His new motorcycle resembled a futuristic machine and the front of it could lower to serve as a battering ram.

Marvel had previously used the name for a Western character whose name was later changed to Phantom Rider.

At night and when around evil, Blaze finds his flesh consumed by hellfire, causing his head to become a flaming skull.

He rides a fiery motorcycle and wields blasts of hellfire from his body, usually from his skeletal hands.

He eventually learns he has been bonded with the demon Zarathos.

Fate Rider 5 Series From 1972

Blaze was featured in the Ghost Rider series from 1972 to 1983.

In 2000s comics, Blaze briefly again became the Ghost Rider, succeeding Ketch.

In 2013, Robbie Reyes became Ghost Rider as part of the Marvel NOW initiative.

He received his own series in 1973, with penciller Jim Mooney handling most of the first nine issues.

Several different creative teams mixed-and-matched until penciller Don Perlin began a considerably long stint with issue 26, eventually joined by writer Michael Fleisher through issue 58.

Blaze returned as Ghost Rider in a 2001 six-issue miniseries written by Devin Grayson; a second miniseries written by Garth Ennis in 2005, and an ongoing monthly series that began publication in July 2006.

Johnny Blaze was the son of Naomi Blaze and Barton Blaze, Naomi being the previous Ghost Rider.

Noble lived in the eighteenth century and grew up with his abusive father Pastor Kale and his younger brother Dante.

Fate Rider 5 Skin And His

But, because of the color of her skin and his fathers strong religious views, the couple kept their love a secret from the world.

They were forced to tell Pastor Kale when Magdelena bore Nobles child.

In order to cover up Magdelenas findings, Pastor Kale accused her of witchcraft and had her burned at the stake.

Knowing that his son, Noble, would object, he had him drugged, tortured and beaten in the church cellar.

The demons were called Furies and they started killing the townspeople.

Mephisto realized that Noble was attached to a piece of the Medallion of power, and he activated the piece to transform Noble into the original Spirit of Vengeance.

When Ghost Rider had destroyed the Furies, Pastor offered him human flesh - Nobles son.

Noble, in the guise of Ghost Rider, was unwilling to eat his own child, and he killed himself.

No agreement could be reached, and therefore a compromise was made whereby Nobles soul could not be claimed by either realm; but instead, his soul would remain in the void until rebonded with certain members of his family.
