History
Norman Osborn, also known as Spider-Man's enemy the Green Goblin, fathered twins, a boy and a girl named Gabriel and Sarah, with Gwen Stacy, to whom she gave birth while in France. Gwen vowed she would raise them with Peter Parker and refused to allow Norman access to them. Seeing her as a threat to his potential heirs, the Green Goblin killed Gwen and then raised the two children. Due to Norman's enhanced blood, the twins aged about 2-3 times faster than normal and became adults within the span of a few years. Norman Osborn told them that Peter was really their father and was responsible for their mother's death.
The twins then attacked Spider-Man. Peter Parker received an unsent letter written years ago by Gwen Stacy. He could tell that there were faint traces of writing on the other side, so he had tests performed on it by a forensics lab. The tests revealed text stating that Gwen had been pregnant and had twins. He collected DNA from the grave of Gwen Stacy and prooved that the twins, Sarah and Gabriel were her children. Mary Jane then revealed that she had known for years that the father of Gwen's children was Norman Osborn. Peter became so enraged that he broke everything within reach.
He met Sarah and Gabriel on the Brooklyn Bridge, the place of Gwen's death, to tell them that Osborn had been manipulating them. Angered, Gabriel remained convinced of Osborn's lies that Peter was their father, and that he had abandoned them. Sarah, on the other hand, believed Peter. Gabriel then attacked Spider-Man, but Peter refused to fight back since he didn't want to hurt Gabe. Police then shot at them, wounding Sarah and causing her to fall off the bridge. While Spider-Man rescued her, Gabe went underground to an area predetermined by Norman Osborn. There, he discovered that Peter had been telling the truth. He injected himself with the Goblin Formula and donned a gray version of the Green Goblin costume, becoming the Gray Goblin. Sarah shot at him (to protect a weakened Spider-Man), causing the Glider to blow up. He landed on a beach, with amnesia. He later returned home to Paris where Sarah secretly cared for him. While his sister left to be trained as an Interpol agent, Gabriel fled the Osborn estate in a crazed state.

Notes
- During Brand New Day, it is believed to no longer exist as he was mentioned only once and not mentioned again. This is proven to be true, in one issue where Spider-Man states that Harry Osborn is Norman's "only son". It is mentioned by Norman that he cannot impregnate a woman who hasn't taken the Goblin serum; something that Gwen didn't do. When Molecule Man tortures Norman and the Dark Avengers; in Norman's memories one shows a pregnant Gwen Stacy being killed. This implies that Sins Past is not retconed. It is believed that when Norman stated that he could only impregnate a woman who has taken the Goblin Serum; he may have been referring he could but with massive side-effects, and since Lily Hollister had taken the Goblin Serum; her child my have a chance for normalcy.
Trivia
- Gabriel is very much insane, possibly even more so than Norman Osborn.
- It is unknown who's last name he and his sister took; their mother's, their biological father's, or their alleged father's. So it is to assume that he and his sister took their mother's name.
- In Amazing Spider-Man #598 the name 'G Stacy' appears behind Harry's head.
