Hi. Quick clarification: In THE RUNAWAYS Vol. 2, the heroic Green Goblin became a member of a group called THE LONERS. THE LONERS got their own mini-series. During that mini-series Phil/The Green Goblin went down a path where he going on the crazy/villainous side. That's his previous appearance from where I picked him up over in the pages of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: BIG TIME.
Another quick correction here: Tom DeFalco and Scott McDaniel created the Phil Zurich incarnation of the Green Goblin. The character was just debuted in a Web of Spider-Man issue written by Terry Kavanaugh to help launch the series.
Great article, as always! Just one minor — super minor, minimal even — thing I almost didn’t want to mention: Phil is Ben’s nephew, not his son. Anyway, that doesn’t disqualify the great work you always do with your articles. Keep it awesome!
That Green Goblin run was really awesome. Specially because it had a proper ending. Sadly Scott McDaniel only drew 10 out of the 12 issue run, but still, the last episode is really funny and sad at the same time.

Thanks, Dan! I had no idea about that bit of backstory.

Thanks, Tom! That’s what I get for trusting Wikipedia.

Oh you are totally right. I was even chuckling about him having an Uncle Ben while writing this.
