History Characters / TheAmazingSpiderManSeriesSupervillains

* CardboardPrison: In Electro's own words, Oscorp thought it was a ''[[SarcasmMode brilliant]]'' idea to place him in a harness that runs on electricity, the very substance he's made of and can control. Electro all but [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] how stupid that was. And he later proves this to be true when he breaks out of it during Harry's visit.

* DisabilityAsAnExcuseForJerkassery: Harry's anger and desperation for a cure leads him to lash out at anyone he deems unhelpful to him. This becomes a lot more noticeable when Peter and Spider-Man (before Harry finds out they're one and the same) try to warn him that a blood transfusion from the latter would be too risky and Harry refuses to listen. When Peter points out how Dr. Conners became the Lizard because of the Cross-Species research, Harry calls Conners "weak" and acts like he can handle it. When Peter turns around to think about what to do, Harry accuses him of "turning [his] back on [him]", forcefully grabs him by the shoulder, and pleads with him in a way that comes off as guilt-tripping. When Spider-Man warns him that a transfusion could kill him and refuses to give him his blood, Harry throws a tantrum and calls Spidey a fraud. Turning into the Green Goblin just makes Harry worse, as he blames his best friend for making him do it even though Peter offered to help him find another solution and he rejected it, and it leads him to [[spoiler:murder Gwen Stacy, an innocent bystander, just to spite Peter]].

* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: The only supervillain who didn't have a prior connection to Oscorp before becoming a villain.

* NeverFoundTheBody: [[spoiler:Though it seems like he died in his last fight with Spider-Man, his ability to manipulate electricity leaves his fate ambiguous - especially considering that he phases in and out via particles a handful of time through the movie. Creator/JamieFoxx himself even lampshades this by saying that "electricity cannot truly die", implying he might have made a return. Subverted in ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' in which Max laments he was minutes away from death, though Foxx's claim could still [[AmbiguousSituation leave it up in the air]] to wether or not he actually was.]]
