Spider-Man: The New Animated Series

Spider-Man: The New Animated Series (also known as Spider-Man 2003 and MTV Spider-Man) is an American-Canadian animated television series that was the first of two shows based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man to be produced by Sony Pictures Television following their acquisition of the character's entertainment license. Initially intended to serve as a continuation of Sam Raimi's 2002 Spider-Man film, as well as a loose adaptation of the Ultimate Spider-Man comic books by Brian Michael Bendis, the show was made using computer generated imagery (CGI) rendered in cel shading. It ran for only one season of 13 episodes, premiering on July 11, 2003, and was broadcast on cable channels MTV in America and YTV in Canada. The show is no longer considered canon to the events of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man film series, as events in the series were ultimately contradicted by the events of the first film's eventual follow-up, Spider-Man 2, released theatrically a year after this show's debut and cancellation.
