    its because spider venom is meant to give a spider's victim super powers. and that was amplified a millions time by it being a slightly radioactive spider.

    Ah, I see. Wiki also says he did Kim Possible, which is probably even more reminiscent of this show's eye style.

    Maaan, I wish the original Spiderman animated series would just come out on DvD already...

    That shit was ace. First thing in the morning, channel 57. 7 am, watch spider man and eat a bowl of cereal before school, every day in middle school. So awesome.

    h-he... he doesn't shoot silk from his hands, or anything. He has webshooters attached to his wrist filled with a solution. Hence the famous middle/ring finger to the palm gesture, he's pushing the trigger on his web shooter, which sometimes runs out or malfunctions. Granted that doesn't make a whole lot more sense but it helps.

    and when he was all depressed and stuff he suffered from erectile dysfunction of the wrist and couldn't shoot silk

    Ah I forget about the movie, which is the exception. The show this thread is about uses webshooters along with most all other version of spider-man save for the movie.

    Only in the last few years of comics and in the movies does he have the organic webs.
    Most versions have him build the web-shooters.
    Also, it was a goddamn radioactive spider.
    Everything back then was caused by radiation.
    Next you're gonna be like "THE HULK SHOULDN'T BE THE HULK HE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN CANCER OR DIED FROM THAT" and shut the hell up.

    I'm a big fan of Stephen Silver's work. And Gabe has said on numerous occasions that Silver's work has been a big influence on his style.


    But anyway, someone else said that it's some guy named Sean "Cheeks" Galloway who did the new Spider-Man cartoon character designs.
