Does Marvel celebrates their shows' anniverseries?

Does Marvel or die hard fans celebrate the shows' anniverseries?for eg: if X-Men TAS came into being on 1990 and it got cancelled in 1997, so it must be the show's 10th anniversery,right?I see DC fans are celebrating Batman TAS' 15th Anniversery.Does Marvel celebrates their shows anniverseries just like DC as well?

No.

But perhaps we should... That's a thing that makes me go "hmmmm."

In general, we tend to schedule our updates (interviews, new sections, retrospectives) around movies. For example, when Spiderman 3 was released, you saw a bevy of Spidey-related interviews and retrospectives.

Just because we do not celebrate anniversaries, does not mean we provide any less content.

I'm actually quite surprised Marvel hasn't planned anything for the 15th anniversary of the X-Men cartoon - DC Comics didn't make a single mention of the 15th anniversary of Batman either, which is quite shocking considering how popular it was and still is.

Maybe for thier 20th...

Didn't Marvel celebrate the 25th[?] anniversary of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends earlier this year by releasing a special comic [which was pretty good, I might add!] for it?

Good point. You'd think both of those shows would garner a bit more attention, huh? They certainly deserve it...

[Spider-Man]

I think that most shows which are as old as the Marvel shows from the 1990s tend to be forgotten to make way for the newest incarnation. It's annoying just it seems to be part of the business. Disappointing too when you think about it.

Yes, they did. That seems to be the exception to the rule though.

It probably has something to do with the fact that Marvel doesn't own the rights to those cartoon's anymore.
