History

Pre-Earth-982

Prior to What If Volume 2 105, Phil's life was the same as Green Goblin (Phil Urich) up until the point in the Clone Saga during which Mary Jane Watson went into labor early.

Earth-982 history

After trying his hand at being the Green Goblin, Phil attempted another hero and dubbed himself the Blue Wail. When this didn't pan out either, he went into law enforcement to keep himself active in crime fighting. He became crime lab partners with Peter Parker shortly there after and worked with him at Midtown South Police Station for around a decade.

When May began to show signs of inheriting the Spider-Man mantle and started to ask questions about the original Spider-Man, Phil noticed webbing at a crime scene (Spider-Girl 1). Not long afterward, he confronted May with his own "heroic" past (Spider-Girl 3).

In the MC2 timeline, Phil Urich marries his girlfriend Meredith and becomes a forensic scientist and friends with Peter Parker. He is aware of both Peter and Spider-Girl's identities. Phil Urich resumes the Goblin identity, first under the name of the Golden Goblin, then as the Green Goblin with the assistance of Normie Osborn. After Phil lost a long series of battles, Normie recreates Phil's original mask, which grants him superhuman strength and other abilities, greatly enhancing his effectiveness. He is also a founding member of the New New Warriors.

While Phil originally required the technology in the Goblin mask to enhance his physical abilities and no longer has access to it, he retained one power that he is able to activate without the mask. Phil is capable of using his laughter as a sonic weapon of sorts. His "lunatic laugh" has been shown to disorient opponents and even shatter their eardrums. He once used the laugh while out of costume to defeat the Venom symbiote after it had taken possession of Peter Parker.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

Due to ingestion of a modified version of Norman Osborn's "Goblin Forumula," Phil Urich gained superhuman strength (able to lift upwards of 9 tons), stamina, durability, speed and reflexes; however, he was unable to access these abilities without the unknown catalyst provided by the Goblin mask he wore. He also possessed a so-called "Lunatic Laugh" capable of creating sound waves disorienting to most people.

As the Green Goblin, Phil wore a alternate/spare Goblin costume composed of a chainmail mesh capable of deflecting small arms fire. He traveled on a bat-shaped one-man, rocket-propelled "Goblin Glider." Like other Goblins' gliders, it was armed with heat-seeking missiles, machine guns and retractible blades. Other weapons Phil typically used were incendiary Pumpkin Bombs capable of melting through 3 inches of steel, smoke and gas-emitting bombs with an appearance like a ghost, razor-edged bat-shaped boomerangs and gloves woven with micro-circuited filaments which channel pulsed discharges of electricity capable of discharging nearly 1,000 volts of electricity. Most of this equipment was completely destroyed or rendered inoperable during Phil's final battle with the Sentinal.
