After Peter realizes the symbiote's effects on him and his relationships, he gets rid of the suit, only for it to fall onto  Eddie Brock, whom he had humiliated earlier by making him lose his staff photographer job after catching him having doctored a photo depicting Spider-Man as a criminal while under the influence of the symbiote as well as stealing his girlfriend Gwen Stacy from him and creates a new enemy, Venom. He pleads with Harry for help when Venom and Sandman kidnap Mary Jane, but a broken-spirited Harry, whose face is disfigured from the bomb, declines, telling Peter to leave. As Spider-Man takes on the two villains alone, Harry's butler tells him that he knew all along that Norman's death was a result of his own weaponry and not due to Spider-Man; Harry relents and comes to his old friend's aid just as Sandman is about to kill Spider-Man. Harry and Peter prove to be a formidable team and defeat Sandman in addition to saving Mary Jane. Venom proves to be more of a challenge, and as he prepares to stab Peter with Harry's glider, Harry takes the blade for Peter and is tossed aside. Peter finally manages to defeat Venom, and after coming to a truce and understanding with Sandman, finds a mortally-wounded Harry down below with Mary Jane. The two friends forgive each other and reconcile before Harry dies with Peter and Mary Jane at his side.
