Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which was the first episode of the series where Curt Conners didn't appear as the Lizard?

Answer: The Alien Costume: Part Two

In season 1's "The Alien Costume: Part Two", Spider-Man came to Dr. Conners in order to investigate the properties of his new black suit. Conners would later return as the Lizard in the episode "Tablet of Time" in season 2, and from then on, his role as the Lizard would be recurring while at other times, he continued to be a supporting character.

His final appearance in the series would be as the Lizard in the episode "Doom" as one of Spider-Man's allies rather than one of his enemies, merging the two personalities of the Lizard and Conners together.
2. Whose death was J. Jonah Jameson motivated by that made him hate Spider-Man and all other masked vigilantes?

Answer: Julia Jameson

As revealed in season 1's "The Sting of the Scorpion", Jameson hates all masked vigilantes, such as Spider-Man, because his wife was gunned down by a masked man, who had been hired by a crime boss who Jameson was reporting about in his earlier years. It would be this motivation for Jameson that convinced him to go against Spider-Man by hiring Mac Garkin to become the Scorpion so that Garkin could finally defeat Spider-Man.

Although that plan backfired when the Scorpion went insane, and Jameson saw the error of what he created, he still holds a grudge against Spider-Man even after he stopped the Scorpion.
3. Who was the first girl Peter Parker kissed in the show?

Answer: Felicia Hardy

In season 1's "The Spider Slayer", Felicia decided to dance with Peter rather than Flash Thompson, and it came to a kiss. However, when the Spider Slayer attacked the party searching for Spider-Man, Peter inadvertently made himself look like a coward by running away from the chaos when he really went to change into his Spider-Man costume in private.

Although Felicia berated Peter for this supposed action, that wouldn't really affect the relationship she already had with him.
4. Mary Jane's first line to Peter was, "Face it, tiger. You just hit the jackpot."

Answer: True

In Mary Jane's first appearance in the series, season 1's "The Return of the Spider Slayers", at the very end of the episode, Peter opened the door to his house and saw Mary Jane standing there as she said, "Face it, tiger. You just hit the jackpot." This is a reference to the first thing she said to Peter when they first met in the comics.

In fact, in nearly every incarnation of Mary Jane, she has always said this line to Peter when they first met, with the exception of her adaptation in the Sam Raimi films and in the 2003 animated series.
5. Which episode was the Rhino's first appearance in the show?

Answer: The Alien Costume: Part One

In season 1's "The Alien Costume: Part One", the Rhino made his debut when the Kingpin hired him to collect the Promethieum X from John Jameson's crashed space shuttle on the George Washington Bridge. While there, he briefly confronted Spider-Man and made it out, successfully delivering the Promethiuem X to the Kingpin.

At the end of the episode, a black-suited Spider-Man almost killed the Rhino when they met again in combat.
6. Who voiced Dr. Octopus in the show?

Answer: Efrem Zimbalist Jr.

Throughout the entire series' run, Zimbalist Jr. sported a thick Germanic accent which is most likely stereotypically linked to Dr. Octopus's background in science, in the same vein as Albert Einstein or any number of German scientists. Around the same time, Zimbalist Jr. had voiced Alfred Pennyworth in the popular 1990s "Batman" TV show. Zimbalist Jr. would later reprise his role as Dr. Octopus in the 2000 "Spider-Man" game.
7. Which two X-Men were among the main focus in the two-part Spider-Man/X-Men crossover in this show's second season?

Answer: Wolverine and Beast

Beast's role in this crossover provided the back story to Dr. Landon's work in creating a chemical designed to kill mutants. Wolverine's involvement was in teaming up with Spider-Man to save Beast and foil Landon's plans. The other X-Men were given nothing more than supporting roles that could be said to be glorified cameos.
8. Who had originally voiced Whistler in this show?

Answer: Malcolm McDowell

In Whistler's first two appearances in the show, in season 2's "Blade the Vampire Hunter" and "The Immortal Vampire", he was voiced by famed British actor Malcolm McDowell, best known for his role as Alex DeLarge in the Stanley Kubrick classic, "A Clockwork Orange".

In Whistler's later appearances in season 4's "The Awakening" and "The Vampire Queen", McDowell had been replaced by voice actor Oliver Muirhead. Muirhead had previously voiced the Spot in the season 3 episode aptly titled "The Spot".
9. Carnage's first appearance in the show was in the season 3 episode, "Carnage".

Answer: False

Carnage's first appearance in the show was in the season 3 episode, "Venom Returns", which is the first part to the two-part episode that ends with "Carnage". In "Venom Returns", Cletus Kasady was fully introduced as a maniac, and near the episode's end, he was given the Venom symbiote's offspring to become the titular villain of the following episode.

But due to the series' restrictions, there was no actual carnage for the villain's namesake to commit.
10. "Kraven the Hunter" was Kraven the Hunter's first appearance on the show.

Answer: True

Kraven was first introduced as the main antagonist of the season 1 episode of which he was the titular character. In his following appearances in the season 2 episodes of "Morbius" and "Duel of the Hunters", Kraven served as a protagonist who would butt heads with the Punisher in order to defeat the Man-Spider in the latter episode. Kraven would make his final appearance in the show in season 4's "The Return of Kraven" and reappear as the antagonist he was in his first appearance.
11. Who was the villain seen at the very end of season 2's "The Final Nightmare"?

Answer: Baron Mordo

Baron Mordo had pretended to be Mary Jane Watson's father in his successful attempt to have her join his cult in the purpose of freeing the Dread Dormammu into the mortal realm. This final scene of the season 2 finale had set up the plot for the Season 3 premiere of "Doctor Strange" where this would all be resolved.

However, Mordo would try again to free Dormammu with the help of Venom and Carnage in "Venom Returns" and "Carnage".
12. The Green Goblin's first appearance in the show was in the episode "_____________".

Answer: Enter the Green Goblin

Season 3's "Enter the Green Goblin" was the culmination of Norman Osborn's arc from his development as a character in his previous appearances. Interestingly enough, he was introduced after the Hobgoblin made his own debut into the series, whereas it was the other way around in the comics.

The Green Goblin's later appearances in this season would lead up to a very famous homage to a particular Spider-Man storyline in the comics.
13. Who was Peter going out with in season 1's "The Menace of Mysterio"?

Answer: Mary Jane Watson

Peter and Mary Jane were going out with the pretense of Peter helping MJ with her physics homework. Peter's life as Spider-Man, especially with the crisis that ensues thanks to Mysterio's machinations, interferes in his date with MJ. Nevertheless, she forgives him after she studied for her physics test and passed, as she reveals by the episode's end.
14. The device used in season 3's final five episodes was called the Time Dilation Accelerator.

Answer: True

Due to the series' tight restrictions on disallowing death on the show, with very few exceptions, the Time Dilation Accelerator was quite literally used as a deus ex machina for the sake of ridding certain characters in the season without killing them.

The villains who used the Time Dilation Accelerator for their own purposes were Dormammu, the Kingpin, the Spot, the Hobgoblin, and the Green Goblin. The characters who were rid of by the Time Dilation Accelerator were Dormammu, Venom, Carnage, the Spot, Silvia Lopez, Mary Jane, and the Green Goblin.
15. Which episode in the series mirrored that of the famous Spider-Man comic book storyline "The Night Gwen Stacy Died"?

Answer: Turning Point

In season 3's finale, "Turning Point", the Green Goblin figured out that Spider-Man was Peter Parker and decided to use this knowledge to kidnap Mary Jane and lead Spider-Man in a final showdown at the George Washington Bridge. During the ensuing confrontation, Mary Jane fell into a portal created by the Time Dilation Accelerator while no one was looking, and Spider-Man, believing MJ to have been lost at worst, attacks the Green Goblin in a rage.

The resulting climax of the fight had the Goblin pushed into one of his portals by his own glider, thus ensuring the pseudo-deaths of MJ and the Goblin in a slight homage to "The Night Gwen Stacy Died".
