Green Goblin & Hobgoblin

Norman Orborn discovered an experimental enhancement formula.  When Norman attempts to create the serum,  it explodes in his face.  The accident greatly increases his intelligence and physical abilities,  but also drives him to destructive insanity.  He then adopts the Green Goblin identity.

As the Hobgoblin,  Roderick Kingsley blackmailed his competitors.  Lacking the physical power to protect himself,  Roderick sought out the original Green Goblin formula.  Modified in hopes of avoiding the insanity-inducing side effects,  Kingsley found the formula gave him strength nearly equal that of Spider-Man’s.
