Iron Man ’s story is one of how a arm dealer and technical school power realise how much harm their technology has inflicted upon the world ; as such , good Iron Man villains tend to reflect these element . For instance , ruthless businesspersons like Obadiah Stane , Justin Hammer , and Feilong show what happens when those without Iron Man ’s scruples take his place of prominence in the technical school sector . instead , villains like Detroit Steel , Whiplash , and Crimson Dynamo illustrate the hazard of Iron Man applied science fall into the wrong hand or being capable to keep up with more modern systems .

Green Goblin meets both of these criteria . Norman Osborn is an infamously ruthless and sneaky businessperson , squelch those he see as threats or competitors without self-reproach . On the technological side , the Green Goblin blood serum , Goblin Glider , andthe Gold Goblin suitare all foundation that rival Iron Man ’s own designs . As a pitiless business enterprise mogul more than willing to abuse his technological innovations for wanton devastation , Green Goblin is a thematically perfect drear mirror to Iron Man .

Modular canisters have become iconic " pumpkin turkey " epitome ; the repulsor - power Goblin Glider put back the Iron Man suit ’s self - actuation organisation as the science behind the arc reactor is not yet realize well enough to safely invert - engineer it . Harry is fully placeable as the Green Goblin by the end of the chronological succession , while having only made a few pinch to the Iron Man system .

Norman Osborn acts as a foil to Iron Man on both the business level and the technological level , capable to easy recreate Iron Man - level designs ; yet instead of square off against an equal businessperson and inventor , he is the contender of a forever hapless photographer . WhileSpider - Man’sstruggles against Norman Osborn bear elements of full-bodied vs. poor , the two characters are at long last too dissimilar to be thematic foils . Instead , the Ultimate Universe makes a strong case for why theGreen Goblinwould have been a just nemesis forIron Manall along .
