This show just gets better and better.

I like that they didn't try to "hip" up Doc Ock... he should be pudgy! This show is a lot of fun, and I always try to catch it.

This show has been really really good. My kid and I both love it. When I first saw the animation style for Peter Parker and the other regular folks I was a little worried, but the action scenes and in costume designs have been top notch and the characterization has been great. Sure they've changed some things from the comics pretty radically, but most of it works pretty well and they have kept enough true to the books that it's not a problem.

Peter MacNicol ("Numbers" Ally McBeal") does the voice of Doc Ock, BTW.

Glad you're digging the show. I am, too. Very much so, in fact. The storytelling has been superb. The only costume design I had a slight problem with is The Green Goblin. I didn't think it was bad, per se, but it just didn't "wow" me, either. Hard to pinpoint what I didn't like about it, to be honest, but I do know I didn't like it as much as the other villain designs thus far. Doc Ock looks great, though, and I'm looking forward to this week's episode.

What bothered me about GG's costume was his mask. His face just looked too...pleasant
