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.

Happy new year everyone! Appropriately, we enter a new year here too. Let’s look at Harry in Amazing Spider-Man #68, #70, and #71! 1968 saw Peter have a big confrontation with Norman Osborn in the pages of Spectacular Spider-Man Magazine, and this is very much on his mind as we shift sideways into Amazing Spider-Man.… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #68-71 (1968-1969)
We knew already that the chances of seeing Harry in the flesh in No Way Home were incredibly slim, what with the sexual abuse allegations against James Franco (2002-2007 Harry) and the fact that Dane Dehaan (2014 Harry) has indicated he doesn’t want to return to the franchise. But does the character get a mention,… Read More Does Harry Osborn get a mention in No Way Home?
I wasn’t completely sure where this fitted into continuity, but since Norman isn’t missing and Peter and Gwen are back together it appears to come after Spectacular Spider-Man Magazine #2.
