History

Norman Osborn shared a similar history to his Earth-616 counterpart until he learned of the existence of the Infinity Gauntlet while serving as the leader of H.A.M.M.E.R.. He put together an army of villains to help obtain the Infinity Gems and set out to kill each member of the Illuminati. After obtaining each of the gems he became the Goblin King and began the Siege of Asgard, alongside his Dark Avengers. After a short battle against the heroes, he used the Gauntlet to kill the Sentry and the heroes present. With no one left to oppose him, Osborn used the gauntlet to reshape the world and become its ruler.

Some time later he brought his father forward in time to show him what he had become. Norman first showed Amberson a simulation of the Siege of Asgard, to which Amberson berated his son for becoming a tyrant. So he showed him what he had done to Spider-Man, this angered Amberson even further so Norman used the gauntlet to make Amberson love what he had become. Thanos arrived to claim the gauntlet and told Norman that no one could truly love him from the power of the gauntlet and Norman killed Thanos. In response to Thanos' words Amberson told Norman he would always love him, but this angered Norman as he wanted to be loved for his accomplishments and so killed Amberson by wiping him from existence in all of time and space, thus removing Norman as well.[1]
