I think everyone knew Norman would be back sooner rather than later in Amazing Spider-Man, the actual question was, is he gonna be good Norman or evil Norman? Well, yesterday the plot synopsis for ASM#7 and #8 (meant to come out in July) dropped and, ur, I’m not sure? Maybe Peter will be doing these… Read More Osborn-related spoilers from upcoming comics

Amazon has listed for a collection of #1-#5 for January 2023.… Read More The Gwen Stacy mini is coming back!
According to my Sources (i.e…. the internet) poor Ben Reilly is the most recent member of Spider-Man’s supporting cast to have been character-assassinated and made villain of the year. I’m sorry, Ben fans! I know exactly how you feel. But that got me wondering about the times when Ben accessed his Peter-memories (well, his own… Read More Harry Osborn and Ben Reilly
This book was published in 2004 and it’s full of fascinating tidbits about the world of Spider-Man. And I’m guessing if you’re here, you want to see what the Spider-Man creators had to say about Harry!

A few days ago it was announced there would be a Werewolf By Night Disney+ movie! A tie-in to the upcoming Moon Knight I’m guessing. But didya know there was a 2018 comic where Harry was (sort of) Werewolf By Night himself? Goblin By Night, in fact! This happened in Infinity Wars: Arachknight, which takes… Read More When Harry Osborn was Werewolf By Night
It is 1969, we’re onto issue #74 of ASM, and Harry has grown a mustache! He’s obsessed with it. Peter is worrying about Dr Connors and far too busy to focus on a little thing like his friend’s culturally problematic facial hair. (Little history of Fu Manchu for you there.) Harry’s reaction here is so… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #74-82 (1969): The Mustache Saga!
This one is a beautifully written tumblr post by brawltogethernow. “This conflict makes Harry’s life unbearable. It kills Harry’s best friend and his dad and then it takes him down too before he’s 30, and he sees it coming the entire time. So anyway the triumph here is that Harry, with fierce deliberation, loves Peter… Read More Harry Highlights #4

It’s been several months now since the conclusion of Nick Spencer’s run on Amazing Spider-Man and the end of the Kindred Saga, as it’s called now. Am I still salty? Oh god I’m still salty. Here’s 12 questions I still have about the whole sorry show. Perhaps some of them will be answered one day?… Read More Twelve Questions I Still Have About the Kindred Saga
That’s a very hyperbolic title there isn’t it? Sorry. But even Tom Holland wants an Amazing Spider-Man 3 now, and I don’t, I really don’t. Just so we’re clear, I have no problems whatsoever with Andrew Garfield’s performance as Spider-Man in the Amazing series. Garfield is great! Emma Stone as Gwen was great too! No,… Read More Don’t #makeTASM3
