    Norman Osborn was just another highly-successful scientist looking to push the envelope and create the Next Big Thing for the government to eventually take over and control as their own. Through genetic testing and using himself as a guinea pig, Osborn ended up creating the Next Bad Thing instead: The Green Goblin.

    In college, wherein he studies chemistry and electrical engineering, he meets his sweetheart Emily, gets married, and eventually has a son, Harry. In his adulthood, he co-founds a major firm with Dr. Mendel Stromm. Osborn finds that Stromm is embezzling from the company and then searches his possessions, discovering an experimental strength/intelligence enhancement formula. While he is researching his work, Emily becomes ill and dies. This tragedy pushes Osborn to work harder, and he barely has time for Harry. Unbeknownst to Norman, Harry has tampered with the formula beforehand, so when Osborn attempts to create the serum, it turns green and exploded in his face. The accident greatly increases his intelligence and strength, but also drives him insane.

    The first, current, and best-known Green Goblin is the alter ego of industrialist Norman Osborn. A serum that grants Osborn superhuman strength also drives him insane. Osborn adopts a Halloween themed appearance, dressing in a goblin costume and using an arsenal of high-tech weapons, notably grenade-like "Pumpkin Bombs" and a bat-shaped "goblin glider" to terrorize New York City. Ironically, his troubled son Harry is a close friend of Peter Parker, who is secretly Spider-Man. Having much impact in Spider-Man's life, the Green Goblin becomes his greatest enemy.
