Hey everyone!

Here's some info and pics of the new Spider-Man cartoon that will air on MTV next week.

(Sorry if this is been posted before)

Spider-Man will fight a new, made-for-television villain during the premiere night of MTV's Spider-Man animated series.

"Sword of Shikata" will air on Friday, July 11 at 10:30 p.m. as the night's second episode. It features the voice of Gina Gershon of Shikata, a warrior with a deep sense of honor who is hired by mogul Richard Damien to capture Spider-Man.

The episode, previewed to the press, shows an edgier side of Spider-Man than in previous animated versions. Shikata uses her sword to draw blood and decapicitate, and Spider-Man uses words like "damn" and "hell."

Other voices include John C. McGinley as Richard Damien, Clancy Brown as Damien's thug and Ed Asner as Officer Barr.

"Sword of Shikata" was written by Morgan Gendel and Todd Felderstein and directed by Brandon Vietti.

Below are images from "Sword of Shikata." The first six images are from the show's opening theme, giving viewers a first look at J. Jonah Jameson, Silver Sable, Kingpin, Kraven the Hunter and Talon.

now for the pics:

The art style reminds me of Bagley's run on Ultimate Spider-man. Makes me wish I got MTV :(

That's because I picked the images at random. Sorry

I hope it's as good as X-Men Evolution.

I certainly hope it WON'T be like X-Men Evolution

Those pics are so awesome! I especially like the one of Spider-Man about to save Mary Jane, because it looks like they took it right out of a scene from the movie (except she was wearing a dress in that one.)

This looks brilliant. I love how they animate his eyes so it doesn't look so blank, he can show expression, a lot more than Tobey McGuire ever will.
