The Green Goblin Analysis

Improved Essays
Meleoron was having a bad time.

Everything started when some shifty organization called Chaldea enlisted him to track down time criminals and fight a "Holy Grail War." Meleoron didn't want to do that. Chaldea didn't care.

Then he summoned "The Green Goblin." The Green Goblin didn't want to be someone's Servant. And since he had a scary collection of bombs, boomerangs, and hallucinogenic drugs at his disposal, Meleoron had no choice but to care. The Goblin very effectively persuaded Meleoron to use a "Command Seal," the one tool a Master had,

But because the Green Goblin started to fund Chaldea with his multibillion corporate empire, Chaldea didn't care.

The only positive was that if Meleoron died, so did the Goblin. So Meleoron at least got to live. Unfortunately, the Goblin had stuck him in the brig of a ship and filled that ship with tons of narcotic gas grenades. If Meleoron did anything but sit quiet and visible in his cell, his guards would contact the Goblin and the whole ship would go up in smoke.

As a chameleon kind of dude, Meleoron had two forms of invisibility. He could turn invisible at will, although other people could still hear, touch, or otherwise sense him. The Goblin knew about this invisibility, as did basically everyone. But Meleoron had a second form of invisibility that was even stronger. If he held his breath, he could become completely imperceptible to any sense. If someone bumped into him, they wouldn't even realize. Meleoron kept this invisibility secret.

With his special invisibility, he could end the Goblin with one unexpected strike. But he needed a good opportunity. And a prison break.

Considering the explosions and gunfire outside, now was his

    After reading this excerpt from the book Crazy Horse: The Strange Man of the Oglalas by Mari Sandoz this passage gave Crazy Horse’s thoughts about the encroachment of the white man into Indian territory.

Reading this excerpt reminded me of many other unimaginable stories of Indian relocation such as the Trail of Tears, conflicts between Native Americans and the European settlers, and the United States government’s…
