Spider-Man - The Sting of the Scorpion

Spidey Saturday takes us back to the 90s New York City and an animated Wall-Crawler. After being turned down by Felicia Hardy (Jennifer Hale) as boyfriend material, and taking down a group of jewel thieves, Spider-Man (Christopher Daniel Barnes) confronts J. Jonah Jameson (Edward Asner) about the man he hired to follow Peter Parker around which has the opposite effect Spidey was hoping for. Shaken, Jameson takes Mac Gargan (Martin Landau) to the genetics lab at Empire State University where Professor Stillwell (Michael Rye) will use the Neogenic Recombinator and a battle suit to turn Gargan from pushover into the Scorpion.
