Green Goblin is one of the most well known supervillains of
Spider-Man. Creators
Stan Lee and
Steve Ditko launched him into the pages of
Marvel's The Amazing Spider-Man #14 in July 1964. The first incarnation of the Goblin was Norman Osborn, an industrialist and head of Oscorp who took a formula which he hoped would enhance his physical / mental abilities but it drove him to insanity, turning him into the Green Goblin. However, the lab accident did give him superhuman strength, increased speed, endurance and regeneration (like
Wolverine). He is a
Halloween-themed villain with weapons such as jack-o-lanterns, ghosts and bats. He flies around on a rocket glider which is accessorized with an assortment of gadgets and weapons. He terrifies the city and remains one of
Spidey's toughest enemies. The Mighty Mugg above portrays the
Goblin in his typical green / purple suit, on his glider and holding a pumpkin bomb.
