Is that the same Spider-Man show that's on MTV? The one with Neil Patrick Harris (Doogie Howser) voicing Spidey?

Yes it is the same one. And I like that change better too. It's like a DB marathon. ^_^

I hated that show. Possibly the worst Spidey cartoon ever. Even worse than Spiderman Unlimited.

Really? I only saw a couple of episodes when I was in the US, but it seemed pretty good to me. An intelligently written MTV show...imagine that.

I really liked the CG cartoon ;_;. I had issues with the seemingly low-quality CG, at first, but it really grew on me. I thought they did some really neat stuff in the show. Not to mention James Marsters did a villain's voice in one episode.

But geeze, it looks like YTV is all DB, all the time.

He was some Russian villian dude in one episode. I don't remember his name. ;_;

If the damn show wasnt so MTV-ified I would've enjoyed it better. But the cartoon totaly distorted the characters of Mary Jane and Harry. Whenever a new Spiderman property is launched, MJ's character is totaly flipped around and nobody seems to get it right. Harry's character was way too sure of himself, wich is the total opposite of him considering he dies of a drug overdose. And since when is Harry a blonde? He has always been a redhead/brunette, they never really decide on the exact shade.I also could not stand that new girl they introduced. Anyway, If it werent on MTV, I mightve liked it better.

And James Marsters played a character called Sergei in the Mind Games two parter.

I know, I'm a comic book nerd. I have to be exact.

I can't see how someone being sure of themselves means that they can't die of a drug overdose.

And Harry (and Norman)'s hair has always been weird. Seriously, what on earth is that style suppossed to mean? And does it matter that they've changed his hair colour? Does it affect the stories in any way at all?

I'd be very sure of myself too, if I had hair with freaky red horizontal lines going through it lol

How can they have it on over and over again? As far as I know, they're not showing any more new episodes of Spider-man, and aren't doing another season... I think there's like, less than 20 episodes...
Battle High 2, starring Kyle Hebert as well as myself, has been released on Xbox 360, OUYA, PC, Linux, Mac, and Xbox One!

There's actually only 13 episodes, one season, and the show hasnt been renewed for more. As for Harry's hair, I've always referred to it as dreadlocks of some sort, but who knows. I told you, I'm a comic book finatic, everything has to be exact.

If everything has to be exact, then you must hate every single cartoon series Marvel and DC have ever put out, as well as all the Batman, Superman, X-Men, and Spider-Man films too.

I don't think it's dreadlocks, because Norman has the same style, and I really can't see him having dreadlocks.

I just joke around with my friends calling them dreads. I honestly have no idea what the hell kindve hairstyle he has.

Anyway, I dont exactly hate them, I can just point out how they messed up their source material. Thats the main thing that bugged me about the Spiderman cartoon, it just didnt feel like a Spiderman cartoon. It was like MTV made their versions of the characters.

I'm probably the only person in the world that disliked X-2.
