Interesting. I wasn't aware of his origin; he was already in rhino form when I saw him on the animated series. But then, the same went for the Green Goblin.
I wonder if Mysterio will be fodder in an upcoming Spider-man flick. I liked his elements in the 1960s animated series better than the one in the 1990s series.
Spider-man had two animated comebacks in the 1980s, and to be honest, it's been many years since I saw many episodes from either series. I can't remember from either series very well.
I saw Episode One of the 1981 rendition several months back, and the coloring of Doctor Octopus was - unfortunately - downright laughable. This is unfortunately the price you pay for *not* making your TV series in First-run Syndication form; you have more time to produce the episodes, but the networks have more control over what goes through and what doesn't, and what kind of changes the network demands.
