From The Publisher: When he was seventeen, motorcycle stunt rider Johnny Blaze proved he would do anything to save his terminally ill father -- even make a deal with the sinister Mephistopheles that would cost him everything, from the woman he loved, the beautiful Roxanne Simpson, to Johnny's own immortal soul. Years later, as Roxanne reenters Johnny's life, Mephistopheles returns to collect on his part of the deal . . . and as night falls and evil rises, Johnny Blaze becomes his bounty hunter -- the Ghost Rider -- a flaming host of vengeance and twisted justice annihilating anything daring to escape from the depths of the abyss. Now charged with destroying Mephistopheles' greatest nemesis, Blackheart, Johnny Blaze's curse becomes his power, and perhaps his destiny. . . . |
