To tie-in with the current "Spider-Verse" storyline currently taking place in the Amazing Spider-Man comic book, Marvel Entertainment has released two episodes of the 1970s Japanese live-action Spider-Man series online. The series, which ran for 41 episodes on Tokyo Channel 12 between May 1978 and Mar. 1979, was a co-production of the Toei Company and Marvel, and saw the familiar web-slinging superhero revised to become a motorcycle rider named Takyua Yamashiro who gains superpowers after a blood transfusion with an alien from the planet Spider.
