Spider-Man PS4: 7 Theories On THAT Mystery Character

1. Hobgoblin

For fans of the nineties Spider-Man cartoon, Ned Leeds' Hobgoblin was the original Goblin. Voiced by Mark Hamill, the character terrorised Peter Parker in the cartoon's earliest stages before being usurped by the more notable Green Goblin later on.

That doesn't mean we should rule out the possibility of him having a large part to play in the game however, especially since Insomniac have already taken a few cues from that cartoon - most notably in its decision to depict a slightly older Peter Parker.

It might be a bit of a long shot, but we're yet to really see the Hobgoblin in a video game since the millennium hit. That's really unfortunate, and in looking to divest from past Spidey titles, opting for the Hob over the Green Gob would make for a welcome change of pace.

Especially, y'know, if they can get Hamill involved too.
