Happy 30th Birthday, Spidey & Friends!

Saturday, September 12th 1981, "Spider-Man And His Amazing Friends" debuted on NBC's Saturday Morning line-up! Don't you feel REALLY OLD now?

Spider-man, Ice Man and Firestar fought crime from their brownstone apartment all through the 1980's, never having to update their style or design at all. And they gave me some of my biggest Saturday morning thrills EVER when they would bring in other Marvel comics characters. "THAT'S THE X-MEN! THAT'S CAPTAIN AMERICA! OMG I CAN DIE NOW!!!"

Don't you feel REALLY OLD now?

They started almost a month after I was born, so getting there. This means I was watching this show (and remember a lot of details) when I was 6 months old.

Your memory may have been reinforced by the later re-runs. But then again, I have otherwise inexplicable memories of stuff from when I was really really young, too.
