HistoryEdit

The Hobgoblin of 2099 is a clone, created from the DNA of Roderick Kingsley, by Serena Patel, following this the Clone was grafted with hybrid organic nanofiber wings, armed with high explosives and genetically enhanced, endowing him with abilities. All in a ploy by Patel to finally rid Alchemax of Spider-Man.

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions

After being created by Serena Patel and sent on a retrieval errand, Hobgoblin found a fragment of the Tablet of Order and Chaos and ambushed Spider-Man, who was searching for it. Before properly introducing himself, Hobgoblin received the name "Demonic Kumquat" from Spider-Man as he was confused about his appearance. Hobgoblin declared that he would use the fragment's power to tear the world apart, revealing that he was never going to deliver the fragment to Patel. The two fought, but Spider-Man could not defeat Hobgoblin since every time he threw him from an edge, his wings absorbed the impact of the fall.

Hobgoblin flew away, and Spider-Man pursued him across the city, fighting Public Eye guards in the process (who Hobgoblin tricked into thinking they were working together). Eventually, Spider-Man cornered him in a rooftop. Hobgoblin combined his psy-powers with the power of his fragment, plunging Miguel into a hellish hallucination. After a lengthy fight, Spider-Man defeated him. However, in one last effort to kill Miguel, Hobgoblin lifted him up in the air and tried to throw him to the ground. Miguel attacked Hobgoblin and threw him to the ground, knocking him unconscious.

In the credits, it is shown that he is fighting Spider-Man again, but has a team of Goblins to back him up.

The credits showed Hobgoblin three times. The first one showed other Hobgoblins wearing differently colored uniforms, a parody of "Power Rangers". In his second appearance in the credits was in Doctor Octopus (2099)'s vignette. Miniature versions of he and Scorpion were taken care of by Doc Ock.

TriviaEdit

It is strongly hinted in the game that Hobgoblin 2099 is a genetic creation of Doctor Octopus, using DNA from the graves of the previous Goblins. This hasn't been proven...though; it hasn't been dis-proven either
Hobgoblin 2099 never makes an appearance in the comics.
