake their heads and go, "Nahhhhhhhhh" and take off on their own separate ways.
      (2/2)

      You know Disney would make them do Spider-Verse. Even the Carnage the Ripper idea would be better than that

    Going to correct some shit as I worked on the show:

    1. Storm doesn't get depowered; we were told we couldn't do the storyline (cause you can't make a black character look weak). The decision to give her the mohawk was 100% done as an Easter egg, like using the Romita Magneto costume redesign.

    2. Madelyne Pryor and Xcutioner are also not in the show. From what I've been told via contacts with Hasbro, they stuck her and Xcutioner into the '97 toy line because the X-Men '97 toy line is going to be the default "X-Men" toy line going forward for Hasbro (the same way that apparently the retro-cards are the defacto Spider-Man line) and they had two figures they wanted to release but didn't have any room elsewhere to stick them in.

    3. Emma being a villain is something we fought HARD for. As in, it was one of the things that we held the line on in light of other compromises we were forced to make (like recasting Jubilee, only being allowed to show white men as anti-mutant bigots, and not being allowed to have Storm look weak at all).

    I'm afraid if they'll go for making everything CG and then rotoscoping poor 3D animation like Invincible.
    Those animators are afraid to draw, like half of the anime out today.

      conmsidering they are doing hybrid casting between LA and Toronto (and technically Vancouver cause Chris Britton and Adrian Hough are based there) this should be easy.
