Blaze is the best and always will be, buy Danny Ketch is a very very very close second and the Ghost Rider mythos wouldn't be the same without him

#

Robbie Reyes was also cool until Jason Aaron stripped away everything about him that was unique just to combat the "Robbie isn't a true Ghost Rider" people (they still say he isn't anyway so it was pointless)

Ghost Rider stuff isn’t exactly my area of expertise

# lime fox What was taken away?

Well, essentially Robbie doesn't have a spirit of vengeance so in some people's eyes that doesn't qualify him as a Ghost Rider, he had the spirit of a serial killer inside of him instead, so he still had all the powers of a Ghost Rider, but instead of having the urge to enact vengeance on criminals, he actually has the urge to enact violence on innocents, which is really cool dynamic because he has the powers to do good but the urge to do back sie he has to fight it off

#

Essentially that aspect was changed so he just has a spirit of vengeance in the comics now

#

Like all the other Riders

#

So basically, not interesting now

#

I didn’t know it got switched

#

If I want a good spirit of vengeance rider I'll read Johnny or Danny, not Robbie

lime fox
#

I thought the serial killer bit was always interesting- I didn’t know they swapped it

#

Then I also never heard of Danny

Why do people want new characters to be like old characters anyway?

#

You think it was an editorial thing or a Jason Aaron thing?

#

He also wrote his own Ghost Rider run, and while it was actually a pretty damn decent comic, he totally mischaracterised Johnny and Danny so it wouldn't be the first time he got Ghost Rider wrong

Oh yikes

#

I read some of his Thor stuff and I really liked it 😔

Yeah, well, he's not necessarily a bad writer but he can be very inconsistent, his Ghost Rider and Thor comics are good, and apparently his latest issue of Action Comics was very good too, but like, he's done just as many bad comics, I mean his Avengers run was genuinely disastrous for the lore of multiple characters, nobody was safe from Aaron in that run, not even Moon Knight

Oh yikes

#

So his Thor stuff is good to get tho? MEME_SideEye
Cause I was planning on buying all the Thor stuff but I don’t wanna if it’s bad

He doesn't act like himself at all

I’ve only ever seen Robbie Reyes in AOS.
I’m not familiar with the others.

Johnny is just so badass and cool in general and I grew up reading about him mostly so I have a special spot for him.

#

Even Kushala is cool - sorcerer supreme and everything - but she's demon rider I think
