While so many other people are getting excited about a CGI-laden multi-million dollar movie, I am instead, geeking out on this fabulous Japanese Spider-Man TV show from 1978 - 1979.
A 22 year-old motocross racer named Takuya Yamashiro comes upon a crashed spacecraft from the planet Spider. The planet spider was destroyed by Professor Monster and his army. The occupant of this craft (Garia) injects Takuya with some of his blood which gives Takuya spider-like abilities. Garia also gives him a bracelet that activates a spider suit (called a spider protector costume) and activates his web (that look like ropes). Armed with his new powers, he does battle against Professor Monster and other bad guys.
Oh yeah, one more thing, he is assisted in his fight against evil by a giant robot.
First, enjoy the opening with a great theme song!
Here, he battles the Mer-Man...
If you are still puzzling about the title of this post, Spider-Man would sometimes introduce himself as "Messenger from Hell, Spider-Man."
