Line 91:
* ''[[Spider-Man: The Animated Series]]'' had Mary Jane sucked into a limbo between universes. She later came back, until it was revealed that this was a clone, and the series was [[Screwed by the Network]] before the real Mary Jane was seen again. Though at least the final episode makes it clear that Peter is about to go on a mission to save her.
* Kim, from ''[[The Venture Brothers]].'' She was a very insignificant character who became an [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] randomly after showing off a cool outfit and vaguely interesting personality in the episode "Victor. Echo. November." The writers never particularly cared for her and didn't bring her back - so they wrote her out with a quick line in the fourth season finale, where her friend Triana says that Kim moved to Florida, fell in with preppies, got addicted to drugs, then became a born-again Christian. In other words, they deliberately killed ''anything'' cool about her and skewed her as far in the other direction as possible.
* In ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'', John Jameson, a likable and heroic character, ends up getting powers that make him a [[Flying Brick]], and expresses interest in becoming a superhero alially of Spidey. Unfortunately, those powers [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|cause him to become increasingly aggressive and irrational]], which is helped along by Venom attacking him while pretending to be Spider-Man. Spider-Man end up having to rather brutally de-power John in order to stop him. When last seen in the show, John is in an asylum and is a broken wreck suffering from power withdrawal and shown to be every bit as crazy as Electro, the most mentally unstable character in the series.
