Who is the poor bastard Norman tossing a Pumpkin Bomb at?

Swordsman, Osborn killed him in the Siege prologue I think.

Humberto Ramos' variant for the Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus vol 2 out in January, I need to get it eventually when the price hopefully drops..

 

[Hobgoblin]

Always good to see the original costume again.

Anyone else dig the translucent yellow lenses Alex Ross draws on the Green Goblin?

They not only look cool, but they also protect Norman's eyes from the wind as he flies around on his glider.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I liked them!

I think they would work pretty well for the next time Green Goblin appears on the big screen.

 

[Hobgoblin]

I need a good idea for my jack o'lantern. Post your favorite pumpkin bomb designs here. The one's I've seen have been pretty mundane.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ You're making a Green Goblin Jack o'Lantern? Cool!

No, I'm hoping to use a pumpkin bomb design from the comics. Unfortunately, all of the pumpkin bomb designs that I've found online have been pretty basic. I guess I'll just copy a creepy one from online.

Happy Halloween everyone!

By the way, does anyone else want Norman to remember who Peter is again? This lack of remembering and loss of focus on Spider-Man has made Gobby...boring.

I do. To me, Green Goblin cannot be Spider-Man's archenemy without knowing a mutual knowledge of secret identities. The tension that their whole rivalry was based on came from that mutual knowledge. That, more than anything else, was the reason why Norman Osborn was Peter Parker's archenemy. Yeah, he still killed Gwen Stacy, and was behind the Clone Saga, but now he has no idea why he did these things.

^^ I remember that. It's been a while, but I do rmember clearly.

live action suggestion- Lily Hollister= Rashida Jones

Not a bad idea, but isnt Lily black?

I always wanted to see:
Michael Ironside as Norman Osborn
Jeremy Irons as Roderick Kingsley


They're too old now but I thought they looked a lot like their comic counterparts.

What do you think of the claim that the classic Green Goblin design can't be taken seriously, and the various Green Goblin redesigns we've had over the years as a result?

 

[Spidey_62]

Some preliminary designs Jean Paul Leon did of the Green Goblin for the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon. Seems like we we be getting a Green Goblin that is some sort of a physical transformation at least, like in the Ultimate comics. Actually not the 1st time this has been done in the cartoons, both of the 80s Spidey cartoon's had Osborn actually change into the Green Goblin. Whether the final design will look more classic or more hulkgoblin remains to be seen.

Really like the 1st design a lot, though. Hope they went with something more like that than the 2nd.

Agreed.
