Growing up in the 1990s, superhero fans were spoiled by some of the best superhero animated adaptations of all time. Marvel was producing shows like Spider-Man and X-Men: The Animated Series, while DC was establishing the DCAU, running from Batman: The Animated Series to Justice League Unlimited. Years earlier (and with some notable exceptions during that period), superhero shows just weren’t produced with the same quality.And what may have been a groundbreaking animated series at the time did not age well, whether it was due to the lack of complexity in the stories, the animation quality, or the sheer fact that future adaptations presented better versions of Spider-Man, the Avengers, Batman and more. These retro superhero cartoons are pretty much unwatchable for their own reasons, and should sit very low on to-watch lists.As a show, it’s definitely a product of its time. The version of Spider-Man is actually enjoyable to watch, and quippy, but the animation is incredibly dated and the solutions Spidey uses to stop his villains are wacky and odd, such as learning ventriloquism to trick his foes. Fans should definitely watch almost any other Spider-Man cartoon.
