Spider-Man: The Animated Series/Headscratchers
- Consider this. Mary Jane fell through one of The Spot's portals in the final episode of Season 3. She came back partway through Season 4 and Peter proposed, with the two getting married in the first episode of Season 5. We then found out later in Season 5, that the Mary Jane who returned - and married Peter - was a clone. And then the series ends with Peter and Madame Web going into the void to where the real Mary Jane wound up after she fell through the portal. Now, am I the only one who REALLY wanted to see that reunion and wanted to see Peter explain to Mary Jane that they were husband and wife?
- And that he had been boning a water clone of her? Very yus.
- We would have seen it, if the series hadn't been cancelled.
- The ending of the excellent Nineties Spider-Man animated series bugged me for one reason. One of the major plot-threads dealt with Mary Jane disappearing in a Lighter and Softer take on The Death of Gwen Stacy, where Mary Jane is knocked off a bridge by the Green Goblin but falls through a portal into the space between realities and is presumed Lost Forever "Mary Jane" later returns and she and Peter get married. And then it is revealed that "Mary Jane" is actually a clone. In the final episode, after proving Good is stronger than Evil in The Secret War and saving all of reality from a Parallel Universe evil version of himself]], Peter is finally judged worthy of getting Madame Web's help in finding just where in the void Mary Jane wound up. And that's where the series ends... totally ignoring the question of just how the heck Peter is going to explain to Mary Jane a) what just happened b) that he is Spider-Man and c) they're now legally married in the other reality.
- Those issues presumably were going to be addressed. They had planned for at least one more season (I believe there was some plan where Spidey would end up, at least temporarily, in 19th century England where Cletus Kasady would be Jack the Ripper or something) but the show was cancelled.
- While we're on this subject. Can someone explain to me how Black Cat found Morbius, and why both of them joined freaking Blade?! There was NO BUILD UP to that.
- And why would they show Captian America locked in neverending stasis battle with Red Skull, when Captain is almost American symbol of American way?

- So Spider-Man escapes his neogetic mutation by dumping it into Vulture (turning him into a man who jumps between young and old and man and Man-Spider, by the way), and yet the next time we see Vulture he's cured himself of the whole Man-Spider thing. Did that happen offscreen? It's so rare that a plot point of this magnitude wasn't resolved (or at least mentioned) onscreen.
- Why is it that both Spider-Man and the Green Goblin say that Gobby miniaturized the time-dilation accelerator... but the damn thing's bigger now?
