While some might be disappointed that Ghost Rider doesn’t appear until the end of the first issue, the trade makes up for it in spades later on. While this appears to be rather crammed, the first issue moves very fast. All this plot is given to the reader in the first issue of this trade.
#New ghost rider skin#
After the soldiers depart, a spark from the fire touches Robbie which causes his skin to melt, and Ghost Rider finally makes his appearance in this book. After they completed their mission, they set the car on fire. These men turn out not to be police, but heavily armed soldiers who quickly go to the car and extract half a dozen bags filled with pink pills. His despair quickly becomes horror as he’s is gunned down by the men who were chasing him. Absolutely devastated that he just screwed up not only his own life, but especially that of his brother’s, Robbie prepares to be arrested. After a long chase between Robbie’s muscle car and a pursuing helicopter, he accidently takes a wrong turn and gets cornered.
#New ghost rider series#
In an incredibly well drawn series of panels, Robbie quickly takes the lead and it appears that he is going to succeed in his goals of getting his brother out of the hellhole they’re living in, when the cops show up.

Robbie takes a mysterious car he was working on in the auto shop and enters a street race that is offering big money for the winner. A Worthy Entrance For Our New Ghost Rider That is when everything changes for our young hero. After being unable to prevent a group of thugs from stealing his brother’s wheelchair, Robbie is finally at his wits end and now is whiling to put it all on the line for a shot at a better life for his brother and himself. We also get to meet Robbie’s younger brother Gabe, who is mentally handicapped and has to use a wheelchair. This becomes important throughout this arc, and most likely will play a larger role throughout the series. Right at the beginning of the first issue we get to see that Robbie has a distrust of those around him when he carefully counts his recent payment, notices he’s short, then dismisses the insistence of his boss that it was an accident. The trade opens up introducing the audience to Robbie Reyes, the new hero of this title. So how does volume one of this new series pan out? This Does A Really Good Job of Building the Relationship Between the Brothers, and Making Robbie More Likeable After hearing some good things about this title, I picked up the trade to give this odd little book a chance. However, I was familiar with Tradd Moore’s artwork which definitely peeked my interest. I also was not familiar with writer Felipe Smith. While riding around on a flaming motorcycle can be rather goofy in its own right, how would a car possibly be of any use other than transportation (more on that latter).

It wasn’t the fact that the new character would be Hispanic, younger, or even that he would be a different being, but it was the car. When Marvel announced they would be launching a new Ghost Rider title staring a new character, I was skeptical. You’ll Probably Hear Me Say This Several Times, But Tradd Moore Is A Beast! So with that off my chest, now with the trade.
#New ghost rider driver#
Also, this book is not titled Ghost Driver because you know no one would even glance at this book if it was titled Ghost Driver. In fact those movies might be a major reason why Marvel is introducing a new Ghost Rider (or even why they introduced the last new Ghost Rider). No, this has absolutely nothing to do with those god awful Nicholas Cage movies. So before I begin, let’s get this out of the way.
