    Default X-Men in Spiderman and his Amazing Friends

    In the 80's cartoon series there was a character called Videoman who first turned up as a villian and then in the second series there was a Heroic version who was sent to Xavier for training at the end of the show 'Education of a Superhero' Details here: http://www.spider-friends.com/Episodes/EpGuide.html Apprently this was going to tie into an X-Men cartoon series that never happened. More details here: http://spiderman-web.com/spiderman/t.../education.htm

    Videoman never translated into the comics (as far as I know!) but I was wondering what sort of powers a character like this would have if introduced today?

    I guess his powers were like those of the Living Lightning, once a member of the West Coast Avengers.

    I prefer Betaman of vhs.


    Anyway Spiderman and his Amazing friends was a blight upon everything good in this world....


    Although i think the Aussie Accent they gave wolverine is the reason they hired Jackman for the role

    chew on that for a moment

    I caught an episode this weekend. They gave Iceman a kid sister named Light Bird or something like that. She sould turn into living light. Well, good for her.

    She also saved Ice Man after he was thrown into outer space for a minute and a half. Uh-huh. Sure she did.

    Hey the SpiderFriends Rule! :D

    Pryde of the X-Men, another awesome show, gave Wolverine an Aussie accent.

    *chewing*Jackman is good for the role.


    to get on topic
    Videoman, if introduced now might have some computer/internet related powers, in addition to his game & transformation powers

    Lightwave's his sister. She was controlled by an evil Shield agent in the episode & gained selfcontrol after Iceman was in danger :D

    yup, that was the episode I watched. I just take issue with Iceman existing in outer space. Sure he could...oh well, it's just a cartoon.

    I always thought Swarm from that show was the coolest super-villian EVA'!

    Heheheh...Spider-man and his Amazing Friends is what got me into comics...seriously. :D

    Sure, it was cheesy as hell, but it's a pretty old cartoon, and I really liked it!

    Although I thought Swarm was just created for the television series, Swarm is also a real comic book character first appearing in Champions #14-15:

    I remember seeing the Swarm on one of the 4 Spidey titles during the clone saga (I think it was Ben Reilly wearing the webs during that period)... It was one of those few times wherein the storylines were contained only in their respective titles and didn't tie into the others...

    Hey you're not alone. I love the show. I wanted to date Firestar (or Aunt May ;) ), & hang out with Spidey & the Iceman. I wanted the team to be in comics together, but they were only in one as a team...I think it was a 711 giveaway.

    Why did the cartoon forget to draw Spidey with muscles? ;)
    You should be good because in hell there is only customer service positions to be filled, and in heaven, you get to make the calls.
