| − | The series came about when Marvel Comics was facing financial problems. [[Avi Arad]] started [[Marvel Films Animation]] to bring characters to animation and hired [[John Semper, Jr.]] to be story editor after a previous editor failed to work out. The two clashed on the direction of the show, but Semper won after arguing that a quality show would sell toys anyways. Semper had great freedom when it came to guest stars and included characters such as [[Punisher]] (John Beck), [[Blade]] ([[James Donald Hall]]), [[Doctor Strange]] ([[John Vernon]]), and [[Madame Web]] ([[Joan Lee]]). He used season long story arcs, against direct orders since that was something not being done in a children's show. Despite being top in the ratings, the show was eventually cancelled because of a disagreement between Arad and head of [[Fox Kids]] [[Margaret Loesch]]. |

| + | Arriving in America, Tony and Rhodey are confronted by S.H.I.E.L.D., who think they ran guns to the Jade Dragons. Tony thinks his father sold them out to protect the company. The two escape and sneak into Stark Tower with Pepper's help. They enter a secret vault where Tony reveals that he built dozens of armors. Tony dons an armor and sets off to stop the prophecy. He enters an underwater temple in the Atlantic Ocean confronting the Demon Elementals but he is beaten. When he returns, Tony confronts his father blaming him for the guns. Howard claims he was just protecting Rhodey but Tony points out their rocky relationship since the death of his mother. |

| − | The show as a hit in the ratings. The episode {{eps|Day of the Chameleon}} won an Annie Award for Best Individual Achievement for Writing in the Field of Animation. The series won a NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Animated/Live Action/Dramatic Youth or Children's Series/Special. The show had a major impact on the comics and subsequent adaptations, most notably with the [[Venom Symbiote]]. Before, the symbiote just gave Spider-Man unlimited [[Web Fluid|webbing]]. Afterwards the comics, films, and other series included the aspect that the symbiote increased his aggressive side. In fact, the film ''Spider-Man 3'' included a recreated shot from {{eps|The Alien Costume, Part One}}. Other aspects include making [[Green Goblin]] an alternate personality to [[Norman Osborn]] who actually communicates with and demeans his other self. Additionally, the series finale featured a story of Spider-Man traveling to an alternate universe to team up with several other [[Spider-Men]] to stop an evil version of [[Spider-Carnage|himself]]. The video game ''Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions'' featured a similar story as well as the comics' ''Spider-Verse'' story. Much of the cast and crew came together again to make the animated series ''War of the Rocketmen''. |
