Ranking Every Marvel Animated TV Series From Worst To Best

7. Spider-Man And His Amazing Friends

Though Spidey's cheap as chips sixties debut undoubtedly holds the title for the most iconic animated portrayal of the wall-crawler, Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends certainly comes close.

I get that Iceman and Firestar aren't really the first things that come to mind when you think of the web-slinger, but for a time they were Spidey's undisputed best buddies. The show had a format that was easy to follow and even easier to enjoy, and made a name for itself by employing a constant flow of team-ups over the course of its three season tenure. Said collaborations involved everyone from The Avengers (Iron Man, Thor and Cap all made individual appearances) to the entire line-up of the X-Men, so Spidey basically had the honour of introducing the rest of the Marvel Universe one goofy episode at a time.

And that's what it is, really. Just plain old goofy fun, and a great means of watching some of Spidey's most light-hearted adventures.
