Quote1 Actually, I don't. I'm not sure I ever will. But I understand that the Phil Urich I used to know... is as dead as my wife. I need to accept it. You have to acknowledge your losses before you can mourn them. But I haven't lost everything. I still have the truth. The ability to find it. Reveal it, and make people understand it. To shed the light on the darkness. Especially when it's hard. Especially when it hurts. To see those responsible exposed and punished. I owe it to the man Phil once was. And to myself. My name is Ben Urich. And I'm a reporter. Quote2

Ben wonders how he didn't realize that his nephew Phil was a supervillain, Kingpin's henchman. During the Goblin Nation's attack on New York, he is approached by Phil who tells him to stay safe which leads him to think that Phil can still help him. Soon after he goes to inform Robbie and he asks him to inform Norah too, but he instead goes to Parker Industries to look for a cure for the Goblin Formula. Discovering that they are already working on it, he takes a vial and lures Phil into a trap. However Robbie follows him and Phil attacks him, so Ben calls Spider-Man via the Spider-Bots. A confrontation ensues in which Ben realizes that Phil likes being a goblin, and that his nephew is a lost cause, convinces Spider-Man to let him go and take Robbie to the hospital instead of fighting him.
