The Spider-Man Playstation game (let’s call it Spider-Man PS4 to avoid confusion, though I gather its universe designation is Earth-1048) presents one of my favourite takes on Harry. Even though he doesn’t show up in the flesh until the end we do learn a lot about him from environmental storytelling. There’s some great easter eggs… Read More Harry Osborn in Spider-Man PS4: References and easter eggs!
In a recent interview Andrew Garfield got talking about how badly he wanted his version of Spider-Man to be bisexual, something I think a lot of people (including me!) would have liked very much. God bless Andrew, he’s been pushing for this for years. Back in 2013 he told Entertainment Weekly, “What if MJ is… Read More Edge of Spider-Geddon #4: The one where Peter Parker actually (probably) is into guys
Spectacular Spider-Man Magazine #2 follows on from Amazing Spider-Man #66, but how we got to this point is a little confusing! Last time we saw Norman, Harry was searching the city for him while he lurked in one of his supervillain lairs. Norman’s memory of being the Green Goblin had clearly returned, but here it… Read More Spectacular Spider-Man Magazine #2 (1968)
Where we left off, Norman was slowly regaining his memories of being the Green Goblin! And that forms the basis of this new little arc for Harry. Of course, it’ll evolve into something much bigger later on… Harry pops up briefly in #62. While Spider-Man fights Medusa and angsts about his breakup with Gwen, Norman’s… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #62-66 (1968)
The distant sounds of ASM #74 are still ringing in my ears, so how about we take a look at the first time Harry came back from the dead? Yep, the first time. This almost completely unknown story showed up at the turn of the millennium in Amazing Spider-Man Annual #2000. It was a strange… Read More Amazing Spider-Man Annual 2000
So – spoilers ahead- Let’s get the big thing out of the way first. Post-BND Harry was a clone, as far as we know, and now he’s dead. (See below.) The who, wheres and whys of that, Spencer has not divulged. Post-BND Harry says he’s a clone but we see no real evidence of that… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #74: A reprehensible mess
With tomorrow’s ASM likely tackling the now infamous Harry-Peter-robot parents affair, let’s take a trip back to the mid-90s to explore the first time its aftermath was tackled in-depth! This is a very obscure Harry story, not least because he doesn’t technically appear in it, and also one of the very few co-written by a… Read More Spectacular Spider-Man Annual #14: Cycles and Circles (1994)
ASM #74, the conclusion to the Kindred Saga as they’re calling it, is due out shortly. The preview dropped the other day and it’s very Harry-heavy, so let’s unpick it! If nothing else this will help get the taste of the utterly nonsensical ASM #73 out of my mouth. We begin with a flashback to… Read More ASM #74 Preview: The devil’s in the details
Not art this time… or is it? This was posted by neverwasastoryofmorewhoa, and it’s a comic connection I’ve never seen made before. A beautiful juxtaposition. I love it so much.
What a tangled web we weave! The story so far: Peter was being menaced by the Kingpin’s goons, George Stacy was brainwashed by the aforementioned Kingpin, Gwen was distraught, and MJ had a job working at a club that was secretly a front for the Kingpin’s operations. Here, let Harry fill ya in. Harry drives… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #61 (1968)
