Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends is an animated series produced by Marvel Productions Ltd. starring established

Marvel Comics characters Spider-Man and Iceman and an original character, Firestar. As a trio called the Spider-

Friends, they fought against various villains.

Peter Parker (Spider-Man), Bobby Drake (Iceman), and Angelica Jones (Firestar) are all college students at Empire

State University. After working together to defeat the Beetle and recovering the "Power Booster" he stole from Tony

Stark (a.k.a. Iron Man) the trio decide to team-up permanently as the "Spider-Friends." They live together in

Peter's Aunt May's home with her and a pet dog, Ms. Lion, a lhasa apso. Together, the superheroes battle various

supervillains.Some stories featured team-ups with other characters from the Marvel Universe, including Captain

America, Iron Man, Sunfire, and the mid-1970s X-Men.

Originally broadcast on NBC as a Saturday morning cartoon, the series ran first-run original episodes for three

seasons, from 1981 to 1983, then aired repeats for an additional two years (from 1984 to 1986). Alongside the 1981

Spider-Man animated series, Amazing Friends was later re-aired in the late 1980s as part of the ninety-minute Marvel

Action Universe (not to be confused with 1977's The Marvel Action Universe), a syndicated series that was used as a

platform for old and new Marvel-produced animated fare (the newer programming featured RoboCop: The Animated Series,

Dino-Riders and on occasion “Pryde of the X-Men”, which was intended to serve as a pilot for a potential "X-Men"

animated series).

In the second season, the show was aired along with a newly produced Hulk animated series as The Incredible Hulk and

the Amazing Spider-Man. The two shows shared one intro which showcased the new title. Stan Lee began narrating the

episodes in the second season. Narrations by Stan Lee were also ADDED to the first season episodes at this time so

that the series seemed cohesive. These narrations (for the first and second season) are not on the current masters.

They have not aired since the NBC airings.(As seen on the Stan Lee narration list at Spider-Friends.com[1])

For the third season, there was another title change. This time the characters' names would be reversed and the show

was called, The Amazing Spider-Man and the Incredible Hulk. It remained that way for most of the remaining years.

NBC did air the show individually in mid-season (post 1986) after it was not initially announced for their fall

schedule. Only some of the Stan Lee narrations for the third season are on the current masters. The missing

narrations have not aired since the NBC airings.

DVD

The Complete Seasons 1-3 box set has been released in the UK.[2] This release did not include any of the Stan Lee

narrations from the first or second season. Only some of the Stan Lee narrations were in the third season.

No Region 1 release is planned at this time.
