The Weird WTF Story of Japanese Spider Man (aka Supaidāman) & Leopardon

Spider-Man (スパイダーマン, Supaidāman), also referred to as Japanese Spider-Man, is a Japanese live-action tokusatsu television series produced by Toei Company, loosely based on Marvel Comics' Spider-Man character. While Toei's version of the character wore the same costume as his Marvel counterpart, the show's storyline and the origin of the character's powers deviated from the source material. From his origin, his job as "an emissary of Hell" and the giant robot named Leopardon he pilots this Spider Man doesn't have a lot in common with Spider Man proper.
