The Green Goblin is a supervillain who appears in the comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Steve Ditko, and first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #14 (July 1964). At this time his identity was unknown, but he proved popular and reappeared in later issues, which made a point of his secret identity. Although many characters have taken up this identity, Norman Osborn is the original and most well-known Green Goblin.

Osborn was originally an amoral industrialist head of Oscorp and father of Spider-Man's best friend, Harry Osborn, who took a serum which enhanced his physical abilities and intellect but also drove him to insanity. He adopted a Halloween-themed appearance, dressing in a goblin costume, riding on a bat-shaped Goblin Glider, and using an arsenal of high-tech weapons, notably grenade-like Pumpkin Bombs, to terrorize New York City.

Gwen Stacy

The Green Goblin is one of Spider-Man's most persistent foes, and many consider him to be one of the archenemies of Spider-Man, being responsible for numerous tragedies in Spider-Man's life, such as the death of his girlfriend Gwen Stacy. After the Green Goblin killed Gwen Stacy, writer Gerry Conway decided that the Goblin had to pay a heavy price. Osborn accidentally caused his own death in the course of a fight against Spider-Man. Others, such as Harry Osborn, later adopted the Green Goblin identity, and writer Roger Stern later introduced the Hobgoblin to replace the Green Goblin as Spider-Man's archenemy.

The Green Goblin is armed with a variety of bizarre devices. He travels on his bat-shaped Goblin Glider, an incredibly fast and maneuverable rocket glider equipped with various armaments. Other weapons the Goblin uses include incendiary Pumpkin Bombs, smoke and gas-emitting grenades resembling ghosts and jack-'o'-lanterns, razor-edged boomerang-like throwing weapons, resembling bats, and gloves woven with micro-circuited filaments which channel pulsed discharges of electricity at nearly 10,000 volts. He wears a green costume underneath bulletproof chainmail with an overlapping purple tunic. His mask has a built-in gas filter to keep him safe from his own gasses.

How we first met Spider-Man

introducing Spider-Man for the
first Time

The 15th issue of the Amazing Adult Fantasy (a science fiction-fantasy anthology) which was published in Aug. 1962 has a big importance because that is the issue which introduced Spider-Man for the first time. Spider-Man was created by writer-editor Stan Lee and writer-artist Steve Ditko. During the first sketches, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko was designing Spider-Man to be a new kind of superhero, one who would be a teenager, but not a sidekick, and one who would have everyman doubts, neuroses and money problems.

Sales for Amazing Fantasy #15 proved to be one of Marvel's highest at the time and The Amazing Spider-Man was quickly launched to capitalize on the new character's apparent popularity. Although the interior artwork was by Steve Ditko alone, Lee rejected Ditko's cover art and commissioned Jack Kirby to pencil a cover that Ditko inked.
