Harry Osborn

**Harold Theopolis "Harry" Osborn** was the son of Norman Osborn, former head of Oscorp, and best friend and former enemy of Peter Parker. Harry had dropped out of lots of high schools prior to attending Midtown High. There, he met Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. Eventually, having graduated high school, he continued his friendship with Peter and MJ, the latter with whom he fell into a relationship. He eventually saw the vigilante Spider-Man with his father's dead body, and believed him to be his father's killer.

Eventually, he took over Oscorp, and affiliated with scientist Doctor Otto Octavius. Having grown sick of his best friend siding with Spider-Man, he got at him, ending their friendship. He made a deal with Doctor Octavius, now going by the name Doctor Octopus, who promised if he brought the tritium for his fusion reactor, he would bring him Spider-Man. Harry agreed the deal, and he got Spider-Man, whom Osborn nearly killed, but in a turn of events, found out he was Peter. After this, he found out his father was the Green Goblin.

Having taken the Goblin Serum, he obtained his father's strength, and created his own glider and armour. He fought Peter with these improvements, but instead suffered from a loss of memory, thus believing Peter was still his friend. He eventually remembered what happened, and threatened MJ to end things with Peter. Eventually, they put their differences aside and battled the villains Sandman and Eddie Brock/Venom, dying to save Peter's life.
