One of, if not Spider-Man's greatest enemy. He first appeared in Amazing Spider-Man #238 (March, 1983). He was co-created by Roger Stern (Writer) and John Romita, Jr. (Artist).

The first Hobgoblin, wealthy socialite Roderick Kingsley, became the Hobgoblin after discovering a secret lair of the Green Goblin and pilfering his hideout. He upgraded the Green Goblin's weapons and paraphanelia for himself and sought to acquire wealth and power. He is currently retired in the Carribean. If the world has truly seen the last of him is unknown at this point. Subsequent Hobgoblins have included Lefty Donovan, Ned Leeds, Flash Thompson, Jason Macendale, and an unknown, mysterious fifth Hobgoblin.
The Hobgoblin is as sane as he is deadly, cold, and cunning.

(n.) A derogatory title for a large, dumb, agressive man tanned, often artifically, to a unaturally orange hue. Hobgoblins are often characterised by thier singlemindedness, reckless behavior, hedonistic tendancies, a general lack of concern for others (including fellow Hobgoblins), and egregious orange complexion.

Etymology: The term applied above, in this sense, is borrowed from a fantasy creature in the Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game. Hobgoblins are savage, cruel humanoids who take by force and are just smart enough to form groups for raiding. The fantasy Hobgoblins are identified by a coat of corse orange hair covering thier oversized bodies.
"I was having a good time at the bar until all the Hobgoblins showed up and started fist-pumping."
