Spider-Man in film
The first live-action film based on Spider-Man was the unauthorized short "Spider-Man" by Donald F. Glut in 1969. This was followed by "Spider-Man", an American made-for-television film that premiered on the CBS network in 1977. It starred Nicholas Hammond and was intended as a backdoor pilot for what became a weekly episodic TV series.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day
During this time, Marvel made "The Amazing Spider-Man" the company's sole Spider-Man title, upping its frequency of publication to three issues monthly and cancelling the other then-current Spider-Man titles "The Sensational Spider-Man" and "Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man", and inaugurated the series with a sequence of "back to basics" story arcs. This marks the first time since December 1976 (when "Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man" #1 was published) that only one regularly published title featured Spider-Man in its title.
