Spiderman and his Amazing Friends.

I recently bought all three seasons of Spiderman and his Amazing Friends. It had been years since I had seen this show and was a happy to find that I still enjoy it. Perhaps the plots are not great compared to today's Marvel shows but it is a nice innocent cartoon.
Are there any other fans around?

I remember that show. I kinda remember it being quite good, but it is a long time since I have seen it.

I remember that's where I learned about Iceman & Firestar, who were his roomates.

I had heard of it.What year did it come out?

It started around 1978, as I recall.

I started to pay attention to voice actors in the 1980's, as I realized the actor who did Spider Man, would go on to do Bumblebee on Transformers.

If you enjoy cartoons from that era I suggest you you look out for it.

I would definitely count myself among the fans of this series.

I pretty much grew up on this and Super Friends, which heavily influenced my comic book habits.

I was a huge fan of this show when I was growing up. I always wanted to be a fourth member of their team. 🙂

I love this show, I grew up on late re-runs of it, but the place I was at during my childhood treated it like something new, haha. I miss this show so goddamn much.

Yeah, me too. I also really love the Spider-Man cartoons from the late sixties and early seventies.
