….not in real life, of course. In The Amazing Spider-Man: Spider-Versity #1, Norman seems to be up to his old tricks, but no, he’s teaching Miles, Ghost-Spider and all the other Spiders how to fight effectively against a Goblin. Jessica Drew nearly kicks his ass, as she should, but then Norman reveals that he’s still… Read More Harry gets his own statue
So as you no doubt know by now if you’ve read this comic, the ‘torn’ of the title refers in part to Peter being torn between Gwen and MJ, and MJ herself takes steps to remedy this. This comic is a FANTASTIC read for PeterMJ shippers (who have suffered much in the last few years)… Read More Harry Osborn in Amazing Spider-Man: Torn #5
Before we get to the Harry stuff there’s a Jameson panel I must share: As an ex-journalist it spoke to me. But it’s Harry we’re all here for. In Torn #3, he and Norman have a showdown and it’s glorious. This comic plays very fast and loose with continuity, but if we are sticking to… Read More Harry Osborn in Amazing Spider-Man: Torn #4
The man who drew some of the greatest ever Harry Osborn stories (and some of the greatest stories in general) has died at the age of 89. He left one hell of a legacy. I loved the way he drew Harry, and Peter, and especially Mary Jane. In my mind Buscema’s drawings are the default… Read More Sal Buscema passed away
Spider-Man: Torn is a comic set during Peter Parker’s college years, so Harry is there! Here he is in part one. He’s not involved in the action, though, which sees Peter go up against a mysterious woman named Evangeline who’s just transformed into a monster thanks to a magic book, and also has murdered two… Read More Harry Osborn in Amazing Spider-Man: Torn #2-3
Yesterday, December 13, was Harry’s birthday! Alas, I was doing Important Social Christmas Things all day and forgot to throw an update this blog’s way. But I DID post a birthday gifset for Harry on tumblr. This one is comparing him to the main character of one of Shakespeare’s most famous tragedies, Hamlet. I had… Read More Happy belated birthday, Harry
Now where were we? Gwen is targeting the other members of the Sinister Six, and in a pretty extreme way at that. An increasingly frazzled MJ doesn’t like this at all and gave Gwen a punch in the face for her efforts. “I just don’t know how proactive I should be in trying to smooth… Read More Harry Osborn in Ultimate Spider-Man #21-22
This comic came out on Wednesday and has already proven itself a total gem. It focuses on Peter’s college years, and so of course Harry and the gang play a role there. Harry isn’t in the comic much, which is totally fine since it’s not really about him, but what we do get is great.… Read More Harry Osborn in Amazing Spider-Man: Torn #1
A long-awaited moment for Harry (and Spider-Man in general) fans is here! The DeMatteis/Buscema Spectacular Spider-Man run is finally available to buy in omnibus format in the US! ….Unfortunately I am not in the US so I’ll have to wait. But what I can do in the meantime is read J.M. DeMatteis’s blog post about… Read More J.M. DeMatteis talks Harry
Yeah I know I’m way behind on these, so you get a two-for-one deal, yeah? Where we left off, Harry and Gwen and Peter were waging war against Kingpin, but Peter’s son Richard had just been captured by him. Black Cat led him into a trap. Luckily, we soon see how Richard got away: his… Read More Harry Osborn in Ultimate Spider-Man #19 – #20
