Underground Rivers - University of New Mexico

Chapter 25 -- Radio Days and Saturday Matinees
In the Spider-Man TV series (1967) "Cloud City of
Gold," Peter Parker and his professor are flying
over the Andes when the plane crashes. The
professor, pilot and navigator all survive but there's
no sign of young Parker. Just as they notice that
they're trapped in a hostile jungle with menacing
natives watching their every move, Spider-Man
comes to the rescue. After building a raft to getting
caught in a whirlpool, Spider Man leads them into
an underground river. But watch out for the bats!
The Spider man episode "Menace from the Bottom of the
World" is more karstic. Peter Parker investigates a
seismologist's claim of detecting subterranean voices in an
unknown language. Using his spider-hearing, Peter
determines that these are the people responsible for a recent
bank disappearance. Donning his red costume, Peter races
to the next target on the evil-doers' list, sees it disappear into
the ground and descends into the sinkhole to investigate.
G.I. Joe's propensity for large-caliber shoulder-fired weapons is rivaled by his reliance on
underground rivers. The TV covers are from DVD releases.
