‘Spider-Man '94' Comic Will Pick Up Right Where the Animated Series Left Off

Spider-Man: The Animated Series remains a fan favorite nearly 30 years after its conclusion—and it's not just that giant cliffhanger ending that makes people wish it would return, though that's certainly a motivating factor. While the first season of X-Men '97 did wink at the Spidey ending in its own finale last year, Marvel's current animated series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man has its own continuity going. However, a new Marvel comic will dive right back into The Animated Series story proper, starting where it left off.
IGN reports four-issue limited series Spider-Man '94 (so named because Spider-Man: The Animated Series debuted that year on Fox Kids Network) will show that Peter's search for MJ (the real MJ, not her clone) was indeed successful—as X-Men '97 suggested with that MJ cameo—and they're both back in New York in time to face a pair of notorious, new-to-them villains.
Here's how Marvel's press release describes the story: 'After searching to the ends of the Multiverse, PETER PARKER – the AMAZING, the SPECTACULAR, the RADIOACTIVE Web-Head himself – A.K.A. SPIDER-MAN, swings back into the streets of New York City with his beloved Mary Jane WATSON in tow! But what's this? One of these villains is not like the others: Witness this universe's debut of not one, but TWO of Spider-Man's greatest villains from the comics!'
'Legendary Spider-Scribe J.M. DeMATTEIS and rising star artist JIM TOWE bring you the return you've all been waiting thirty years for! And you're never going to expect the twists and turns ahead for your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man! Break out your action figures, and post up in front of the TV as we bring you back to the greatest era of animated super hero television in history!'
DeMatteis told IGN that 'We're treating this as the next season of the show,' staying true to the spirit of the series while also introducing new adventures and bringing fresh foes into the mix. Spider-Man '94 #1 arrives September 3. Will you be checking it out?
