I interpret this as Slott realizing how much Phil Urich sucks as a villain and bringing the one true Hobgoblin back. Hopefully by the end of #700, Phil goes back to being the good goblin, Norah gets hit by a bus and Alpha goes out like Jason Todd in "Death In The Family".

Didn't Slott say that the Hobgoblin would be back already?

I interpret this as either Betty Brant, Flash Thompson, the Kingpin or even Norman Osborn waking up from his coma to get payback on Kingsley.

If you ever plot a mainstream book I'm quitting comics.

I doubt anyone cares enough about Ned to bring him back by this point.

Oh sure you will...........You'd buy those issues but won't have the guts to admit it openly.

Yeah, that was a joke to Zechs.

Well it's true. Brother Voodoo and the Hobgoblin?! Obviously this is a sign Marvel at least appreciates it fans after torturing them for a year after brutally killing them.

Maybe it was the plan all along in order to make the returns that much more epic

Maybe for one, but for the Hobgoblin this appears to have Slott's reinterpretation of the Saga. This is just Slott showing how nasty and fiend Kingsley is for newbies.

You know....I'll be picking up Venom in about 2-3 hours. Maybe I should let you stew on it overnight when I find out who he is
