Early on this series intended to introduce the Hobgoblin before the Green Goblin due to his use in the comics at the time. However, Hobgoblin's identity was originally going to be Norman Osborn due to a decision made by the original hired story-editor who ultimately left the show before production began. However, Spider-Man's co-creator Stan Lee, rejected the idea of Norman Osborn becoming the Hobgoblin and Osborn would instead create the Goblin equipment for the Hobgoblin. When John Semper was hired, he wanted to do the Green Goblin first, but was informed by Toy Biz CEO Avi Arad that he had to introduce Hobgoblin first because Toy Biz already had Hobgoblin toys already in production. Semper said about the Hobgoblin experience, "Quite frankly, I don't think the Hobgoblin is a very strong villain, so coming up with a good story for him was tough".
