Spider-Man (1967) Episode Fifty: Specialists and Slaves

Specialists and Slaves

First Aired: May 31st, 1970

Synopsis: The villain from Swing City, now calling himself the Radiation Specialist, manages to take over a nuclear power plant. Knowing that Spider-Man might stop him, he uses a remote-controlled car to lure Spider-Man out of Manhattan with a recording which makes it seem that a hostage is inside. Once the Specialist has done so, he covers the city with radiation, which apparently makes it so that weak-willed minds can be controlled by him, and which somehow makes Manhattan float into the sky. Spider-Man reaches the car, but finds out how he's been tricked, and swings underneath Manhattan before returning to the city by crawling through a sewer pipe.

Synopsis: While in science class, Peter Parker stares at his fellow student, Sonya, instead of listening to a lecture about a new industrial reactor which has been built in Manhattan. After the class is over, Sonya asks Peter to tutor her since she's bad at science. At the aforementioned reactor, a man calling himself the Master Technician breaks in and takes over it, ranting about how everyone laughs at him. He says that he will teach everyone about power as he has modified the reactor.
