    I'll say. Compared to Ultimate Spider-Man, this is adult television. I've seen more mature things in Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (I got a three year old brother that always watches it On Demand) than in Ultimate Spider-Man. Sad, really as Mickey is supposed to be educational television.

    My kids liked Spectacular and they like Ultimate. Both shows are good.

    And Aunt May had a heart attack on the show as well, which is pretty hardcore material for a cartoon like that to deal with. And they had tons of clever innuendo that I have no clue how they even got in, hilarious stuff.

    I'll give you this one, because I totally agree.
    Animation: Ultimate Spider-Man
    The battle's in The Spectacular Spider-Man are so much better chereographed where The Ultimate Spider-Man takes on the 90's FOX cartoon animation.
    Dialogue: Ultimate Spider-Man
    I would like to see what you're referring to. I thought the Spectacular Spider-Man had great dialogue because of the banter between Spider-Man and his villains. Particularly with Black Cat, throwing out some sexual underlying line that kids wouldn't get but older ones would. In Ultimate Spider-Man, it just seems so heavily geared towards children that it's impossible to watch. I don't like the fourth wall breaks at all because those are things he could say out loud and fit Spider-Man's personality better. Not as good as they fit it in The Spectacular Spider-Man, but better.
    Voice Actors: Ultimate Spider-Man
    Besides JK Simmons, I don't really know who you are referring to. Most of the voice actors here have come from a failed Disney show (White Tiger and Nova both came from I'm in the Band). Drake Bell gives Spider-Man a far, far too silly voice to make him like Spider-Man. Josh Keaton brought real life to the role of Spider-Man, making it LIKE Peter Parker.
    Storylines: Ultimate Spider-Man
    I don't really understand this because Ultimate Spider-Man has no ongoing storylines and lacks continuity making it feel like everything that happens (besides the Venom episodes) have little to no meaning in Peter's life. Everything in The Spectacular Spider-Man that happened affected Peter Parker as an individual. This gave the show a better sense that every villain he ever fought was affecting him and was connected to him personally. Most of the stories have been pulled from critically acclaimed stories in the 616 titles.
    Villains: Ultimate Spider-Man
    As Batman is the figurehead of DC, Spider-Man is that of MARVEL. And the reason for that? Because they have the coolest villains of their respective universes. By this time in the Spectacular Spider-Man, we had Green Goblin, Sandman, Rhino, Shocker, The Enforcers, Doctor Octopus, Electro, Vulture, Lizard and Venom (I might be forgetting a few). Whereas, in Ultimate Spider-Man, we have no villain from Spider-Man's extensive rogues gallery besides a poorly portrayed Venom.
    Supporting Cast: Ultimate Spider-Man
    Again, I don't understand this. It's: superheroes with superficial depth and a Nick Fury that is geared incredibly towards kids, an MJ with no characterization (other than wanting to be a journalist), a Harry that is as superficial as the one in the Raimi films and an Aunt May that hardly appears vs MJ with great depth (wanting to be the party girl, the fun girl), Gwen (the smart girl that is absolutely portrayed as absolutely perfect for Peter), May (who always appears and is a mother figure), Connors (who actually has only one arm), his family (who we actually meet), Flash Thompson (who again has better depth than the one in USM), Kong, Gloria and Harry Osborn (who also gets more depth and takes his hate at his father's disappointment deeper and explains it better).
    Love Interest: The Spectacular Spider-Man
    Completely agreed.
    1/8 The Spectacular Spider-Man. 7/8 Ultimate Spider-Man.
    So, 7/8 The Spectacular Spider-Man. 1/8 Ultimate Spider-Man.

    I'm probably alone in not liking USM's art style. It looks really bland and safe. Very boring. All the faces are almost the same, and most designs are blatant cut-and-paste from the comics and movies. The only decent designs are the ones for Venom and Doctor Octopus.

    And the animation? I'm sorry, but I haven't seen anything that beats SSM's fight scenes, especially Symbiote Spidey vs. the Sinister Six, or the three-way crime lord fight, or ANY fight with the Green Goblin.

    Or any fight.
