The only real show note to speak of is the image of...

Recently I managed to make my inner child very happy by scoring an interview with the man behind the 90s animated series simply called  Spider-Man . As I pointed out repeatedly in my article celebrating my top 12 episodes of the show I was -and still am- a huge fan of this series so having the opportunity to pick the brain of the man who brought this to life was a great experience for me.
