You can grab your seats now because Marvel is about to deliver one of the most brutal stories in comics… and there have been quite a few. If you thought Deadpool and Venom would be Wolverine’s craziest sidekicks in 2024, then you better hold on to your seats. In the coming months we’ll see him in World War II alongside Ghost Rider.
Marvel is retooling the story of the iconic Spirit of Vengeance, known as Ghost RiderYou surely know it from the versions by Nicolas Cage (movies) and Gabriel Luna in Agents of SHIELD. Now we’ll see him in World War II alongside Wolverine and other well-known characters like Peggy Carter and Bucky Burnes. And maybe Captain America? The arrival of the biker is a spectacular reinvention.
It will be in the new series called Hellhunters (Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Adam Gorham) that we will see the origins of Ghost Rider ’44, one of the many versions of Marvel’s Spirit of Vengeance. The latter has possessed several characters over the last few years.
Ghost Rider ’44 can only awaken “when the monsters come.” (…) 1944: As American Sergeant Sal Romero parachutes into Nazi-occupied Europe, young Nazi officer Felix Bruckner becomes host to an unspeakable evil. Following his violent encounter, Romero is reborn as Ghost Rider ’44, who sets out not only to exact revenge on Bruckner and the Nazis, but to save humanity from annihilation.
Anyone who knows a minimum of Ghost Rider knows the enormous potential that the character has to fight against the Nazis on the side of the Allies, as ScreenRant points out. Imagine the deranged state of the Spirit of Vengeance when entering the battlefield. Marvel has shown two covers by Jonas Scharf and Taurin Clarke, and both are brutal! It will be released on December 15, 2024.
