Ghost Rider #14 - Marvel


Alright! All is good in the world again. Mark Texiera is back on the Ghost Rider. Fan-frickin-tastic! I'm not downplaying Javier's talent. I think he's incredible. But when the two of them work together . . . it's truly a piece of art. Near the end of the book there's some pages with a sketchier type style. It's supposed to be some angels in clouds, so it has kind of a wifty type appearance. Anyway, it's incredible. It's kind of what you'd expect to see from Linsner. And it's just as good. Really! We find out Johnny has some kind of plan for dealing with Lucifer and the Ghost Rider. Basically he's killed Lucifer about 30 or so times so far. And while it's getting easier to deal with the Ghost Rider, it's getting harder to deal with Lucifer. And really, what happens after he does #665? I mean does he really think he'll be able to beat the final one? So anyways, he has a plan. With his latest attempt, he's started the plan in motion. But . . . as of right now . . . we have no idea what that plan is. That's what keeps you coming back. Right? Also those angels I talked about are up to something of their own. Again, we don't really know what that is, but it involves a family of three, a mother and two daughters, in a trailer-park. And since this is the first part of the new story-arc, Revelations, which is supposed to tie up everything we've been shown over the last year or so, the answers aren't going to be coming anytime soon. But it's the ride that's the trip. Right? Buckle-up!
