    Ghost Rider is fun but largely mindless here. It's going through familiar motions which may be new to some but are certainly part and parcel of this character since, well, forever. It's done in the right way and it looks pretty good so it's an easy and enjoyable read overall, even though it does lean into the whole thing of people are terrible when you're not watching thing rather easily. The way Johnny equates most things with the motorcycle as a metaphor or something can be a little groan-inducing but it's also a staple of things. New readers may enjoy it well enough, older readers are likely just glad to have the character poking around in his own book, and both can have fun with it while wishing it was able to be something more.

    Ghost Rider #2 is a solid example of comic horror and a noticeable improvement over the first issue. The setup is the stuff of classic horror films. The artwork is excellent. And the resolution opens the door for monster-of-the-month adventures. That said, the narration was frequently unnecessary and dragged the pacing in several spots. Read Full Review

    Ghost Rider #2 is a good second issue that cuts to the chase with monster action and new character development. Percy is great at putting us inside Johnny's head through captions with a voice that feels lost and unsure. He's a victim of the Ghost Rider, but we get to see he's also a hero in his own right here. This new direction for Ghost Rider reads like great episodic TV in comics form. Read Full Review

    It is a fun read by seeing what Johnny is getting into while on his journey to get his memory back but it doesn't move the needle too much in the overall storyline. It answers a couple of questions but still leaves plenty of stuff to be determined. Read Full Review
