Spectacular Spiderman getting a full series blu-ray set in Aprl
 
Rejoice, everyone! All 26 episodes of Spectacular Spiderman are coming to one blu-ray set in April before Amazing Spiderman 2.

Now if only Sony would release a complete set of X-men: Evolution as well before the new X-men movie comes out.

Considering how horrible current Marvel cartoons are, we really need to support the GOOD Marvel cartoons when they come out like Spectacular Spiderman...and hopefully we'll get to see X-men Evolution get a full series set too which was critically underrated X-men cartoon and pretty damn good. And then maybe another Avengers: EMH set after that.

Fantastic news. One of the few Spidey cartoons not to outright suck with writing that handles the character with precision care. I'd kill for a continuation comic at some point, I really want to see the culmination of the five-year plan they had for this.

It's also a shame the unofficial Spidey/Gargoyles crossover play the casts of both shows performed at conventions won't be included

Hooray!

Now if only the 90s Spider-man animated series can get on Blu-Ray, then it's are all good to go.

Man I'm hoping X-men Evolution gets a full release on DVD or blu-ray because of the new movie. The last season of Evo was never released to DVD if I remember correctly.

X-men Evolution was severely underrated because all the kids who grew up with 90's X-men basically trashed all over it. It did have a shaky first season but it improved tremendously as the show continued.

Leo656 02-24-2014 03:10 PM

I want the 90s show. I'm not as excited about other Spidey shows, although they're fine. Not what I grew up with, though.

Ninjinister 02-24-2014 03:25 PM

I guess this'd be a good opportunity to watch that entire second season that I didn't even know aired until it was over.

LeotheLateBloomer 02-24-2014 03:25 PM

Hey, Wolverine and the X-Men is a really good show as well. I'd recommend it.

But as someone who is watching this show for the first time on CW's Saturday morning block, Vortexx, I'm actually enjoying it. Josh Keaton is a really good Spidey/Peter Parker, something I think the other incarnations are lacking in.

I'm getting this ish.

And Spider-Man has a hyphen.

At some point, I needed money, and I decided to sell my DVDs for the simple fact that the whole series ended on a cliffhanger. I'm rather tempted to get this, although I probably won't. Anyway I'm glad it's getting the Blu-ray treatment, as well as getting released as a complete series set for those who want it.

As for X-Men: Evolution, I've been contemplating getting the final season from Vudu. I've taped the whole season, and I'd like to copy them to recordable DVDs, but a digital format would be better. DVD or Blu-ray, however, would be EXCELLENT.

I gotta get me this set, I loved Spectacular Spider-Man and the art style is from one of my favorite artists.

NinjaPug 02-24-2014 05:42 PM

Yep, this is a definite purchase for me.

Quite a welcome surprise. I'd love it if Avengers:EMH got the same treatment.

blindturtle02 02-24-2014 06:22 PM

Nice! Yes, gotta support these good Marvel toons! I really wish they'd bring this show back the way Family Guy got brought back. Ah well. Yeah, I'd also love to see X-Men Evolution get a complete boxset release. And the 90's Spidy wouldn't hurt. Yep, buying this one for sure. Spectacular Spider-Man ruled when it aired and it still does imho. I just hope if/when X-Men Evolution gets released by whichever DVD distributer, they give usU.S. PAL format or however the heck that works. Allot of those 90's X-Men eps on DVD were tough for me to get into because it sounded as if the characters were sucking a little helium. haha Yes, I bought them all again via amazon instant video because I was that picky. But I'm sure Spectacular Spider-Man and other future Marvel releases will get a better treatment. Looking forward to picking this one up. It was a great series and it got canceled too soon!

just hope this comes to the UK

ToTheNines 02-25-2014 02:12 PM

I smiled so hard that it hurt when I saw this news on IGN.

CyberCubed 02-25-2014 02:13 PM

It is too bad the show can never be revived. After Ultimate Spiderman ends they'll likely do another reboot.

Apparently there were plans to end Ultimate Spidey and replace it with a new cartoon a while back, not sure if those plans have changed or not yet.

They better get on it.

CyberCubed 02-25-2014 09:35 PM

Ultimate has only been renewed for Season 3, right? So after 78 episodes it should be done.

Yeah, let's hope. I hate to be negative but Ultimate just ain't my cup'a tea. Watched the entire first season and liked the Goblin and Venom eps but other than that, not so much. Spectacular was awesome all around.

I remember when the show was airing that the DVD versions would include extra footage and "directors" cut versions of episodes and then the DVDs were cancelled...So whatever happened with that? Did those versions ever exist?

Do people actually care about physical media anymore? I would've been excited years ago but now I prefer knowing I can watch it anytime on Netflix, sure the rights might expire one day but I think it's obvious it'll be available in one way or another through other means not to mention always through piracy.
