Episode #23 - The Return Of The Flying Dutchman Review: This is it. My utter and absolute favourite episode of this show ever. If you�ve read any of the previous reviews, you�ll know that this is the very first episode of any Spider-Man cartoon I saw at the tender age of 3 years old and would eventually watch the episode until I could quote the damn thing word for word. That poor, poor VHS�It never stood a chance. I actually still have it now. It�s completely and utterly battered. The episode itself features the return of my favourite villain from the show, Mysterio, Master Of Illusion! I think Mysterio fits the tone of this show perfectly, a goofy villain with a great gimmick and superb voice work. The majority of the villains had their designs streamlined for animation, and Mysterio�s worked better than most. This episode even delves into past episodes, with Mysterio citing his experience as a stuntman. Once again, Spider-Man proves his mighty webbing is easily the greatest substance ever created, using the liquid to create a sword stronger than steal, and teaching Mysterio�s chumps how a real sword fight is done! I�ve no doubt that this is my favourite episode purely due to nostalgia, but this genuinely is one of the shows better episodes. Screenshots:
