TV Show Plot For Amazing Spider Man, The

The show is centered around the college student Peter Parker. In the first episode of The Amazing Super Man, Parker is bitten by a poisonous spider and acquires super powers. He decides to use his power to do good – first, he must stop a new age guru who is turning innocent people in to criminals through his astounding powers of mind control. Other episodes dealt with money grubbing politicians, nuclear waste, religious cults, and cloning.

While The Amazing Super Man had solid ratings throughout the duration of its two year run, fans of the comic book were highly critical of the series. This was largely due to the absence of any leading “supervillains.” Eventually, CBS ended the run of the series, after growing tired of developing a reputation for being the “superhero” station – they also had programs featuring characters like Wonder Woman and the Incredible Hawk going at the same time.
