Ghost Rider / Blaze: Spirits of Vengeance #7B (Marvel Comics 1992)

Ghost Rider / Blaze: Spirits of Vengeance #7B delivers a pivotal double-feature installment from Marvel’s 1992 supernatural line, uniting Dan Ketch and John Blaze under escalating supernatural pressure as the dual Ghost Riders.

This newsstand edition provides a complete reading experience with a script by Howard Mackie, full-color interiors by Adam Kubert and Bill Reinhold, and a painted cover by Adam Kubert paired with Joe Kubert. Rendered across 36 standard-sized pages, the issue retains its original $1.75 cover price and functions as a tangible collector’s artifact from a defining era of Marvel horror publishing.

Inside the Issue

The narrative divides attention between two separate crises that force the riders to adapt:

• A Day of Vengeance: John Blaze and the Ghost Rider revisit Quentin’s Carnival after Clara experiences recurring death visions. Their presence ignites mass panic, prompting an assault by Steel Wind and Steel Vengeance that ends abruptly when Mephisto transports both protagonists into another realm.
• The Great Hunt: Every decade, entities called The Feeders manifest in cities experiencing natural disasters to cull populations. During one such outbreak in Manhattan, the hunters focus on Dan Ketch. Rather than flee, Dan commits to the Ghost Rider curse to turn the tables and eliminate the predators.

Collector Value

Issue #7B stands apart by shifting the franchise dynamics from isolated vengeance to coordinated supernatural defense. The Kubert brothers’ linework establishes distinct visual signatures for each rider, while the support cast integration grounds the cosmic elements in grounded urban terror. Readers seeking definitive runs of the Spirits of Vengeance era treat this as a mandatory pick for completing a set, preserving both the historical Marvel Comics lineup and the transitional period before the team-up continued as standalone titles.
