The Spectacular Spider-Man (TV Series) Interactions (2008) User Reviews

Interactions in Spidey land.

[felicoorozco · 8/10 · 19 March 2019]

The second episode of Spectacular Spider-Man builds up a ton from the last one, developing more some of the threads that were part of the last episode and introducing some more.

This time around Electro is at the centerpiece and it provides some human emotion to the conflict between him and Spidey. You can't help to feel empathy for Electro as he was mainly a victim, and you understand where his reactions to his surroundings come from but the show makes ensures you also don't approve of his methods.

Again, the Spidey stuff is awesome. Well thought out, strategic battles showcasing the usual superb animation Spectacular Spider-Man offers and the way Peter's schoolife is handled is really likeable. Other plot lines are introduced to add to the bigger picture with a character called "Big Man".

That being said, the second part of this first arc of the show is both exciting, relateable, witty and really human just a tad bit rushed on the pacing.

8/10

The plot develops rapidly

The second episode is even cooler and more eventful than the first. The story of Electro is shown perfectly, the motivation of the villain is clear, you clearly cannot envy him. Meanwhile, Parker's personal life is even more interesting to watch; I like how Peter's superhero life intersects with his ordinary one and directly affects it. The life of a superhero is quite clearly divided into episodes, each with its own villain. And personal life develops gradually throughout the entire animated series. Thus, it is difficult to tear yourself away from watching it, because you want to know what will happen next.

A great new spin on electro

After the great pilot the shows quality continued to increase with this fun twist on electrons character. Instead of being a nerd with a gap in between his teeth or red skulls son (really?) he was electrician Max Dillon who wanted a cure for his transformation into spiders electrical villain. This episode did an interesting thing by introducing peters love interest Liz Allen who dismisses him at first but after Peter stands up to her she starts to respect him and later on she manages to hook up with him and we see that her mean personality comes from pier pressure. Now as for electro himself they did an incredible job with his character design changing it from the yellow booties and the mask to a cool electrical outfit. I also kinda felt bad for him as everything was working against him until he finally forced to be a villain. It also did a great job setting up curts turn into the lizard as electro electrified curts vile of lizard DNA. Really this episode checks all the marks as it gives us a new villain sets up a future episode and introduces a pivotal element of spideys high school life.
