The flames of vengeance will be burning again in Marvel Comics, as the ghost Riders unite for Spirits of Violence.
Spirit, some people fear it
A new five issue Ghost Rider mini-series is set to dawn this October from Marvel Comics. It’s one that might appeal to more than one generation of fan as well, since this series reaches deep into the Ghost Rider lore. Spirits of Violence will be helmed by writer and Spirits of Vengeance alum Sabir Pirzada, along with artist Paul Davidson, and fans can expect a lot more than one Rider to star.
The mini will seek to tie the various mythos’ in play together, reuniting both original Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze and 90s star Danny Ketch. But that’s not all, since Robbie Reyes, Kushala, and even Hellverine will be on board as well, with a new face in Fantasma.
All of the above (and more?) will be targeted by a new villain called the Spirit of Violence, a magical entity that’s hosted by a face the long time Ghosty fans would know pretty well.
GHOST RIDERS UNITE!
When a strange group of new villains set their sinister plan in motion, Ghost Riders past, present and future must combine forces to save the world. But just who is the Spirit of Violence, and what horrors do they bring from Johnny Blaze’s and Danny Ketch’s pasts? Forget everything you thought you knew about Ghost Rider! The most climactic ride in history starts here!
On continuing his saga and the reveal of the Spirit of Violence’s identity, Pirzada shared, “Those who read our previous series, Spirits of Vengeance, already know that the host for the Spirit of Violence is none other than Barbara Ketch. That’s right! Danny’s sister has returned from the dead, and she’s already killed Linda Littletrees. That was always intended to be the kickoff to what I’m referring to as the ‘Violent Era’ of Ghost Rider, where all bets are off. The end of issue 2 in particular will prove that we are not playing it safe.”
