'The Night of the Villains'.

Wax figure expert Parafino (voice of Len Carlson) returns, this time sending out robots modeled after historical figures - Jesse James, the executioner of Paris, Blackbeard the pirate - to commit robberies. Spidey is of course mystified that he seems to be the only individual who's seeing these characters. Yet, he figures everything out in due time. But before that, Spidey's alter ego Peter Parker is deemed to be in need of a vacation when he brings up the idea of Spidey seeing Jesse James to Jameson. The ending is priceless, with Spidey presenting the "value pack" of villains to a stunned Jameson.

'Here Comes Trubble'.

The title villainess (voiced by regular cast member Peg Dixon, who usually voiced Betty Brant), who is an expert on Greek mythology and who runs a used book store, keeps pestering Jameson to let her write a column on the subject. In the meantime, she uses a magical treasure chest to conjure up mythological characters, mostly sending them after Spider-Man but also utilizing them for the occasional robbery. The best part is Spidey's fight with the Cyclops, as he offers up some choice quips, also including, "You got it all wrong! I'm not Ulysses!"
