How intense and personal the feud between Peter and Norman is, it's impossible to claim any of the other Goblins is "best", if anyone else came close, it was Harry.

Liking Kingsley over Norman is really choosing "plot armor" as your main priority in a villain, because Norman gets to properly lose fights and go to prison. He originally had that plot armor, and the brainwashed dupes, to keep the "who is Hobgoblin?" mystery going. We know who he is, he doesn't need that plot armor anymore, he doesn't need to always get away except that his fans will REEEEEEEEEEE if he doesn't.

Someone needs to take the time to flesh out his backstory and motivations. Of the three main Hobgoblins, he's the most popular, but the least developed as a character.

Kingsley knows when it's time to retreat. Norm keeps escaping after being defeated because nobody ever thinks to detain him.

That's the point with the Hobgoblin and Spider-Man. It's never personal. It's "just business."

Kingsley is always in it for the money. That's his motivation. He doesn't want the world. He doesn't want to devote his entire time to squash a hero. He just wants run a business via crime.

He's basically the Hood done right. Unlike Robbins, Kingsley is a man with a plan. A good plan. He doesn't waste his time fully seeking out the heroes unless by design or backed into a corner.

Unlike others as well, he knows when to throw in the towel. He doesn't stay until the last minute. He knows when he's bested and turns tail. Why he was only caught ONCE in his over thirty-year career.

Let that sink in. How many times has Norman been caught? Three? Four?

Kingsley still is the more slippery of the two. He also knows when a losing battle is possible. So send in a dupe.

And there is where Kingsley is most dangerous. For the Hobgoblin's schemes doesn't hurt Peter, it hurts those around him.

Harry? His relapse into becoming the Green Goblin again in the mid-90s is because of Kingsley.
J Jonah? Forced him to look deep into his soul and realize how much of a fuck up he was in creating all those super villains. He resigned as editor from the Bugle because of it.
Betty? He's made her life a living hell due to the mental fatigue of her late husband being brainwashed to think he was the original Hobgoblin (a retcon, but a better one). Even when she devoted her entire time to putting Kingsley in prison. HE GOT AWAY.
Flash? Made his life a living hell by making it seem he was the original. Add to the fact his feelings for Betty only compounded the mental fatigue on Ned which resulted in his further madness.
The Urichs? Phil being where he's at is because of Kingsley. It's running into the Hobgoblin that caused him to finally snap. And that further mental fatigue when Kingsley boxed him into a corner has lead to where he's at now.

That's not even the amount of trolling, Kingsley has done to Norman. Think about it. Kingsley has made the identity his own and is still among the living. Norman ahs tried twice to kill him, and another when in control of H.A.M.M.E.R. tried to freeze the only thing Kingsley cares about-- money.

And every time he's failed. The fact is Kingsley is what Norman should have been if he didn't get so goddamn personal with Peter.

He was cool in the 80's as the goblin that had his shit together and could outsmart and outmatch Spider-Man and always get away.

But he was not TOTALLY HARDCORE EXTREME! enough for the 90's so they made him into a useless mook and replaced him with Demogoblin, and then brought Normin back when classic stuff was popular again.

Hobby never really recovered.

That's part of why I'll never understand his appeal, it's not that I dislike him or think he's a bad character, I just don't get what makes him different than all the other petty Spidey foes who are basically super powered gangsters

The fact that so few of Spidey's foes who go above and beyond that level is why those very ones are the ones who get top billing, because they stand out as more than crooks in costumes

The difference is he gets away scot free and gets the money. Making even a defeat where the hero bested him look more like a victory. How may costumed crooks can say that in comics?
>>
Well his new shtick is making an underground marketplace for supersuits. He sells random street level hero and villain suits to people, and when they die he recollects and resells them to other idiots that want to put on a super eel or bee suit and go rob a bank.

I guess they are playing with the whole fashion designer aspect of the guy now. Seems very different from the mafia enforcer guy he used to be.

>>93488801
He is more like a self insert oc in how he acts most of the time. He is genre savvy and tends to get away after robbing something, tangling with Spider-Man and then escapes to go spend the money on a private island somewhere.

There is so many Easter Eggs in that mini of his I wouldn't be surprised.
