Norman Osborn // Green Goblin

Description

The 2025 Magic: The Gathering Marvel's Spider-Man expansion brings iconic characters to the battlefield, headlined by the Norman Osborn // Green Goblin Mythic Rare card. Card number 39 in the set, this foil print is illustrated by Scott M. Fischer and stands out as a premium addition for fans of both the game and the Marvel universe. As a Legendary Creature — Human Scientist Villain, it offers a distinct strategic profile for players looking to build thematic decks. Norman Osborn // Green Goblin features a mana cost of {1}{U} and a mana value of 2, making it an efficient early-game play. Its primary ability prevents it from being blocked, allowing it to deal damage directly to opponents. Whenever it deals combat damage, the controller performs a connive effect: drawing a card and discarding one. If the discarded card is not a land, a +1/+1 counter is placed on the creature, increasing its power and toughness. This mechanic rewards aggressive play and resource management. The card’s true power emerges through its transformation ability. By paying {1}{U}{B}{R}, players can transform Norman Osborn into his Green Goblin persona, but only as a sorcery. This double-faced card design, indicated by the modal_dfc layout, adds a layer of depth to the gameplay, requiring players to manage their resources carefully to unlock its full potential. The color identity spans blue, black, and red, offering flexibility in deck construction. Collectors seeking to expand their Marvel-themed collections will find the Norman Osborn // Green Goblin card to be a compelling piece. Its foil finish and Mythic Rare status make it a desirable item for both gameplay and display purposes. Whether you are a seasoned commander player or a new collector, this card represents a significant part of the 2025 Marvel's Spider-Man set.
