While fans breathlessly await the fate of the computer-animated New Adventures of Spider-Man (it remains in limbo after being dropped by MTV in 2003), they can enjoy three episodes of its first season on this disc (culled from the 13-episode two-disc set, which is a better choice for completists). Mainframe Entertainment (which created the cult Saturday morning series ReBoot) and writer/executive producer Brian Michael Bendis (the Ultimate Spider-Man comic) give the venerable story a spin by placing Peter Parker (voiced by Neil Patrick Harris) in college alongside pal Harry Osborn (Ian Ziering) and longtime crush Mary Jane Watson (singer Lisa Loeb). As usual, Parker/Spidey must conceal his secret identity while wrangling a host of foes, which are a mix of ones drawn from the comic book and brand new enemies. Spider-Man fans seem firmly divided into "for" and "against" camps over the animation, which beautifully captures Spidey's web-slinging, but often looks awkward when depicting everyday movement. --Paul Gaita

Rating : - Great Concept but....
Hello friends,

Huge fan of Spidey when I was a kid. And now I bought the DVD for my kid son.
I am impressed with the animation and the action in the cartoons of the DVD.
The reasons why I did not give it 5 stars is because:

The cartoon is not made for kids. I was shocked to hear offensive words like "Hell" and "Cra*".
What are we teaching our children, that it is ok for them to speak like that since their heroes are saying that?

What happened to the classical good vs. evil cartoons.

Thanks,
Nawaf
