(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends
cartoon episode - "Attack of the Arachnoid") - Breaking into the World
Trade Center,
the Scorpion stole a canister of the experimental Z99 gas.
During the robbery, he encountered Spider-Man and tossed him out of a
window. Seeing Spider-Man web-swinging back towards him, the Scorpion
remarked that he had made some improvements on his battlesuit and he
used his suit's cutters to snip Spider-Man's webline. Climbing
to the roof, he was stopped when Firestar arrived and surrounded him
with fire. He blasted her with his Scorpion Sting and tried to leap to
the other tower but fell short, dropping the gas canister, which opened
up on the way
down. Iceman, who had arrived earlier to to save Spider-Man, created a
similar ice slide to save the Scorpion. When the Scorpion made it to
the ground,
Firestar engulfed him in a fireball to keep him from moving. The
Scorpion watched as Spider-Man recovered the stolen gas canister and
webbed it
shut.
Afterwards,
the Scorpion was arrested and sent to Riker's Island. Put in a
special wing for costumed criminals, the Scorpion was allowed to keep
his battlesuit. When
Spider-Man was put in the cell next to him, having been arrested for crimes committed by the spider-like Arachnoid, the
Scorpion broke down the wall that separated their cells and
attacked. The fight was short, with Spider-Man being thrown around and
nearly crushed by his tail. Spider-Man escaped when he ducked near the
force field door of his cell and the Scorpion blasted it with his
Sting, shorting it out and allowing the hero to escape the cell with the Scorpion in pursuit.
When
Spider-Man was on the outer wall, the Scorpion blasted the wall with
his Sting. He missed Spider-Man but created a hole to the outside.
Coiling his tail, he launched himself at Spider-Man and carried the
fight outside. They battled on the rocky shoreline with the
Scorpion
finally connecting with his Sting and burying Spider-Man under a sand
dune. With the hero prone, the Scorpion loomed over him with his
cutters at the ready. When the guards confronted them, the Scorpion
blasted
them and Spider-Man escaped. As the guards fired on them
both, the Scorpion fled to the island's generator building. Spider-Man
followed him inside and the Scorpion fired at him from a
walkway above the door. He boasted of his superiority as the hero
dodged his attacks and knocked the Scorpion to the floor. Following the
hero to
the main control panel, the Scorpion struck at Spider-Man with his tail
but the
hero dodged, allowing the Scorpion to stab the control panel and run
the electrical feedback through him. He was knocked out by the feedback
and fell
to the floor in a heap. He was presumably taken back to his cell
while further charges were filed.
Dan
Gilvezan was the credited voice actor for Scorpion.
No origin for Scorpion is given so there's nothing
to indicate he got his powers via a J. Jonah Jameson-backed experiment (like on Earth-616 - Proto-Man).
Also, when the Scorpion blows a hole in the wall, we
see it's daylight
outside, yet when he knocks Spider-Man through it shortly after, it
suddenly turns
into night. When we cut back to the fight, it's daylight again.
No
idea why the cops allowed him to wear his costume in prison with the
weapons ready.
Scorpion's eye
color was impossible to determine, as he was only ever seen with a
visor covering his eyes. -- Proto-Man
