I have remained mostly unspoiled for Spider-Man despite the deliberate antics of some inconsiderate people on Tumblr. Hopefully, my pre-ordered game should arrive tomorrow and then I can get to sharing my thoughts on how the game portrays Harry! But until then… I have a few theories on some of the things we might see… Read More Some last-minute Spider-Man 2 predictions
A “photo taken moments before disaster” of Harry and Peter smiling and seeming happy! Of course, this has its origin in the comics, where a picture of Harry and Peter in happier times appears as the very last panel after Harry’s death. The new pic from Insomniac’s game makes me think of this rather rare… Read More A new picture of Harry Osborn and Peter Parker in Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2
This is an interesting but fairly insubstantial comic from Gerry Conway, aka the guy who killed Gwen in the first place, and Jody Houser. I really like the art by Ramon Bachs, but the story is just a little thin, and also not really all that dark. Peter dies saving Gwen Stacy from her death… Read More Harry Osborn in What If? Dark: Spider-Gwen
Greetings from 11pm my time! Did I stay up to go through every frame of the just-dropped trailer of Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2 and make note of all the great Harry content? You bet I did! That’s what you gotta do if you run a blog for your favourite fictional character! This trailer has me so… Read More The Spider-Man 2 trailer is here, and Harry Osborn is Venom
I’ve been neglecting this blog of late because of my own mental health issues but I’m trying to get back into it again. Where better to start than the story arc where Harry gets out of rehab, I guess? Yep, ASM #105 is the first time we see Harry after his overdose. His appearance on… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #105-110: Harry Osborn Returns From Rehab (1972)
You know, there actually aren’t that many fan artworks of 616 Harry, which is why I’m always delighted when a good one comes along. Check out this gorgeous Parksborn art by tumblr user jessica-gru! Every aspect of it is perfect.
It’s here! Finally! You ready? First of all we meet the villain of our story, Kraven, who’s hanging out in a big jungle. He kills a dude with a bad haircut who I’m not sure we know and then heads to New York for “the hunt.” Oooh! I’m Kraven more of this. Six months later… Read More Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 gameplay trailer gives some hints to the plot
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 (also known as Sony’s Spider-Man 2, Insomniac’s Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2 PS5, or just plain The Spider-Man Game) is TANTALIZINGLY close but we know almost nothing about the plot! However I’ve seen a lot of fans speculate that Harry Osborn will, alas, probably not make it to a Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 if there… Read More Is Harry Osborn going to die in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2?
It is 1971 and a strict code mandates what can and cannot be depicted in comics. Think like… What Disney has going on at the moment except ten times worse. No swearing, no nudity, no defying authority, no zombies, no blood, no “sexual abnormalities”, no “sex perversion”, no sex at all in fact, no excessive… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #95-98: How Harry Osborn Changed Comics Forever
Man, I haven’t done a re-read post since September! Sorry about that. As it turns out, it’s actually time for a crossover! During February-March 1970 Harry popped up in the pages of Captain America, written by Stan Lee and drawn by Gene Colan. It’s hard to work out exactly where these appearances fit in with… Read More Captain America #137-138 (1971)
