Spider-Man (or Supaidāman for those of you who love laughing at rōmaji) was a late 1970s series developed by Marvel and Japan's Toei Company. Unlike the American source material, however, it's much, much weirder. The show follows Takuya Yamashiro in the title role, but he's no Peter Parker. Instead of being a nebbishy high school nerd who was bitten by a radioactive spider, he's a motorcyclist who was given his spider powers to help in an intergalactic war against the evil Professor Monster and the Iron Cross Group. And along with his costume, he's given a space ship that can transform into a giant robot called Leopardon.

Oh my . . . the 1970s were not kind to media.
