Robbie reyes ghost rider comic cover9/22/2023 The art style is a throwback to early 2000’s comics and definitely has the feel of a movie-tie in book, though the interesting layouts and great sound effects mixed with expert colours from Val Staples and Jesus Aburtov, create a visually engaging book that has all the energy you’d hope for from a story about someone whose power partly manifests itself through driving a really fast car. But main art duties for this ongoing are taken on by Danilo S. ![]() His fellow co-creator, Tradd Moore, returns for a (pretty and promising, though ultimately problematic) backup. He’s back in Robbie Reyes: Ghost Rider, a comic book that’s been titled in the grand tradition of other Marvel series featuring a person of color taking over the mantle from a white superhero… just so you know it’s not that same white guy in the suit and to ultimately remind us all that there’s no real permanence in a mantle change.įelipe Smith, one of the co-creators of Reyes, returns as writer. That day has arrived, mere months after his appearance in AoS. we knew it wouldn’t be long until he appeared back on the new comic book day shelves. ![]() So Robbie Reyes was reborn in the guise of a real-life human on the television, and, as is the way of modern comics. …someone at Marvel realised that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D was incredibly boring and no one cares about Inhumans (except Lockjaw or you know, maybe that’s just me) and decided that what the show needed was a flaming-headed golden-hearted demon from hell. Thus Robbie Reyes and another Ghost Rider ongoing comic were laid to rest until… As with many modern Marvel titles, the book was canned. The book was well received by fans and had a strong twelve issue run, its biggest impact probably being Tradd Moore’s awesome redesign of the classic flaming skull. Rather than selling his soul to the devil ala Johnny Blaze, Robbie dies trying to use a haunted muscle car in an illegal street race and he’s brought back to life by the evil spirit of his dead uncle who just happens to be a serial killer. ![]() With 2014’s All New Ghost Rider, Tradd Moore and Felipe Smith aimed to do the same with Robbie Reyes, a new iteration of everyone’s favourite Nic Cage character: THE GHOST WHO RIDES HOT THROBBING METAL MACHINES FOR BUSINESS AND PLEASURE. Some of Marvel’s strongest output in the last ten years has come from new and vibrant characters taking on mantles from legacy heroes: Kamala Khan as Ms Marvel.
