  As a kid we didn't care about the lack of known villains and love interests. We were just happy to see him on TV.

  Peter parker was only a teenager in the comics for the first 28 issues. He graduated high school in issue 28. By the time the show premiered he had been in college for about a decade. So him being a college student is still accurate to the source material.

  The actor Nicholas Hammond moved to Australia back in the late 1980's. I met him in about 1991 at a pop culture convention and he happily chatted about Spiderman for close to an hour about it with the audience he attracted.

  Here are two more facts about Spider-Man that were not mentioned<br><br>*Chip Fields, who played Rita, was often shot either sitting behind a desk, or from the chest up. That&apos;s because she filmed her scenes while pregnant. <br><br>*There were many cases when scenes of Spider-Man were shot on the same lot as Wonder Woman. Fred Waugh was good friends with Jeannie Epper, the primary Wonder Woman stunt double. There were many cases where they visit each other&apos;s sets to hang out wearing their respective costumes. Too bad no one could take pictures at the time.

  Nicholas Hammond was the perfect &apos;70s/Bronze-Age of Comics, Spider-Man. He was great as Peter. Smart but not nerdy, shy but not a pathetic loser. That&apos;s the way Peter Parker was in the 1970&apos;s. Also the infamous cocky, sarcastic, humor of Peter Parker/Spider-Man is there if you listen for it. Parker&apos;s struggle with money and trying to do the right thing despite who he might hurt is in the late &apos;70s &nbsp;tv show.

  I loved how this Spider-Man actually looks like a fully-grown adult man. He never looked like Spider-Boy.

  Seeing the Spider-Man stunt double actually walking up the side of the building was great.

  Nicholas Hammond was the obvious model for the 90s animated series and my favorite peter in animated form.

  Back when Marvel and DC lived in harmony. I miss being a kid in the 70&apos;s.

  Ironically Stan Lee LOVED the Japanese Spiderman which came out in the 70&apos;s as well.I remember waiting to see Spidey on Electric Company.
