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.

Click on the thumbnails for larger looks and look for more Spider-Man news soon here in The Continuum.

now for the pics:

I saw a commercial for this and I was confused. I may watch it if I remember.

His head is huge.

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

Wait, it says the first six images are of silver sable, talon, kraven, and kingpin. I don't see them.

*Anarchistguy* · 07-05-2003, 07:42 PM

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

Is the episode that airs Friday, July 11th at 10:30, the first episode of the series????

*cqb101* · 07-05-2003, 07:48 PM

The first episode airs at 10 I think.

*Mr. Snackpants* · 07-05-2003, 07:51 PM

oh, alright, gotcha.

*Jephael* · 07-05-2003, 08:11 PM

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.)

*cqb101* · 07-05-2003, 08:38 PM

Not a dress, a nitegown!

*Jephael* · 07-05-2003, 08:41 PM

Sorry, pal. You're referring to the bridge scene while I was referring to the parade scene from earlier in the movie.

My mistake...

*Brodie* · 07-05-2003, 10:28 PM

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.

*Stone Ill* · 07-06-2003, 04:31 AM

Will this air on MTV Canada?

And MJ is kinda dressed like April O'Neil..Red hair, purple belly top..

Shellfox · 07-06-2003, 06:38 AM

I can't wait to see the show just for the voice cast Micheal Clark Duncan and Rob Zombie, this will to say the least be interseting
