It's always hard to forget. I just remember the two-part episode Cat & The Claw being the first episode. Then suddenly episodes like crazy. Suddenly it, Spider-Man, and X-Men on at Fox at the same time.

Thanks

>>93970931
Hobgoblin systematically improved and overhauled all of Osborn's old equipment and formula and he took great pains to conceal his identity, cover his tracks and not get caught. Osborn has since caught up but for a long time Hobgoblin was the top dog. He avoided going fucking nuts like Osborn and he did the coming back from the dead thing far better. He lacks Osborn's own genius or all consuming obsession with Spider-Man, he's far more mercantile, his ambitions more measured. With Green Goblin you're terrified with what he's going to do next, with Hobgoblin you know you're up against someone utterly ruthless but not someone willing to put money or comfort beneath something like vengeance.

Whoa. Thanks anon. But I will confess there's probably a bit more of Macendale like how he became a demon. I only got into Marvel comics when he got the Kraven juice in him.

So there's probably a bit more of Macendale.

>>93972221
Ok if any one has a list of more Macendale I'll add it

>>93972221
Wasn't the demon version a seperate character, Demogoblin? Or am i confusing him with someone else?

Basically, no. See Macendale realized right after becoming the Hobgoblin that the original had strength to go up against Spider-Man if he had too. Macendale realized he needed more and went down the Osborn route.

It only resulted in Harry splitting further into a mental breakdown and relapsed back into the Green Goblin. But.. Harry at this point had no idea of the Stromm formula so the battle was utterly futile for Macendale.

But this all happened during the Inferno, so a demon saw him and offered a bargain. He'd give him powers but the price would be he be bonded with a demon. Thinking he'd have control in said powers Macendale accepted and the demon was bonded to him.

The demon basically had full reigns to Macendale's body until a run-in with Ghost Rider. After that, a team-up with Dr. Strange, Spidey, and Moon Knight resulted in Macendale getting more control back until he fully expelled the demon. The Demon then became Demogoblin and carved his own goblin career in the 90s.

I added some more but there's more Macendale stuff then can fit on here.

Might as well just make a separate list for just him.

Wasn't the Red Skull that killed Peter's parents some bizarro Soviet knock-off who wore a cape?

Hobgoblin seems like he has much less of a purpose after Norman came back.

He worked as the guy who found all of Norman's old stuff and was the legacy villain character. Now he is more of a background character with no real reason to be around.

>>93975598
Yeah, that's why he retired (again). Slott of all people gave him a good niche by turning him into the guy who squats all dead villains' identities and licenses them out to wannabe-criminals.

>>93975664
Seems like he is now the villain fashion designer

Wait wut?

>>93976329
Well, Phil's Green Goblin series is the core of the character (and Cebulski's garbage Loners book for his sudden turn to evil), though he ain't the Hobgoblin in either of those things.

>>93976069

The thing is though. They asked for Phil's time as the Hobgoblin. Not as Green, Loner, or MC2 hero.

If there was a Green Goblin list then there be more of his heroic appearances along with his downfall in Loners.

I have doubts that this was supposed to be Roderick, but then again it was written by Bendis (maybe he forgot that Macendale is dead again?)

>>93978427

The hell? That sounds so Macendale than Kingsley. But then again that's Bendis.

Great now I will want to know the context more. Thanks anon. So going to search and download that comic now.

I have no idea why I expected Hopeless to do anything climactic. Either I'm very dumb or too blinded by my love for Kingsley. I guess it's both.
>>93978427
That does sound like Jason "bitter loser" Macendale. Then again, maybe it's Bendis being a hack again and shitting on characters he doesn't like like he did with Captain Britain.

Just to piggy-back on this guys explanation,

THIS
>>93970994
is not a mask. Jason Macendale's face was mutated and gross during his time merged with the demon.Dr. Strange even cast a spell on him so that he thought his face looked normal when he looked at it in a mirror. His Hobgoblin became really twisted and really religiously fanatical always raving about blasphemy and such.

Johnny Blaze, Spider-Man and Ghost Rider attacked him all at once (same issue as the image here) and something about that made Jason's connection to the demon unstable and eventually, they split.

Well on one hand, Hopeless was basically doing an alright job with Kingsley with the opening of the arc. It's just the finale he began acting so-- hands on and began wielding tech he hadn't ever at that point (a larger glider and began to attack Jessica with a flame sword until "Roman Reigns" came in to stop it then got cucked by Hopeless's self-insert).

Yep I remember that arc. But, I didn't want to fully talk about it because A.) Richard pulled an original Hobgoblin with Richard Fisk dupes. B.) Blood Rose the EXTREME ROSE. C.) It was more Richard Fisk arc, with him using Macendale to scratch that old Hobgoblin itch.

Basically, after blowing up the babysitter, Jessica waged a one-hero war on Kingsley's enterprise. She later was saved by babysitter who turned out to not be dead. Then having said babysitter be kidnapped by Kingsley forcing Jessica to save him.

She then took on a few of his goons and managed to de-glider Hobgoblin which leads to this.

Goddammit Bendis!

>>93977707
I loved how they hinted that Roderick was already pulling off his twin shenanigans this early in the game.

>>93978974
>the poorest Sinister Six EVER

Pretty stiff competition with Swarm's, Sandman's, and Macendale's.

>>93979064
Sandman's had Al Kraven, Mysterio II, Vulture, Electro, and Venom. It was an interesting line-up even if it turned out horribly.

Macendale's Sinister "Seven" was only put together so they could take out Kaine. It was still a fun brawl showing just how frightening Kaine was.

Swam's was more like a Sinister Syndicate but hey it used a bunch of Spidey villains we hadn't seen in awhile.

Bendis's Sinister Six?

Hobgoblin, Sandman, the Spot, Electro II, ????, and Bombshell. Like who leads it? Hobgoblin? No it can't be cause Bendis thinks of only the Macendale version. Sandman? Doubtful. The Spot? Like Bendis would give him a push?

No it's going to be Bombshell's Sinister Six. That by proxy make's it the absolute worst Sinister Six out of all of them.

>>93970931
>New-Goblin

>>93979248
>but hey it used a bunch of Spidey villains we hadn't seen in awhile.

And Melter and 8-Ball, for some reason.

Now that I think about it, they seem to have become the most prominent out of Roddy's villain knock-offs.

>>93979677

I'm surprised only Hopeless has gone with the Kingpin of Supervillain angle with Kingsley. He seems more good at it than say the Hood.

>>93979248
>Swam's was more like a Sinister Syndicate but hey it used a bunch of Spidey villains we hadn't seen in awhile.

Swarm led a Sinister Six? Who was on the team and when did this happen?

>>93980321

When Spider-Man became a teacher of the X-Men. You know that run where Sauron had a ray that could cure anyone but he wanted it only to make more dinosaur-people.

That run.

>>93980321
Swarm, Melter, 8-Ball, Delilah, Killer Shrike, and Squid.
