Yeah I liked the 90's series even if a few of the issues were a bit weak. They played up the psychological aspect well and they made Ryder a much more sympathetic guy, the trouble was they made The Creeper part of his character a bit too whacked out and bizarre considering Ditko's original was more of a ghoulish act (though with that costume you can certainly see why the idea of insanity goes hand in hand with many peoples thoughts on the character).

That said they tried to tie up the conflicting continuity that had built up over time and really tried to place Proteus more firmly in the role of arch enemy. I would have liked to see where the series could have gone after Ryder had reconciled with his other half or even if he would still view the Creeper as another half (it was suggested that he didn't actually have a second personality).
Either way it was a yet another version of the Creeper that was subsequently discarded amongst the continual mangling of the original.
