Green Goblin


BIO:

Norman Osborn, known as the Green Goblin, is a wealthy CEO who becomes a powerful, insane villain after using a strength serum. He uses a glider and pumpkin bombs to fight his main rival, Spider-Man, whose secret identity as Peter Parker he learns. This dynamic creates a deeply personal war between them. The Goblin causes great pain to Spider-Man and his friends. In the Marvel universe, Green Goblin is also known for his clashes with heroes like Iron Man and Captain America, and he fights fellow villains like Doctor Octopus to see who leads the criminal underworld. Later, Norman tries a new role as a fake hero during the "Dark Reign" era. He leads the Dark Avengers and calls himself the Iron Patriot. Heroes like Spider-Man and the New Avengers work hard to stop his evil plans and expose his madness to the world.

For some reason, I always imagined Green Goblin appearing in MVC1 or MVC2. He just seemed like he'd be an instant solid assist character, flying in to cause some mayhem. In the years / decades following MVC2, Capcom stopped making Marvel fighting games. It was then that I thought, Green Goblin will probably never appear in a fighting game. Underrated characters like him, or difficult-to-animate-and-do-correctly characters like him, don't usually have a good chances of making it to a fighting game.

Fast forward 3 decades later and a crazy thing like Marvel Tokon comes into existence. Goblin looks insane in-game, wow! It sure is a good time to still be a fighting game fan and a Marvel fan. We are still here and eating well. Arc System Works is creating an amazing game and using Marvel characters I never thought I'd see in a proper fighting game. Spider-Man 1 movie costume please. >:D
