Spider-Man - The Spider Slayer

Spidey Saturday takes us back to the 90s. The second episode of Marvel’s Spider-Man begins to flesh-out the cast of supporting and recurring characters including Norman Osborne (Neil Ross), and his silent partner the Kingpin (Roscoe Lee Browne), who hire Spencer Smythe (Edward Mulhare) and his son Alistair (Maxwell Caulfield) to build him technology to kill Spider-Man (Christopher Daniel Barnes). First, we see the Spider Seekers capable of tracking Spider-Man, and later we see Smythe’s more deadly creation, the Black Widow, in action.

Many of the classic character beats can already be found here with Peter always struggling to make ends meet earning what he can by selling photos to J. Jonah Jameson (Edward Asner) and The Daily Bugle, balancing his life as both Peter and Spider-Man, and always feeling guilty about not being able to do more for Aunt May (Linda Gary).
