Ghost Rider: Fan Favorite?

[shin-goji]

We've seen at least 4 mods of the Spirit of Vengeance, including Graf Zemo's. He seems to be really popular in the clix community. Maybe it's his undying thirst for violent vengeance in a modern world where we ourselves are seeking retribution in times such as these.

He's had several comic appearances. The Original Ghost Rider [Johnny Blaze], he 90's Ghost Rider [Dan Ketch], the 2001 limited series [Johnny Blaze again], Ghost Rider 2099, various cross overs and one shots, and a faithful following of The Midnight Suns [Vengeeance, Morbius, Blaze, Darkhold, Strange].

Granted, his 90's incarnation was like a broken record ["Innocent blood has been spilt!" "Vengeance must be served!"]. But I would say he has a very faithful fan following, even up through his Judge Dredd style artwork [with the goofy red jacket and oversized boots], and his overthrow of Blackheart and assuming the mantle of The King of Hell and being reborn as the Angel of Death.

Naurally, this is when the comic ended [though it was my personal favorite, can't wait to mod a Noble Kale clix]. Marvel has a history of having to avoid mentioning religion when it comes to the infernal. They can't stand a non-ravelled storyline, andreturned The King of Hell to his mortal bond with Ketch [Amazing Spider Man, forget which issue]. But he had a cool new bike and his skull glowed red.

Anyone else out there brave enough to declare their fandom of the one true Spirit of Vengeance, The Angel of Death, The King of Hell; Ghost Rider?

Not really a GR fan but I have to say that he is one of the cooler looking characters in comicdom! ;)

I guess that's why he has so much appeal, and why so many people would want to see him in HC. It's because more than anything else... it would be cool! :D

My personal favorite in order would be 2001, Ketch, Blaze, Vengeance, then 2099. He does have a nice Sleepy Hollow aura to him and everyone loves a violent hero :)

I always thought that Ghost Rider was an interesting visual character, but nothing more. He's a flaming skull that rides a motorcycle. That's cool. But as a character, he's a dull thing.

Spirit of vengeance...like a punisher-esque vigilante, but he's on a motorcycle and has a flaming skull, see?
No, he's supernatural, like a force for justice. Like the Spectre, only not as imaginative or powerful.

Really, I don't care for ghost rider. Besides, there's the motorcycle itself to consider. If WizKids ever did a vehicles set (the Fantasticar, SHIELD hoverbikes, and the like), then I think it would be cool to include him. But without vehicle stats in the game, Ghost Rider without the bike is pretty lame, don't you think?
