Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Funded by Stan Lee's POW! Entertainment during his prolific 'slap my name on anything' era. This was one of several direct-to-video animations bearing his branding with minimal creative involvement.

Trivia

The entire film exists because someone at Marvel saw 'Tony Hawk's Pro Skater' sales figures and said 'what if Spider-Man but boards?' The answer was apparently this.
