Spider-Man swings into animated action in The Spectacular Spider-Man, the acclaimed 26-episode series starring the classic Marvel Super-Hero. Greg Weisman (Gargoyles, The Batman) was supervising producer of the fan-favorite series, with Victor Cook as producer/supervising director.

The Spectacular Spider-Man picks up the original web-slinger's mythology at the beginning of his hero's journey - as a not-so-typical 16-year-old entering his junior year of high school. Having spent the summer engaging common criminals with his new-found powers, Peter Parker must conceal his secret identity while engaging a new level of terror - the multi-leveled pressures of teenage life at home and school while combating bigger, badder super-villains in the real world.

"Our goal is to reinterpret these great characters and concepts for our millennium," Weisman said. "We'll have plenty of resonant material for the Spider-Man fan, while engaging the Spider-Man novice with the same thrills we experienced when we were first exposed to the character. Our stories will appeal on multiple levels with plenty of eye-candy, action, humor and colorful characters for the youngest demographic balanced with extensive character development for 'tweens, teens and adults."

The Spectacular Spider-Man, produced by Marvel Entertainment and Culver Entertainment, currently airs across worldwide markets and is readily available on physical and digital home media.
