Untold Tales of Spider-Man #08, written by Kurt Busiek & illustrated by Pat Olliffe.
Ah, family.
Most people who read Marvel think of Norman as a boogeyman; one of the big bad dads in the Marvel Universe, abusive parent to Harry Osborn, manipulative parent to Gabriel and Sarah Stacy and overall baby-and-blonde-obsessed maniac.
Not to say some of that isn’t true. But it’s not quite that simple, either, because when you’re dealing with Osborns, nothing is ever simple. (I could get into how Norman doesn’t even seek out blondes specifically, but that’s a post for another day.)
That said, warnings for this post: verbal, emotional, and physical abuse!
