The Japanese Spiderman
I stumbled into something incredible in the realm of 70's TV programs. Turns out that the Japanese wanted a cut into the ever popular character of Spiderman from Marvel Comics. HOWEVER, they seem to fuse too many comic characters together, so much so that those who know Spiderman would find this Japanese version ludicrous.
-------
It is a fusion of the Ghost Rider's origin, Spiderman's costume and abilities, the cartoon Speed Racer and Transformers rolled into one. What were the Japanese thinking?
-------
On the upside, this site has a full list of 70's 80's and 90's TV programs along with other stuff from that retro-era. It is really memorable to see the opening intro to Laverne and Shirley, Petticoat Junction and even Land of the Giants. I will place a link on the side bar. It is worth a look if you would like to see what you've missed during all those times you were sent to bed before 9pm.
