My brother Michael drew me Harry Osborn from Spider-Man! :D
He’s the Ditko version of Harry with his fabulous nonsensical hair but he’s got a bird because the game version of Harry looks after the pigeons of NYC!
And Dave got me this amazing cat backpack (catpack?) which is not only adorable, it can fit my laptop in it! I’m going to end up taking it EVERYWHERE.
I also got a cake.
If this character ever gets brought back- and I would only accept this if Kindred was retconned as NOT Harry (which honestly would be super easy to do) – I wouldn’t want him to be part of Peter Parker’s supporting cast.
Like, nope, no, I’m sorry. That bridge has been so thoroughly burnt. It’s not even embers anymore. I just don’t think realistically there is any way Peter would ever trust Harry again. And having them have a fake relationship would be a thousand times worse.
I don’t know how much of the comics you’ve been reading (I don’t blame you if you abandoned them altogether) Kindred WAS established to be Not Harry! He was some combination of an artifical intelligence established before Harry’s death, the Stacy twins, Mephisto, and I guess maybe some of Harry’s soul that Norman sold to Mephisto?!?!
It made absolutely NO SENSE WHATSOEVER but geez it was at least better than “Harry turned evil again for no reason.”
Ah. I haven’t really been reading the current ones. Could you tell which issue says this?
And I don’t blame you!
Okay so in Amazing Spider-Man #74 it’s revealed that Kindred was [drumroll] Gabriel and Sarah Stacy All Along! But wait! They were created by an evil A.I. of Harry Osborn (the one from a 90s story called Legacy of Evil) so it was A.I. Harry All Along!
BUT WAIT! The A.I. Harry is controlled by Mephisto, because Norman sold Harry’s soul to Mephisto in exchange for wealth and power. Mephisto worked through Harry to create the twins for some godforsaken reason.
Oh and the Harry we’ve known since 2009 was a clone All Along and then he dies saving Norman, the evil war criminal who as previously mentioned sold his soul to the devil.
Peter is very upset even though he knows that particular Harry was a clone, and reiterates his love for him a couple of times later on.
Peter also knows full well that Norman sold Harry’s soul to the devil., since he was there when he confessed to it. This never comes up ever again. Him and Norman are friends now. The end.
