The Spectacular Spider-Man - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details
Easter Eggs
Creator Cameos
Several members of the production staff have brief, hidden cameos in the show. Supervising producer Greg Weisman appears in the opening credits in the crowd in Times Square and again in the episode "Gangland". Supervising director Victor Cook appears as a DJ in "Blueprints".
Shocker's Identity
In the series, Shocker's alter ego is Jackson Brice. In the comics, Brice is the villain Montana, a member of the Enforcers, while Shocker is Herman Schultz. The show combined these characters to streamline the story.
A Background Romance
A man and a woman who Spider-Man saves in Season 1, Episode 8 ("Reaction") are later seen in the background of Season 2, Episode 10 ("Gangland"), where the man proposes to the woman. This creates a subtle, ongoing romantic storyline for two background characters across the series.
