Review And Media by Amazing Spidey
Episode #45 - The Return Of Krave Music Composed By: Shuki Levy and Kussa Mahchi Animation Services By: Toyko Movie Shinsha (TMS) Guest Starring: Christopher Daniel Barnes as Spider-Man/Peter Parker, Gregg Berger as Kraven the Hunter/Sergei Kravinoff, Nina Talbot as Anastasia Hardy, Matthew Laborteaux as Flash Thompson, Susan Beaubian as Dr. Mariah Crawford/Calypso Review: The episode was somewhat unwelcome, but proved to be an enjoyable one. Kraven�s return wasn�t really needed considering he had already had 2 perfectly send off�s, a 3rd one wasn�t required. Kraven worked better as a hero in this series, rather than a villain. As a villain, he came off as a little corny, not exactly a threatening adversary for the wall crawler.The best part of this episode�s is Spidey�s characterisation. Still suffering from the loss of Mary Jane, he�s now a bitter, broken man who is annoyed at Black Cat�s constant harassment of him, as she wishes to be a crime fighter like him. The episode is also pretty dark for this cartoon. Spidey�s genuine lack of concern for the cat was surprise. Not how our hero usually acts. The episode does do a nice job of moving a lot of the relationships on, however. Flash and Debra, Spidey and Black Cat, even Kraven and Mariah. It's actually one of the best episodes of season 4. Not a difficult task, granted, but stil, it does a great job with Spidey. The final scene with him and Black Cat was executed perfectly, especially the music. I love that theme they played. It's the same one from the end of Attack Of The Octobot. The ending was a nice turnaround, with Peter moving back in with Harry. Not everything is so bitter after all. While it was only a small scene, a bigger story became of it later. Screenshots:
