The Japanese Spider-Man

In the late 1970's Marvel licensed a Japanese company to do their own version of Spider-Man for Japanese television. Done in a style similar to the various Sentai or Kamen Riders series, other than the costume this version bore no real relation to his American counterpart. A full series DVD box set is available to buy...but only in Japan.
