The show followed the life of Peter Parker as [[Spider-Man]] (voiced by [[Christopher Daniel Barnes]]). After the death of his [[Ben Parker|Uncle Ben]] ([[Brian Keith]]), Peter struggles to balance his [[superhero]] life and personal life with his [[May Parker|Aunt May]] ([[Linda Gary]] and [[Julie Bennett]]), girlfriend [[Black Cat|Felicia Hardy]] ([[Jennifer Hale]]), eventual wife [[Mary Jane Watson]] ([[Sara Ballantine]]), and best friend [[Harry Osborn]] ([[Gary Imhoff]]). He fights classic villains such as [[Shocker]] ([[Jim Cummings]]), [[Kingpin]] ([[Roscoe Lee Browne]]), [[Vulture]] ([[Alan Johnson]] and [[Eddie Albert]]), and [[Doctor Octopus]] ([[Efrem Zimbalist Jr.]]) as well as then-recent characters such as [[Venom]] ([[Hank Azaria]]), [[Hobgoblin]] ([[Mark Hamill]]), and [[Carnage]] ([[Scott Cleverdon]]). He would team up with the [[Fantastic Four]], the [[X-Men]] (featuring the cast of {{xm}}), [[Nick Fury]] ([[Philip Abbott]]) and [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]], [[Prowler]] ([[Tim Russ]]), [[Captain America]] ([[David Hayter]]), [[War Machine]] ([[James Avery]]) and [[Iron Man]] ([[Robert Hays]], both reprising their roles from {{im}}). The show adapted stories including ''The Kid Who Collects Spider-Man'', ''[[Secret Wars]]'', and the controversial ''Clone Saga''. He even traveled to the "real world" to meet [[Stan Lee]] ([[Stan Lee (Real)|Himself]]).
Hulk wakes up on a space ship to hear {{C|Iron Man|ph}} of the {{C|Illuminati|ph}} explain that he is a danger to all those around him and they are sending him to a distant planet to be alone.

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]].
The jade giant tries to attack Red King but his bodyguard {{C|Caiera|ph}} protects him. The two fight but Hulk is forced into submission. At Laven's funeral, the group decide to become {{C|Warbound|ph}} and stick together. Hiroim explains that he was a {{C|Shadow Priesthood|ph|Shadow Priest}} but disagreed that Red King was a hero during the {{C|Spike Wars|ph}}. Korg explains that he and his brothers attacked {{C|Earth|ph}} but were driven away by {{C|Thor|ph}} and {{C|Beta Ray Bill|ph}}. Their next fight is against the {{C|Wildebot|ph}}s and the {{C|Eggbreaker|ph}}, which are again easily destroyed by Hulk. Hulk is damaged and Hiroim notices a plant growing from his blood, part of the Sakaarson prophecy. That night Caiera tries to make a deal with Hulk, who is gaining favor from the people away from Red King. She wants the Warbound to escape with their lives but remain fugitives, but Hulk refuses. She explains that the {{C|Spikes|ph}} devastated their world before then Red Prince and his {{C|Death's Head Guard|ph}}s stopped them saving the planet while rescuing her.

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]]. A similar story was used in the video game ''Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions'', the comic story ''Spider-Verse'', and Oscar-winning film {{smitsv}}.
The Warbound's final fight is against the captured Beta Ray Bill. He easily overpowers the others, but Hulk quickly overwhelms and nearly kills the hero from {{C|Asgard|ph}}. Red King offers them their freedom if they kill Elloe, who tried to escape. They refuse and Red King tries to have them killed. Beta Ray Bill recovers and uses {{C|Stormbreaker|ph}} to free all the slaves and gladiators on the planet. The Warbound seek refuge in {{C|An-Sara|ph}} while Hulk goes out on his own. Caiera confronts Hulk while the Warbound are betrayed. However, the return of the Spikes forces them to band together. Caiera, Hulk, and the Warbound fight bravely. Unfortunately, Red King reveals that he created the Spikes to attain power and drops a bomb destroying all life in the city. Caiera lives thanks to her Oldstrong powers and the Warbound hid in a cave saving as many civilians as they could. Caiera brings the Warbound and Hulk's body to the capitol to be on display. However, Hulk is alive and fights Red King with Caiera at his side. They infect him with a Spike so that he is killed by his own guards. Hulk and Caiera start a romantic relationship as saviors and rulers of Sakaar.
 
 
Overall, critics felt that ''Planet Hulk'' was one of the best animated features from Marvel. They praised the intense action and beautiful scenery. They pointed out how this Hulk is unlike anything audiences have seen before. Critics pointed out the excellent voice acting and soundtrack, and enjoyed how well the long story was adapted given the time limitations. Though it is generally noted that the movie does not contain quite the rich pathos that the comic series had. Criticisms are usually pointed towards poor video quality on the DVD and special features that don't have anything to do with the movie.

Spider-Man TAS Characters Legacy

Spider-Man is a series that ran starting starting November 19, 1994 and ending January 31, 1998. It is the fourth to focus on the wallcrawler after Spider-Man, Spider-Man, and Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends. It is the second longest running series based on a Marvel Comics property after only X-Men, which exists in the same continuity.

The show followed the life of Peter Parker as Spider-Man (voiced by Christopher Daniel Barnes). After the death of his Uncle Ben (Brian Keith), Peter struggles to balance his superhero life and personal life with his Aunt May (Linda Gary and Julie Bennett), girlfriend Felicia Hardy (Jennifer Hale), eventual wife Mary Jane Watson (Sara Ballantine), and best friend Harry Osborn (Gary Imhoff). He fights classic villains such as Shocker (Jim Cummings), Kingpin (Roscoe Lee Browne), Vulture (Alan Johnson and Eddie Albert), and Doctor Octopus (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) as well as then-recent characters such as Venom (Hank Azaria), Hobgoblin (Mark Hamill), and Carnage (Scott Cleverdon). He would team up with the Fantastic Four, the X-Men (featuring the cast of X-Men), Nick Fury (Philip Abbott) and S.H.I.E.L.D., Prowler (Tim Russ), Captain America (David Hayter), War Machine (James Avery) and Iron Man (Robert Hays, both reprising their roles from Iron Man). The show adapted stories including The Kid Who Collects Spider-Man, Secret Wars, and the controversial Clone Saga. He even traveled to the "real world" to meet Stan Lee (Himself).

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.

The show as a hit in the ratings. The episode "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 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 "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 himself. A similar story was used in the video game Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, the comic story Spider-Verse, and Oscar-winning film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
