This is what a "nerd" looked like back in the 90s
you realize that he had superpowers right
>>222771854spider roids, not natty
>>222771854the spider bite literally gave Peter a roidmaxx body
>>222771854
>>222771854The whole point of Peter is that he's the kind of guy who's a 7/10 on a good day, and a 10/10 when he's in his element
>>222771901they took this from you
>>222771963a man in a wig?
>>222771901Kino
SHHOOOKKKEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>>222771854Still is
>>222771854He is hopped up on neogenics
>>222771963Anmiators used to be horny men. It was very obvious even as a kid.
>>222771854It was the 90s. Everybody was ripped as fuck in comics
>>222771854Is he supplementing with creatine?
>>222772038YOU CANT ESCAPE MEEEE
>>222771901Based
>MARY JANE? MARY JAAANE? AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
>>222771854They basically took spiderman as he appeared in the comic strips in the newspaper and made a cartoon of him. He looked like he played football. To make him seem physically inadequate and nerdy they made Mary Jane's bfs even ludicrously bigger. I grew up with this spiderman which is why I had a hard time relating to skinny manlets like Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland. It wasn't just that. They never seemed smart enough or serious enough to be spiderman because of that TAS. He was the template and they filled the role in the live action films with clowns.
>>222772501TAS almost has noir like narration from Spiderman. For a cartoon, it's pretty hardboiled.The movies have to cut that out and you have to read the actors, which is why they LOVE to take off their masks.
>>222772043I feel like the Spiderman movies really missed the boat. Neogenics. Its not natural mutants like the xmen, its not intergalactic world destroying threats like avengers, its man made mutants. Stay in your lane Spiderman. You fight people dabbling in gene tech. The animated series understood this. Everyone was some sort of man made monster.
>>222771854He was a nerd because of his shitty fucking polo, not because of his physique.
>>222772080I'm pretty sure cartoons gave me a fetish for blonde bimbos and fake tits.
>>222771854Peter was never unattractive and he was only a dork in high school. Once he was in college he was a turbo Chad who was only held back romantically by being Spider-Man. Even in high school he was and shy, he would just go ask the prettiest girl in school to go to the microscope Museum or something stupid like that. He wasn't an awkward ugly dork until Tobey Maguire
>>222772581Pic rel the best era of Spider-Man
>>222772501>>222772525I understand what you're saying but live action movies are different to cartoons and comics. You can't have Spider-Man talking to himself constantly because the audience would complain "why does he talk so much?"
>>222772581It's still funny to me that Gwen Stacy first became interested in him because he flat out ignored her.
>>222772689Peter figured out women a long time ago.
>>222772733Not quite, he was actually a huge jerk for the first several years of the comic. Flash, his high school bully, was hanging out with Harry Osborn and Gwen and tried to get his attention while he was deep in thought about Spider-Man shit. Harry thought it was funny, and Gwen was intrigued by his aloof nature. Part of the reason his marriage to Mary Jane was a big deal was because he didn't like her and told her as much, he basically told her to go fuck herself on more than one occasion.
>>222772675It would be like the 'original' dune movies or some noir film that doesnt match the vibe of modern Spiderman.
Peter just screaming all the time in this show is so fucking funny
