Ghost Rider, Vol. 2 (1990-1998) #11B (Marvel Comics 1991)

Published in 1991 as the designated newsstand variant of issue #11B, this Marvel Comics installment captures a defining chapter in the second volume of Ghost Rider. Paired with Howard Mackie’s script and artwork by Larry Stroman and Mark Texeira, the 32-page full-color periodical delivers a focused supernatural arc that bridges street-level action with broader Marvel mythology.

The featured narrative, “Through a Nightmare Revealed…!,” tracks Danny Ketch as he confronts the dream demon Nightmare. This clash establishes critical clues regarding the former Ghost Rider’s whereabouts, driving the series’ overarching mystery forward. A cameo appearance by Doctor Strange integrates the protagonist into established occult continuity, while the $1.50 cover price reflects standard 1990s newsstand pricing. The separate newsstand barcode explicitly identifies this run as the retail edition, distinguishing it from the direct-market counterpart.
