The Wedding - S5-E1

Other mistake: When J. Jonah Jameson is on the phone with Wilson Fisk, one shot shows that the area of Jameson's desk between the receiver and the cord is colored the same gray color as the cord, instead of the golden-brown color the rest of the desk is.

Six Forgotten Warriors Chapter 2: Unclaimed Legacy - S5-E3

Other mistake: When Silver Sable infiltrates Kingpin's Russian lair with sleeping gas, before falling unconscious, Kingpin correctly deduces that he has been betrayed. In the next scene, Kingpin asks Silver Sable how she was able to infiltrate his lair, and she tells him one of his men is a traitor, which elicits an incredulous reaction from Kingpin, completely contradicting the previous scene where Kingpin already surmised there was a traitor.

Six Forgotten Warriors Chapter 5: The Price of Heroism - S5-E6

Plot hole: 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. This episode, which originally aired on October 17, 1997, establishes that Captain America had spent the last 50 years locked in another dimension with Red Skull, and the episode ends with he and Red Skull once again becoming trapped in the aforementioned dimension. However, the final episode of Fantastic Four, entitled "Doomsday," which originally aired on February 24, 1996, features a cameo by Captain America in the present day, attempting to stop a rampaging Dr. Doom.

Six Forgotten Warriors Chapter 5: The Price of Heroism - S5-E6

Other mistake: Two scenes in this episode are shown out of order. First we see Captain America and Spider-Man lying on the ground near the dimensional vortex at the mercy of Chameleon and the Red Skull, with Cap flicking a rock across the room to distract Chameleon so that he and Spider-Man can re-engage them in battle. Shortly after, we see Spidey and Cap arriving at the dimensional vortex to configure it to defeat Electro, with Chameleon and Red Skull attacking them once Spidey has finished with the vortex, revealing they had been lying in wait knowing full well someone would figure out that the vortex was the key to stopping Electro.

The Return of Hydro-Man: Part 1 - S5-E7

Other mistake: When Spider-Man catches up to Mary Jane and Hydro-Man at the foundry, he webs up Hydro-Man's left wrist. When the shot changes to Spider-Man landing, he is not holding onto the web-line. When the shot changes back to Hydro-Man, his arm his pulled with the web-line remaining taut, even though Spider-Man is not holding the web. If Hydro-Man was moving his arm on his own, then the web-line would be slack.

The Return of Hydro-Man: Part 1 - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: When Spider-Man is in the lab analyzing Mary Jane's jacket for clues, the inside of the door to to the lab has the door knob on the right side. When Debra Whitman is trying to get in the lab, the door knob on the outside of the door is on the right side as well, when it should be on the left side. The inside knob also disappears when the security guards break the door down.

More quotes from Spider-Man

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.

Chosen answer: Felicia and Peter's friendship in this series was depicted as being on-again-off-again. At this point in the series they may have been on good terms. Plus Felicia is a wealthy socialite and Peter and Mary Jane's wedding was a big event due to Wilson Fisk paying for all of it.
