The Green Goblin is a long-term recurring villain in the Spider-Man series, voiced by Neil Ross. However, though Osborn has been present almost from the beginning, the Goblin himself is a relative latecomer to the series, with Osborn not becoming him until Season 3, despite almost all other villains appearing in Season 1 (including the Hobgoblin). In the Goblin's debut episode, Enter the Green Goblin, Norman Osborn and his partner, Mendel Stromm, are coerced into creating a formula for the Kingpin that grants superhuman strength. Also, he is one of the few characters in the series who knows that Wilson Fisk is Kingpin. Unlike his comic counterpart, Norman Osborn here is not an insane version of himself, and has instead developed a multiple personality disorder. His other side is the Green Goblin, who acts on destroying everyone who has hurt Osborn throughout his life... Osborn is never truly responsible for his actions.

However, in later episodes Osborn accepts the Goblin persona and they became 'one', determined to destroy everyone who has hurt him. Also, unlike the comic book version, who considers his son Harry weak, the Norman Osborn here deeply cares for Harry with his life.

The Green Goblin had superhuman strength, speed, endurance, and was a skillful master at his own bizarre method of combat. He flew his incredible turbo-fan powered “Goblin-Glider”, a device with high maneuverability, speeds up to 90 mph, and capable of easily carrying 400 lbs through the air. The Glider was controlled through the shifting of weight and balance from its rider, who would sit on top with his legs in the stirrups above each wing. He would wear his chain mail enforced Goblin costume and mask while standing on his Glider, and hurl small “bombs” in the shape of pumpkins from his “bag of tricks”. These devices could explode on contact, emit special gases, burst into flame, or stun his opponent, depending on the individual design. One of those gasses has the effect of temporarily neutralizing Spider-Man’s spider-sense, which allowed him once to follow Spider-Man and discover his secret identity.

A Counter Earth version of the Green Goblin appears in the Spider-Man Unlimited animated series voiced by Rino Romano, who ... plays Spider-Man. This version is actually a hero instead of a villain, mistaking Spider-Man for a villain during their first encounter. By the end of his first appearance, after saving Naoko and Shayne Yamada-Jones from one of Venom and Carnage's plans with the help of Spider-Man and after the Goblin lets Naoko and Shayne go, he whispers to himself about calling Naoko his love. It is revealed in the next episode, which the Goblin himself doesn't appear in, that Naoko has a jealous ex-husband who works for the rebellion against the High Evolutionary. Naoko's ex-husband, who is standing in the shadows by the end of the episode, reveals that he is jealous, suspecting that Naoko and Peter Parker, the man who pays the rent while living at Naoko's home, are having an affair. He punches a wall that bricks fall down thus confirming the Goblin, who has super-strength is indeed Naoko's ex-husband.

As originally conceived, the chemical solution devised by Norman Osborn from a formula originally conceived by Professor Mendel Stromm, that turned Norman Osborn into the Green Goblin bestowed upon him enhanced genius-level intelligence and limited superhuman strength only. He is said to be even as strong as Spider-Man. Today, Norman Osborn possesses superhuman strength, speed, stamina, agility, and reflexes. His durability has been augmented over the years to the point that bullets fired from most conventional weapons can't pierce his skin. Apparently, a .44 Magnum at close range can injure him, as Mary Jane Watson realizes when she shoots him when he tries to kidnap her. However, Osborn is capable of healing from damage that would be lethal to a normal person to a limited degree, having regenerated from being impaled through the chest by his own rocket-glider and later from having over a dozen of his bombs explode while webbed to his chest.
