Humberto Ramos Green Goblin

Some of you know I'm an avid Humberto Ramos fan. With his work on Spider-man, to his own comics like Crimson and Out There. And a while back they started showing pictures of Ramos styled Spidey toys. Spider-man And Green Goblin. Now Ramos' Green Goblin is by far my favorite, the expression, and detail is amazing.



one of the covers, I suggest picking up the comics to see something even more amazing within the pages.

And for the toy....



Anyways. I looked at every toy store, and Wal Mart from here to Rochester. No one had Green Goblin, nor Spidey. SO I hopped on Ebay. I found Goblin... For 30 bucks. Come to find out, Goblin was packed 1 per case in a case of 35. Each store ordered about 1 case, anyone working for the toy stores got first dibs. So the price on Goblin was kicking high. I ended up finding a BUY IT NOW for 12 bucks. 12! Plus the 7 for shipping & Handling....I wasn't to broke in the wallet. But it's way worth it. This is by far my favorite Spider-Man figure ever. Now if only they'd make a Venom styled from Ramos...



....Done bragging....

How can you not like that GG? What, do you like the movie one better? I like how it shows how far Osborn really went to just try and hurt Parker. The story line is one of the best Goblin Vs Spider-Man stories so far. It goes a lot deeper, it becomes more of a 'Norman vs. Peter' thing. And the dialog is great...

Goblin: You know, I wasn't always going to be the Green Goblin...When I started out, I was going to call myself "Mister Coffee." God...Can you imagine how weird the last few years would've been if I'd done that?

(Next panel shows A beat up Goblin and a beat up Peter sitting together...)

Both: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Peter: Ah-heheheh...Look out kids...It's Mister Coffee and his latte' of Doom!
Goblin: Ahahahaha! Oh God, Please, Stop, hahahah, my ribs...
Peter:....Norman...I keep having this dream....
Goblin: What kind of dream, Peter?
Peter: The same one over and over again: I don't know what it means, and there's no one I can confide in. No one but you. You're the only one who can possible understand...

The "Return of The Goblin" Arc is amazing. It goes deep into the past with Gwen Stacey, and answers some serious questions that have been around since Gwen died.

Peter: Not a day goes by without thinking about killing you for what you did. Not one single day where I don't think about hating you. That's what I'm supposed to do, hate you. But I don't.

I suggest you people pick it up..


Yeah, I like how he makes Venom. The current storyline has the symbiot leaving Brock because Brock has cancer, and it tries to find it's true-perfect host. Spider-Man.

But just the stuff with Venom is great, no artist has ever captured Venom as It really is, overpowering, dark, gooie, etc. He makes Venom seem what he's supposed to be like...Scary.
