What happens

The Amazing Spider-Man (known simply as Spider-Man for the second season) is an American superhero television series, based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man. It is the second live-action television series appearance of a Marvel character. Spidey Super Stories aired three years earlier on The Electric Company. It originally aired on CBS in the United States from September 14, 1977 to July 6, 1979. Though it was a considerable ratings success, the CBS series was cancelled after just 13 episodes, which included a pilot film airing in autumn of 1977. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
