Although, comparison with the present standard would be completely unfair, it gained significant popularity at its time. Later next year, it spawned the telecast of successful series ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ on CBS. Two other direct-to-Television movies were released in 1978(Spider-Man Strikes Back) and 1981(Spider-Man: The Dragon’s Challenge).
