Initially when developing this series, the creative team were not allowed to do an origin episode and were prohibited from using Electro and The Sandman because James Cameron was trying to write and direct a theatrical "Spider-Man" movie which featured those elements. The movie was to feature high-school student Peter Parker obtaining his spider powers and characters named Carlton Strand and his morphing henchman Boyd, which were loosely based on Electro and Sandman, as the villains. However, the legal rights to the movie went into limbo after Carolco and Marvel filed Bankruptcy in 1996, this cleared the ability to do an full origin and use Electro and Sandman in the series. A full explanation of Spider-Man origin was done in Spider-Man: Sins of the Fathers Chapter 2: Make a Wish (1996) via flashback and although given a new identity, Electro eventually was able to make an appearance on this series in Season 5. However, the creative team were never able to get around to using Sandman which makes him the only major classic Spider-Man villain to have never appeared on the series.
