* Norman is the {{Foil}}/EvilCounterpart of Peter in more ways than one. Both are hardworking; (sometimes) aloof geniuses, yes, but it's amazing how they parallel each other as well in many other ways: Peter is working class, and one of the themes of Spider-Man is him struggling his superhero life with normal everyday struggles (work, college, paying bills). While Norman came from a bankrupt family, he eventually rose to power to become an influential billionaire. He almost never struggles in the same manner as Peter does. Peter is responsible, in the way that when a situation gets complicated, he's the first one to make the necessary sacrifices to help his loved ones (while not having much of his own to give away). Norman is a man who has everything; yet when things go crumbling down, instead of admitting his involvement in the problem, he sticks his fingers in his ears and puts on a Halloween costume like a little kid would, completely ignoring the issue. Peter may have really bad luck; but his loved ones genuinely care for him and support him, even when things get rough. Norman instead is only surrounded by asskissers, people who use him for their own benefits, and Harry; who is toxically dependent on him. In short, Norman's ultimate motive is that he wants limitless power without any responsibilities to others whatsoever, and his archfoe is the hero whose motto is literally "with great power comes great responsibility." It makes perfect sense why he is Peter's Arch-Enemy above all the other rogues, he's practically a dark shadow of him.

* In one of Steve Ditko's last stories in ''Amazing Spider-Man'', there's a very subtle hint that Norman is the Goblin. Someone fires a rifle at Osborn's former partner, Mendel Stromm, causing a fatal heart attack in Stromm. Spider-Man leaps up to the wind from which the shot was fired, and sees no one. But Ditko's art also shows that it's a window high up on a blank exterior wall, with no way of getting to it. Norman is later shown concealing the rifle. The hint is that Norman would need some method of personal *flight* to get to the window and make the shot. And since the only two Spider-Man villains at the time who could fly were the Vulture and the Goblin, and the Vulture is a bald old man....

** It's also more realstic, since they're meant to be about the same age as Peter's parents would be (being that his Uncle Ben was his father's brother), but they often look more like grandparents.

* How come the Daily Bugle gets away with printing so much hatred towards Spider-Man? Surely after a while someone would attempt to sue them for defamation or outright libel, but the answer is very simple: there's no evidence to the contrary. People like Flash Thompson can insist all they want that Spider-Man is a hero, that doesn't mean that they can prove it. All the public sees of Spider-Man is a guy in a mask who patrols the city and assaults civillians, claiming they were committing crimes. Even if the civillians in question wind up being arrested, as Jameson brings up, how do we know Spider-Man isn't in league with the thugs and double-crossing them at the last minute? In short, the Daily Bugle is considered the most trusted opinion on Spider-Man since it represents how the public feels on him.

*** But they also have a lot of overtones of black. Carnage is red with a lot of black mixed in, and Venom is dark blue at best, but almost always black. Even if they are meant to be Spider-Man's own colours, they're more grimy, ugly, evil versions of them (fitting since that's what both Venom and Carnage technically are: evil versions of Spider-Man)

* Spider-Man's most notable enemies are demonically possessed. Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, The Lizard, and Venom all have some element of duality to them: Norman Osborn and The Green Goblin are distinct personalities, Curt Connors and The Lizard are similarly two separate entities, Venom is composed of Eddie Brock and The Symbiote, as is Carnage only with Cletus Cassidy and Doctor Octopus is (at least in the second film) being controlled by his A.I. robotic arms. This may not seem overly significant at first, but each of them can also represent one of the seven deadly sins: Greed (Green Goblin), Pride (Doc Ock), Envy (The Lizard, Wrath (Venom), Lust (Carnage) and Gluttony (Kingpin). Each character becomes a villain (and thus gains their dualistic nature) by way of their sin: Green Goblin used himself as a test subject for a process that he hoped to make money off of, Doctor Octopus was out to prove what a genius he was, Curt Connors wanted to re-grow his arm to be "normal", it was Eddie Brock's irrational hatred of Spider-Man that attracts, and feeds, the symbiote, Carnage was formed because of Cletus Cassidy's unquenchable thirst for destruction and bloodshed and, while not dualistic, the Kingpin has been taken over by his ever-consuming desire to expand and diversify his already exceedingly large criminal empire. If you look at the dual identity of each villain as the patron demon of their particular sin, each character "called" the demon to them through their sins, and became possessed. As yet, I can't think of any Spider-Man villains that represent the other Deadly Sin, maybe because Sloth would probably make a really stupid villain.
