Kraven The Hunter The Movie The Review + Sonyverse Rankings
That 90s Spider-Man Show
“This is the Kraven juice, it’ll make you into Kraven” “We prayed for the Dark Universe to die but the monkey’s paw curled and we got this instead” It's finally come... The Year of Kraven has lasted longer than 365 days and featured very little Kraven, but now we have come together to review his cinematic debut. Is it terrible? You bet. But HOW is it terrible? That's the real question. We are joined this week by Gene Aversa to talk about what went wrong with the Kraven movie and the demise of the Sony Expanded Universe. We also rank the Sonyverse movies, from 'what are...

The Human Fly & Stegron the Dinosaur Man (Weird Lore #14)
That 90s Spider-Man Show
Oh so you thought we were done with weird lore bs corner, huh? Done with obscure animal-themed villains? Not a chance. "This is much closer to Leprechaun In The Hood than I thought it was gonna be" This week Jack introduces Henry to creations that are rumoured to appear in the next Spider-Verse movie. One is the dinosaur man known as Stegron, a one-track scientific mind who is a sucker for a nap. The other is The Human Fly, JJ's most embarrassing project who only becomes more disgusting over time. We speedran this recording to make way for a much-requested and dreaded episode on a...

That 90s Spider-Man Show
“So undercooked I think I got salmonella from watching” Season 4 Episode 8 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “The Return of the Green Goblin” An iconic villain returns. Yes, that's right. Aunt Anna is back and she's enlisting help from gun-totting strangers she meets in cemeteries to take down Peter Parker once and for all. Also, the Green Goblin is here. Comic Origins: Jack gives an overview on Harry Osborn's descent into goblin madness, what adaptations have worked, and gives some story recommendations. A podcast for no one. If we get anything wrong, a wizard did...

X-MEN '97: An X-Tremely Late Review
That 90s Spider-Man Show
X-Men '97 continued the story from X-Men: The Animated Series, which is like the slightly cooler older sibling of our primary focus on this podcast. So of course we were going to talk about it when they brought it back to life. It wasn't really gone, just having an intergalactic romance with space royalty elsewhere. We, however, are a little late to the homecoming. Jack watched it as it came out, while Henry was a late bloomer catching up this year. Together, we are too disorganised to regularly release episodes. Like an X-Men team run by two Morphs. This episode we talk about every...

S4E7 - Got Morb?
That 90s Spider-Man Show
"It's a 500 Days of Blade situation" Season 4 Episode 7 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “The Vampire Queen” Part two of our vampire caper means that's (hopefully) a season wrap on Morbius. But before he attempts to make it big in a cancelled pilot spin-off, he's teaming up with the gang to take down a new hypnotic vampire on the scene: Blade's mum! Some comic book origins this week: Jack gives us a little backstory for Vanessa Brooks before diving into Debra Whitman's comic counterpart: a tale of gaslighting, psychotic episodes, and a few reasons to not date Peter Parker. A...

Extra: Complaining about RDJ being cast as Doom
That 90s Spider-Man Show
Extra cut convo from our recent episode for being too darn long a tangent. Finally... we can get Victor Von Doom, the romani man who used science and sorcery to become Marvel's greatest villain put to page, can be done right. OR we could cast Robert Downey Jr, because that is the safest ($80 million) bet. The big news from Marvel out of SDCC this year was that RDJ has been cast as ol' Doom. Well, we don't like it! We have plenty of reasons to be sceptical, so maybe skip this one if you don't want to hear two guys get pedantic about your favourite actor being cast. Maybe people who like...

"We regret to inform that you it is indeed Morbin' time once again" Season 4 Episode 6 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “The Awakening” Oh, it's good to be back!

S4E5 - Three Men and a Boss Baby
That 90s Spider-Man Show
“And then Spider-Man took Scorpion to the diaper factory” Season 4 Episode 5 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “Partners” After a break between episodes due to some non-neogenic life events, Henry and Jack are back to talk about maybe the most outrageous episode of the show so far. We've got some spider-creepin', cyborg humilation, and the one and only Crime Boss Baby: Silvermane. As well as investigating the science of baby geniuses and armchair therapising Alisa and Alistair, we get waylaid by the true titular partners of the episode, the neogenic odd couple AKA a...

Comic Book Adaptations: How Faithful Should They Be?
That 90s Spider-Man Show
This episode Jack is joined by Diego Crespo + Gene Aversa from The Waffle Press to talk about our favourite comic book adaptations and ask the big questions: what makes a good comic adaptation? How faithful should they be to the source material? Can we survive this conversation without talking about the current Spider-Man comics? … Continue reading Comic Book Adaptations: How Faithful Should They Be? →
info_outlineSeason 4 Episode 4 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “The Return of Kraven”
The third entry in the loose trilogy of Kraven appearances is here to be side-tracked by conversations about racism and Bananaman. But back to the episode, we’ve got a mysterious creature on the loose and a hunt through the jungles of New York to find it. What is this, season 1?
Kraven has returned, again, somehow. No comic backstory this time and to Jack’s surprise no voodoo either. But don’t worry, that just means we’ve got one in the chamber for Weird Lore BS Corner… once we silence those darn bongos…
A podcast for no one. If we get anything wrong, a wizard did it.
