Green Goblin

The Green Goblin is the alias of several fictional supervillains appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The first and best known incarnation, Norman Osborn, created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, is generally considered to be the archenemy of Spider-Man. Originally a manifestation of chemically induced insanity, others such as Norman's son Harry Osborn would take on the persona. The Green Goblin is a Halloween-themed supervillain whose weapons resemble bats, ghosts and jack-o'-lanterns and in most incarnations uses a hoverboard or glider to fly.

Comics journalist and historian Mike Conroy writes of the character: "Of all the costumed villains who've plagued Spider-Man over the years, the most flat-out unhinged and terrifying of them all is the Green Goblin." The Green Goblin has appeared in several films including 2002's Spider-Man with Willem Dafoe as Norman Osborn, and 2004's Spider-Man 2, 2007's Spider-Man 3 and 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 with Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn. The 2007 film also portrayed James Franco as a version of the Green Goblin character.

 * Norman Osborn / Green Goblin and Harry Osborn appear in Marvel's Spider-Man: Webbed Champion, voiced by Jeffrey Combs (replacing Josh Keaton in Season 1) and Max Mittelman respectively. As in the Canon version of the series, Harry is depicted as a hero and supporting character while Norman remains an antagonist. Both maintain their story from Season 1 to Season 2 episode "Between Ock and a Hard Place". Presumed dead since the events of "Hobgoblin, Part 2", Norman is revealed to have survived and gone into hiding with some of the technology he kept for himself from Oscorp. It is also revealed that he played a role in the deaths of Peter Parker's parents by turning them over to the Red Skull in retaliation of the couple having not agreed to work for him at Oscorp, inadvertently leaving Peter and his sister Teresa as orphans. Later reappearing in "Seeds of Life" as the Green Goblin, Osborn allied himself with Red Skull and his Hydra forces once more by working on human cloning using the cloning research he collected from Jackal. He was eventually defeated by Spider-Man and Teresa / Stormranger, who teleported him back to New York. There, Osborn was devastated and enraged to know of his son Harry's death, and plotted revenge on Spider-Man and his friends. He consequently failed, and ended up defeated by the Champions while AC-5 used footage collected by Stormranger to expose Osborn's crimes and true colors to all over the city, leading to Osborn's life arrest, and the end of Oscorp. Despite not appearing in the Season's last episodes, it is mentioned by Tigra that she induced Osborn with a mind spell which caused him to permanently hallucinate of revenants of the people he persecuted and betrayed, including Peter's parents Richard and Mary, and his own son Harry, leaving Osborn traumatized for life.
 * Appearing as a supporting character, Harry appears in "City of Heroes, Part 2: Where There’s Smoke", where he requests help from Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Liz Allan / Firestar in stopping Mysterio from stealing Oscorp's products for his plans. He later appears in "Sons of Fathers", on which he helps Peter stop Donald Menken from selling Oscorp technology to Hydra, although Harry ends up feeling traumatized to hear of his father's shocking role in the deaths of his best friend's parents and Norman's alliance with the Red Skull. Ultimately, he sacrificed himself to save Peter and his sister Teresa by destroying an Oscorp facility to prevent Hydra from obtaining Oscorp's technology. A funeral was later held for him and attended to by Peter and his friends, including a tearful Liz.
 * Norman Osborn / Green Goblin returns in the show's Disney+ TV movie Marvel's Superhero Adventures: Infinity War. While he has no dialogues, his vocal effects were provided by Fred Tatasciore. It is revealed that, sometime after his arrest, Tyler Hayward and his henchmen liberated Osborn from prison to turn into a living weapon for the Thunderbolt program; using an mind control device installed in his brain and a combination of the Super-Soldier serum with a small sample of Red Hulk's DNA, Hayward transformed Osborn into a mindless winged goblin-like monster (the new Green Goblin form is based on the Ultimate Green Goblin featured in the 2012-2017 Ultimate Spider-Man TV series). A member of the Thunderbolts, Green Goblin was sent to dispose of Thanos and his forces, but was overwhelmed by Thanos's Klyntauri, and converted into a brainwashed cyborg member of Thanos's New Black Order. In the film's Present day events, Goblin is sent to ambush Wiccan, Gamora, Gwen Stacy / Ghost-Spider, and Captain Marvel on Vormir, where the Soul Stone is located in. They fight him, and (following the Stonekeeper's advice that the Soul Stone can only be earned by sacrificing a mortal with a guilty, evil soul) exact to throw him into the abyss. They succeed when Wiccan (deducing that Norman's essence is dormant within the Goblin's mind) forces Goblin to reexperience repressed memories of Norman's son Harry, causing the Goblin to freak out, which allows Ghost-Spider and Gamora to rip his wings off, and Captain Marvel to blast him into the abyss to his death, earning Wiccan's group the Stone.
 * Norman Osborn also appears in Marvel: All New, All Different Chronicles, voiced by Jeffrey Combs. Still the owner of Oscorp, Osborn is also the benefactor of Midtown High School. Despite worshiped by his son Harry and other students, he is otherwise hated by Peter Parker, who blames him for the incident in Oscorp which led to Uncle Ben's death. Osborn also carries a obsessive hatred for Reed Richards / Mr. Fantastic, and strongly disapproves of Peter's decision to drop out of Midtown High to enroll at Richards's school Baxter Institute. From the episode Living Brainstorm, Osborn's brain (and later his mind and body) is possessed by the spirit of the Goblin, slowing transforming him into a sadistic psychopath. The transformation is completed once Goblin has Osborn ingest a serum which hideously mutates his appearance, purging Norman Osborn's persona completely, and letting the Goblin in full control, and therefore becoming the Green Goblin.
 * The Goblin (also voiced by Combs) is an sadistic Dark Elf whose consciousness was absorbed by the Living Brain after a failed assault on Earth. Taking control of the Living Brain, the Goblin was soon accidentally reactivated by two A.I.M. agents and went for a rampage before he was defeated by Spider-Man, Mister Fantastic and Edith, but not before the Goblin transferred his consciousness into some bits of Norman Osborn's brain, slowly taking over his body.
 * Harry Osborn also appears, voiced by Sam Riegel. In the series, he is the class president of Midtown High School, and a subordinate at Oscorp. Contrary to most incarnations where Peter and Harry are best friends, Peter is shown to have more distant relationship with Harry in the show, as Peter blames Harry's father for Uncle Ben's death and Harry (much like his father) does not approve Peter's decision of dropping out of Midtown High to enroll at Baxter Institute, and spent some of his time trying (but failing) to convince Peter to re-enroll at Midtown High. As a supervillain and adversary of Spider-Man, he secretly operates as the Hobgoblin, a super-criminal equipped with an armored suit created by Oscorp which includes a glider, pumpkin bombs and a heat sword. He remains unaware of his father's true colors until Spider-Man exposes Norman's involvement with the deaths of Peter's parents, among other crimes Norman committed.
