"Ghost rider Volume 1: Vicious Cycle TPB (Ghost Rider)"
Came in sooner and looked very new. It is very cool.

"Viscous Cycle. . ."
With the GHOST RIDER movie coming out, Marvel's decided to give the character a new ongoing series. This collection, VICIOUS CYCLE, collects the first five issues of the series, written by Daniel Way with art by Javier Saltares and Mark Texeira.

Ghost Rider's a problematic character to write because, while he looks cool, he's stupid, gullible, and (given my admittedly limited familiarity with the character) doesn't seem to fit in all that well with the rest of the Marvel Universe. In this book, the lack of any foreseeable growth for the character is made up for by giving him a quest that it will probably take him a good many issues of the series to complete. (Though his decision to embark on that quest seems at odds with his character in the recently released series GHOST RIDER: THE ROAD TO DAMNATION, in which his key motivation was not altruism but an overriding desire to get out of Hell.) It doesn't help that the primary villain for this book comes off as more annoying than unnerving. (I'd have been very interested to see Mike Carey's take on this story.)

This series is written by Daniel Way. Marvel has, for four or five years now, been touting Mr. Way as one of their up-and-coming greats, keep giving him relatively high-level assignments, and . . . well, I don't see it. He managed to make Venom so boring the title was cancelled, he's managed to make Wolvering boring, and now he fails to inject GHOST RIDER with the energy that such an insubstantial character needs to survive.

The art here is good but nothing to write home about.

This book manages to be silly when it needs gravitas, characters behave nonsensically too often, and the threat propelling the plot seems either inconsequential or contrived enough that I just don't care all that much. As other reviewers have noted, Ghost Rider is far more about style than substance, and, unfortunately, this book lacks the style to make up for its other deficiencies. The reason is book gets two stars instead of one is that I recently read a comic by Chuck Austen.

"Ghost Rider is Back!", I never really got into the Ghost Rider comics until I recently saw the movie. The movie had this good old Americana style (the wild west, motorcycles, etc.) to it that I went ahead and picked up the new graphic novel called Vicious Cycle. It's a good read and it keeps you wanting to see more and more. I'm pretty sure it will affend some Christian and Jewish readers because it deals with Satanic themes including the character Johnny Blaze (aka the Ghost Rider) escaping from Hell and he brings the devil out with him. I am a Christian myself and I was troubled at times when the devil goes to the extreme to send people to Hell. The devil is portrayed as a sneaky evil liar, which is exactly how he is portrayed in the Bible. The creators even went to an extreme end to bring up the origins of how Johnny Blaze became the Ghost Rider in this issue. Ghost Rider is definately the darkest out of all the heroes in the Marvel Comics universe and is recommended for mature audiences. Vicious Cycle is a great graphic novel to pick up if you enjoyed the Ghost Rider movie.

"GHOST RIDER BLAZES AGAIN", THIS BOOK COLLECTS ISSUES 1 TO 5 FROM THE GR. SERIES LAUNCHED ON 2006. IT STARS JHONNY BLAZE -THE ORIGINAL GHOST RIDER- AND THE STORY IS FAST PACED, WELL WRITTEN AND VERY ENTERTAINING, IF NOT ALL THAT ORIGINAL. THE ART IS SUPERB AND GOES PERFECTLY WITH THE STORY! I RECOMMEND THIS TPB TO GR. RIDER FANS OLD AND NEW, AND TO THE CASUAL READER. AND IF YOU ENJOY IT (LIKE I DID) JUST WAIT TILL AUGUST '07 TO BUY VOL.2: THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JHONNY BLAZE, THAT COLLECTS ISSUES 6 TO 11 (ACCORDING TO [..]).

"Duped again", How's that old saying go again? Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me multiple times for the sake of starting a new series? Shame on Marvel and all of us readers who will check it out regardless. Either way, Ghost Rider: Vicious Cycle marks the beginning of a new ongoing Ghost Rider series, premiering just in time for the big budget movie starring Nicolas Cage and coming hot off the heels of Garth Ennis' Ghost Rider: Road to Damnation TPB. Vicious Cycle features Daniel Way (Venom, Wolverine, Punisher VS Bullseye) using a similar plot device that Ennis used in Road to Damnation: Johnny Blaze is trapped in Hell and offered a way out in return for his services. Naturally, Johnny is once again tricked to be someone's pawn, which you'd figure that he would smarten up and be leary of any offers to come his way. Then again, if I was trapped in Hell with no way out, I'd probably be an easy sucker too, but I disgress. Way's script isn't anything we haven't seen before with Ghost Rider, and there's no new or relatively good ideas here either. Not to mention that the storyline itself is quite boring compared to what's come from Ennis with Road to Damnation, and even older Ghost Rider stories before it (except Hammer Lane). The saving grace of Vicious Cycle is the art by veterans Mark Texeira and Javier Saltares, who worked with writer Howard Mackie in creating the Danny Ketch Ghost Rider of the early 90's. All in all, Vicious Cycle is worth a look, and maybe the series will get better the longer it goes, but for now this volume is best left on the shelf.

"Ghost rider rides again", Long time Reader of ghost rider comics. I was always intrested in a demon who despensed justice. After reading road to damnation I hoped that they would restart the ghost rider and they did in a big way. The return of Jhonny blaze as the host and a Spirit that seems to be Kale Noble (second ghost rider spirit). Is a great way to bring people back into old flame head. the story does a great job of summing up the basics of ghost riders history and were things will be going, a minor complant is I would like to know how much time had pasted in the marvel universe since the rider was last on the road. But if you are a fan of ghost rider I recommend this story or if you liked the movie enough to get intrested this is a great rebirth to one of marvels classics.

"Penance Stare", It was a decent Ghostrider graphic novel. Johnny Blaze is the main rider and he gets tricked by Lucifer to help him crossover to our reality. The plot is not that original and having the rider to chase all the pieces of the devil and eventually create one body for the Prince of Lies makes it seem like a rip-off from Jet Li's "The One". The appearance of Doctor Strange was interesting, but it didn't flow with the story very well. At least the Sorcerer Supreme got his clock cleaned by Ol' Flame Head. Can't wait for the story to pick up in the later issues.
