The Amazing Spider-Man

I've never seen this version of the Wall-Crawler, which aired on TV back in the 1970s. Peter Parker/Spider-Man is played by Nicholas Hammond, who looks a little older than what a college student should be, but he's not bad.

Although the bad guy here uses mind control, there are no super villains from the Spider-Man rogues gallery; Spidey takes on regular crooks--sort of like the George Reeves TV version of Superman had him dealing with regular gangsters. It's a shame because Spider-Man has some cool villains in the comics (most of whom were used in the recent movies), but I guess they didn't have the budget back then.
