Finally! Yes, finally. At long last, the panel has completed their discussions on the first season of “The Spectacular Spider-Man”. We discuss Venom, Gwen Stacy, as well as a look back on the first season of the show and the podcast up until this point. But we’re far from done. If you thought we were going away, you were wrong. “Final Curtain” or bust!
We are joined this month by Ben Diskin, the voice of Venom, alongside Greg Weisman. We discuss adapting Venom, as well as Gwen Stacy, not to mention Ben’s start in the industry and his affection for Venom. We bring the premiere season to a close in a podcast you won’t want to miss.
The Gang of Zach, Greg, & Gerard are joined by Jesse Betteridge (Owner/Creator of the Keep Spectacular Spider-Man Alive Facebook group) to debate the penultimate episode of the first season… and we do mean debate, there are some strong opinions on this one on both sides. They also discuss the show’s cancelation, why a third season is all but impossible, the rumored Mary Jane Watson (At the time) casting in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Plus a new opening for season 2 of the Podcast. And whatever happened to Jesse Garrett!? All this and More!
Alongside Greg Weisman, we welcome the Spectacular Spider-Man himself, Josh Keaton! Together, we all delve into the penultimate episode of the first season where we explore Spider-Man’s origin, Uncle Ben, and everything else that makes Peter Parker tick. We also discuss Josh’s other gigs whereupon he brought the web-slinger to life, particularly in the realm of video games “Shattered Dimensions” and “Edge of Time”, where Josh worked with previous Spider-Men such as Christopher Daniel Barnes. Seriously, you do not want to miss this one. And let us also take a moment to remember Josh Keaton’s Spectacular Spider-Car.
Greg, Zach, and Gerard engage in some group therapy. And boy do they need it.
Join Greg and Kristin as they welcome back Greg Weisman and welcome series writer, Andrew Robinson, onto the podcast for the first time where they discuss horrible first dates, balancing six villains, the difference (or lack thereof) between Sinister and Insidious, lots of impaling, and a whole lot more.
Zach is back with a new episode with the usual gang of suspects as they tackle 4 books. These were published over two months (June and July) 1996. With this episode, we are caught up on the core books through July. Amazing Spider-Man 413Spider-Man 70Spectacular Spider-Man 235-236Highlights include a discussion of the toys from that era, The beginning of the best run on the Spider-Man title with John Romita Jr and Howard Mackie, a discussion of who the Dragon Man is, and much much more! So Join Zach, Gerard, Greg, and Donovan as they talk about these books! And Bonus:…
Greg, Zach, and Gerard are back to discuss the tenth episode of the series; Chameleon, George Stacy, and more… such as where they were when “Day of the Chameleon” aired back in the 90’s, and other tangents which are both juvenile, charming, and which Greg was too amused by to cut from the podcast. Enjoy!
