What is the most heinous thing Norman Osborn has ever done?

[USERNAME TAKEN]

Sleeping with Gwen Stacy and getting her knocked up.

How has this not be retconned out yet? It has to be easily the absolute worst decision in Spider-Man editorial history. I also cringe when the words "Sins Past" are uttered.

I think if Marvel ever revisits the event we’ll find out that she was Drugged, Hypnotized, Goblinized or something. ( IF it happened at all ) There’s No Way she was saving herself all that time for Pete, and then slept with Norman on a whim. She was a Rape Victim!

Nah,i am sure she liked it.I mean,no woman can resist Osborn's haircut.It's so bizzare,it's hypnotic....

[Scott Taylor]

I don't think people would care as much about Peter "cheating" on Gwen as they do about Gwen "cheating" on Peter. Gwen doesn't have to be this uninterrupted virgin goody two-shoes for the story of her and Pete's romance to work.

Yes! You see, Hypnotized. I knew it! I just didn’t realize the evil instrument of his deception was his.. Hair .?.

Seriously,i would love that as a secondary power of Norman Osborn.

"Goblin formula gave me strength,but my haircut make me laid!!!"

I said Killing Gwen Stacy because in my mind Sins Past never happened. Whenever someone tries to tell me it really did I just cup my ears and say La La La La La Not My Gwen LOL

But if you undo "Sins Past", you undo Norman admitting that he wanted to kill Gwen. All you are left with is his account of how he just threw her off the bridge just to frighten Spidey and how he intended to catch her before Peter interrupted by grabbing her with his web line and snapping her neck.

Making Gwen's death more accidental and more of Peter's doing than Norman's.

But Norman intentionally went out of his way to kill Baby May. Which was simply despicable.

True. And I wouldn't really put it past the Ditko era Gwen to do something outrageous like sleep with Norman on a whim.

[E. Wilson]

I'm really curious about the "sleeping with Gwen" responses. Icky? Sure. But it wasn't rape, and we have no evidence it was part of some larger scheme. So...what makes him any more heinous than Hugh Hefner?

(Granted, his treatment of Gwen after he found out she was his Baby-momma was pretty loathsome, as well as his plans for the mini-goblins, but that's a separate issue.)

[Zombies8MyDingo]

Giving Harry the same haircut.

Sure, that has worked for decades.

and how he intended to catch her before Peter interrupted by grabbing her with his web line and snapping her neck.

Now, we don’t believe Osborn for a second on this do we?

No, Pete tried to Save her; the Goblin threw her off the bridge.

Yes, now this one I have to give you.
