Starring: Edward Asner, Roscoe Lee Browne, Christopher Daniel Barnes, Sara Ballantine
Genres: Action, Animated, Crime, Family, Fantasy, Sci-fi, Thriller
Secret Wars, Chapter 3: Doom - S5-E11
Other mistake: This series is in the same continuity as the other Marvel animated series from around the same time - X-Men, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, and Fantastic Four - by virtue of each aforementioned show crossing over with at least one of the others. However, in Fantastic Four, Dr. Doom had a German accent, and in this episode he has a Russian accent.
Sins of the Fathers Chapter 6: Framed - S3-E6
Plot hole: After Peter Parker is framed and arrested for selling government secrets to foreign organizations, he escapes police custody and goes home to retrieve his Spider-Man costume that was simply hanging in his dark room. If he was arrested for selling government secrets then surely the police would have searched his home and found his costume (as well as equipment) in the process. Since the police car was visible in front of his house, it seems very strange that police didn't search his home.
Spider-Man: Subtetly is not your strong point, is it?
Wolverine: Hey, can't even spell the word.
The Alien Costume: Part 1 - S1-E8
Trivia: When Peter Parker is testing the costume changing capabilities of the symbiote, he suggests "that guy from Aerosmith," and materializes a suit similar to what Joe Perry from Aerosmith wears. Joe Perry composed the theme song for this show. (00:14:20)
Question: Why did they go with Jason Macendale as Hobgoblin instead of the original one, Roderick Kingsley?
Answer: In the comics, Hobgoblin's true identity was kept a mystery for a long time intentionally and while many fans deduced it was Kingsley, and creator Roger Stern was leaning that way, Stern left the series in 1984. In 1987 Hobgoblin's identity was revealed to be Ned Leeds and then Macendale became Hobgoblin. It wasn't until 1997 that Sterns wrote the mini-series "Hobgoblin Lives" and retconned Kingsley as the original Hobgoblin.

Suggested correction: It was a part of the character's redesign. The writer of Spider-Man, John Semper Jr, disliked the Fantastic Four cartoon to the point that he not only changed characters' designs but their voice actors as well.
Redesigning the character is not a valid correction, because it still creates a contradiction within the shared universe. Even under the pretense of redesigning the character due to not liking the previously established version, it would still be a deliberate mistake.
