Spider Wars, Chapter 1: I Really, Really Hate Clones - S5-E12
Continuity mistake: When the group of Spider-Men are observing the Green Goblin and the Kingpin's henchmen from inside the ventilation shaft, the outside edge of the shaft cover is first shown to be on the wall outside of the shaft, and then inside the shaft itself when the Armored Spider-Man pulls the cover off.
Sins of the Fathers Chapter 1: Doctor Strange - S3-E1
Revealing mistake: When Mary Jane and the other servants of Baron Mordo are flying through the city, they literally disappear into thin air. Probably a problem with rendering the 2D animation within the 3D animation. (00:01:00)
Spider-Man: Subtetly is not your strong point, is it?
Wolverine: Hey, can't even spell the word.
Trivia: Around the same time this show was airing, James Cameron was in the midst of developing a Spider-Man film which would have featured Sandman and Electro as the villains. Due to this plan, Sandman never appeared on this show despite being a prominent member of Spidey's rogue's gallery. Electro eventually made an appearance in the show's final season once it was determined that Cameron's film would never come to fruition, though the Electro that appeared on this show was a bastardized version of his comics counterpart.
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.
