The Goblin Glider or Wing is a small jet-powered wing aircraft used as the mode of transportation by both Hobgoblin and Green Goblin. Purple in color, it features a bat-like head on its front.
Technology[]
The glider is a single-person flying platform that can attain high speeds, with the controls operated by foot. There are also push-button switches located behind the glider's head, one of which operates directed-energy weapons from its "eyes" that can melt through glass. This glider is light-weight and can be carried by hand if necessary.
The glider could be docked atop and operated in tandem with a larger, more advanced Goblin Wing, giving the pilot access to increased firepower and maneuverability.
History[]
The glider was designed for Hobgoblin by Norman Osborn, who wanted him to assassinate Wilson Fisk. When his employment was terminated following his failure, Hobgoblin took the glider away with him. After initally betraying Osborn to side with Fisk, the Kingpin of crime, Hobgoblin returned to Osborn to make a deal and obtained the larger, more powerful Goblin Wing.
Other gliders were kept in Oscorp Industries. When an accident turned Norman into Green Goblin he used another glider.
At one point, Green Goblin fought Hobgoblin with each using their own gliders and wings. Though evenly matched, Green Goblin used Norman's memories and enhanced abilities to overcome the other.
When Harry Osborn became the second Green Goblin he used another glider.
Peter Parker was investigating Green Goblin's hideouts when he was trapped by Punisher who thought he was the goblin. Peter used a glider to escape.
Harry used his glider to attack the wedding of Peter and Mary Jane Watson, but was defeated.
