Spider-Woman (1979)
Entertaining absurdity...whenever spider-man isn't around
This show make no sense whatsoever, and that's generally fun. Spider-Woman defeats alien mummies with cubes. It absurd, ridiculous, and needs to be seen to be believed . My only real gripe is the series use of spider-man. He's only in two episodes, but he's weirdly condescending and kinda sexist to spider-woman, and this isn't portrayed as a bad thing. It's at its worst at the end of his second appearance. Spider-Woman gets captured and Spidey has to saves her, and even takes down the villain basically by himself. He also randomly asks her out afterwards. Making Spider-Man into a sexist jerk and Spider-Woman into a damsel in distress in her own show isn't great. Thankfully he's gone after that, and she goes back to beating up Dracula and stuff.
