In the long tradition of giving voice to villainy, Steve Blum — whose resonant presence has inhabited heroes and monsters across decades of animation and gaming — steps into the role of Norman Osborn for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, a new 4v4 fighting game arriving August 6. The casting quietly honors a lineage stretching back to 1964, when the Green Goblin first emerged as Spider-Man's most personal wound. It is a small but meaningful act of continuity: a beloved voice meeting a beloved monster, just before the game opens its doors to the world.
