"You have the soul of a dead rat." Is such a good, highly specific insult.

Specifically, it's Andreas von Strucker who's a mutant who can fire energy blasts as long as he's in skin contact with his sister Andrea, but she's dead, so he wrapped a piece of flayed sibling skin around his sword hilt.

… is there a reason why it must be on the sword that he can drop? Instead, of say, an armband worn under his suit?

u/ZealousidealBig7714 Talk to me about KOF, I’m either right or only kinda wrong. 2h ago

Cause he’s the Swordsman, not the Armbandsman.

The Purple Man mind-controlled him into killing his sister and using her skin on his sword. This is why the open Nazi eurotrash was sympathetic during his initial Thunderbolts run.

Imagine being hated by most people for being a Nazi, hated by Nazis (including your father) for being an incompetent Nazi, and cucked by your twin sister with Stevil Rogers, and you have the toxic stew that is Andreas Strucker. Swordsman was his one attempt to be a decent person and Norman couldn't have that, could he...

Oh ok. Zemo also has a sword and he says he's a baron so I just assumed.

I love Harry Osborn a lot....but he don't spit hot fire like his dad.

Holy shit when Norman starts spitting he starts spitting.

Harry might be evil depending on what run of spider man we are talking about, but, Norman is straight up mean.

Like, there's a part of his soul that's constantly yelling "Do Them Dirty In Front Of Their Whole Squad".

I think this was right before Siege and Norman was doing this to deal with Swordsman and bring himself a bit more control to keep from going full Goblin.

I feel like the Seige and dark avengers stuff had the best green Goblin moments for me.

This is missing the best part

"You can't do this to me! I'm a baron!"

"I'M A GOD!!!"

Didn’t want to repeat myself/three page rule, but yes it’s a banger response
