Episode #12 - The Hobgoblin, Part 2
Original Airdate - May 27, 1995
When Aunt May is slightly injured
by one of the Hobgoblin's pumpkin bombs during the kidnapping of Harry,
Spider-Man enters the fray with a vengeance. After several battles, the trail
leads Peter to Oscorp and Harry's own father.
Review:
Following exactly where part 1 left off Spidey clashes with Hobgoblin in style,
meaning that once again, the animation was spectacular. The story had a lot
going for it, as it all seemed to tie in with each other, as the episode
reflected the choices each of the central characters made.
Spider-Man perusing the Hobgoblin in a blinding rage instead of being there for
his ill Aunt, Kingpin being stupid enough to trust a man who tried to kill him a
few hours ago and Osborn using Spider-Man to fight his battles for him and
Hobgoblin, now king of crime central believes himself untouchable, with Spidey
sending him crashing down to earth, in what was actually a very good fight
scene, despite minimal, if any fighting being allowed to take place.
I've always liked the Hobgoblin, I'm glad to see he didn't get shafted in this
series, as he has done in the comics since they (stupidly) brought back Norman
Osborn. It was great to see him animated, and with Mark Hamills fantastic voice
work, they didn't go to far wrong.
