A Great Introduction to Ghost Rider
So this is my first Ghost Rider Comic and I really enjoyed it! Johnny Blaze, the Ghost Rider, escapes from Hell but accidentally brings the Devil with him back to Earth. During his quest to send the Devil back to Hell, Johnny's past comes back to haunt him and he learns some revelations about the deal he made with the Devil. I can't really say more without ruining the story.I have no previous experience with the Ghost Rider, but this was a great introduction to the character. The only tie in to the Marvel universe was a two part story during the World War Hulk story line, but even then, its pretty well explained without losing the reader. My only complaint was that in the middle of the comic, there was story that explained how Johnny died and was sent to hell. It kind of threw off the story a little. I think they should have first introduced that at the beginning of the comic or shortened it.So, if you want to read a little ghost rider but haven't tried before, this is a great place to start.

It was a pretty long, and great story
I was surprised to find that you can actually deliver a book in mint condition, through the mail. It was a pretty long, and great story. If you like Ghost Rider, you'll probably like it.

Daniel Way takes us on one hell of a ride, a great quick read with some good artwork.
Ghost Rider by Daniel Way The Complete Collection collects Ghost Rider #1-19 (2006-2008) written by Daniel Way and art by Javier Saltares, Mark Texeira and Richard Corben. This collects Daniel Way's involvement with Ghost Rider which was collected in 4 separate volumes titled Vicious Cycle, The Life and Death of Johnny Blaze, Apocalypse Soon and Revelations. It should be mentioned that just because this is a complete collection it doesn't contain the entire run of Ghost Rider, just Daniel Way's run but I'll talk more about that later.I'm fairly new to comics, I've been reading them for about a year now and in that year I've come across Daniel Way in his Deadpool and Venom series and am a fan of his work and how Marvel releases his works in a decent sized collection. Once I learned of this collection I jumped at the chance to get my hands on it as my only knowledge of the character was from the movies with Nicholas Cage but also was excited for a more mature read. I can give you the story quite simply but I think it may be better to quote Johnny Blaze himself "My name's Johnny Blaze an a long time ago I made a deal with the devil to save the ones I love. Because of that deal, I became something called the Ghost Rider…an' then I got sent to hell. But I escaped… an' so did the devil. Not in one piece like me, though. Instead, he came here to earth in little pieces that ended up in the bodies of the recently-dead, bringing em' back to life...but possessed. You asked me what I'm doin' here, well...I'm chasin' after the devil, tryin' to right somthin' that I did very, very wrong." It's very accurate (in fact was on a single page which I'll be including a picture of) but that's not all of it, there are 666 pieces of the Devil (go figure) that have scattered around the world, and when one falls the rest grow stronger. The story itself isn't bad, I did like it and would definitely pick it up again and will be moving on to what's next, there isn't just one story here, there are a few smaller stories that take place and even a tie into to World War Hulk which I have read and would recommend any Hulk fan buy (along with and after reading Planet Hulk) and we even get to see Dr. Strange. While I like the story it's not perfect, I'd say I liked it more than Daniel Way's Venom run and as much as his Deadpool run but for different reasons. I personally feel there wasn't enough of the devil and fights between him and Ghost Rider, and I feel that's because of the huge amount of them, there 666 that Rider is meant to deal with and we see maybe 12 of them and don't really hear about the rest. Are we supposed to assume that Rider has dealt with them? If that's the case I think it could've been a nice touch if you hear a TV update or radio addressing the chaos and saying something along the lines of 'there were multiple sightings of a man reportedly with a flaming skull in (insert town) hours ago, charred remains were found at the site, the suspect is still at large' etc. Showing the sense of urgency and that Rider has been busy, instead we get one or two pages just talking about 3 or 4 of the devil's he killed regardless I'm just trying to find something to be nit picky about.Overall, I thought this was quite an entertaining read and will definitely come back to it, it was also refreshing to get some more dark and mature reading from Marvel and helped make this character and experience all the more memorable when I compare it to other Marvel reads. The artwork was for the most part appealing to me, I particularly loved the opening in hell and other panels that showed off the Ghost Rider in awesome ways. I also like the fact that despite being a 19 issue story, it was quite a quick read for me which I like since I've got 20 other comics I need to get around to. So I see this as an easy recommendation especially for a reasonable price and for new comers to Ghost Rider in this format.As I said before, this isn't the complete run of Ghost Rider as this collects 19 of the 35 released issues, Jason Aaron takes over the rest of the issues and if you want to continue reading this run of Ghost Rider I recommend purchasing Ghost Rider: The War for Heaven Book 1 as it collects #20-32 and annuals #1-2. I'm not sure if it's worth getting the last volume of Jason Aaron's Ghost Rider as its 3 issues and when I looked online kinda pricey so I'm going to buy the last 3 issues digitally and I'll update this review to say if it's really worth the purchase or it can be skipped. I also think it's pretty dumb that it's titled as book one since there isn't a book two.Hopefully you found this review helpful and happy reading.

I might be a little biased Ghost Ride has always been been my favourite visual character. It is very hard for aneone drawing of him, not to make him look cool, and Johnny Blaze is my favourite host of his.The story is ok, but this is all about the visuals and action for me. I think Daniel did a great job picking up the ball when the last Ghost Rider series was cancelled just as it was getting interesting. He has managed to incorporate the storyline/direction of the series and the one shot. The only art work I did not like was in issue 6 and 7. Just not to my taste.I do prefer superheroes to save people, but with the moniker Spirit of Vengeance I can understand the choices made. I also like the conflict between Blaze and Ghost Rider. This us a bit of a crossover in in World War Hulk. I like the last line describing the Illuminati.A great series with big Revelations about both Blaze and Ghost Rider himself. Also his true enemy is revealed.
