Spiderman is the only theme of the linked ones that I remember at all. I think it stayed on the air for a very long time. The others weren't played much, at least in my area.

Spider-man theme is a straight up classic. That my 3 year old has learnt it makes me a very proud dad. Of course, she identifies other superheroes (and Judge Dredd) as Spider-man, so we have a way to go yet on character identification.
There was one bit of incidental music they'd play in the 80s Hulk cartoon, usually when everything was going to crap, that was awesome.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87035-2841163Sat, 28 Nov 2009 17:15:09 -0800ArtwBy: Effigy2000

That Spiderman theme really takes me back to being a kid watching cartoons over a bowl of cereal in the morning, as I suspect it does for many other people. Thanks for this!comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87035-2841168Sat, 28 Nov 2009 17:23:46 -0800Effigy2000By: marxchivist

The Iron Man theme was pretty cool.
Even cooler is the fact that a) it was on the recent movie soundtrack as the original (attributed to "Jack Urbont"), as well as b) used as the basis of a swing version. It was a nice touch, I felt, when I cackled out loud in the theatre when I heard it.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87035-2841478Sun, 29 Nov 2009 06:35:55 -0800mephronBy: wet-raspberry

It's funny, back in Europe we didn't really get anything else apart from the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man. Don't remember them looking as crappy though - they were either a newer version or I was too young to care :)comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87035-2841518Sun, 29 Nov 2009 08:44:24 -0800wet-raspberryBy: majick

So <i>that's</i> the lyrics to the Hulk song. I could never figure them out. Sometimes I'd remember the cartoon just at bedtime and it would literally keep me awake.

"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself.

The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law.
