If that had taken place now or more recently, Goblin would've probably done something horrible on-page (or just off-page) to that crook to prove he was serious business. That being said, I thought the Marvel Knights Spider-Man redesign was a pretty solid update for the Goblin suit and he should've stuck with that, though Mike Deodato, Jr. did a good job of making the classic costume actually seem terrifying in Warren Ellis's Thunderbolts.
