THE CREATURE KNOWN AS EXHAUST!
Johnny Blaze has finally been exorcized of his demonic tumor, but it lives on as something new and sentient, a dark mirror of both him and his bike...a creature known as EXHAUST. As Johnny and Talia Warroad head toward Chicago - a city known for the blood of its slaughterhouses, a city they believe is central to the Shadow Country conspiracy - they'll be pursued by Exhaust and the dark forces he manifests.

    This issue, in particular, is one of the most thorough of that arc, explaining much of the mythos and lore this creative team has introduced in a little reimagining of the Spirit of Vengeance. Read Full Review

    Ghost Rider #9 provides readers with plenty of gore and potent imagery to keep horror fans happy. However, the characters lack motivation, and the plot hasn't clearly presented itself, so the hopes of a satisfying finale in the next issue are quickly dwindling. Read Full Review

    Not the strongest issue thus far, but still a good read overall. The story just didn't feel quite as interesting or compelling as it has been recently. Smith's art continues to be one of the best aspects of this series, though, as he continues to put out awesome pages.

    It overall was a pretty good issue. Nothing fancy, but did its job well.

    The first half of this issue really gets me going. The art is top-notch and the writing's tight. But things seem to unspool at the halfway mark. Plot points disconnect, the prose turns aimless and "grim for the sake of grim," and even the visuals get rougher. The back half has "this scary dream was incredibly vivid but I have no idea what it means" energy, and though that can spur a reader's curiosity, it's not a strong backbone to build a story on.

    Huh.. like I said last issue I have loved this volume of ghost rider and am a big Benjamin Percy fan but this is now back to back issues that I haven't cared for. Again this seemed to lack any kind of substance or depth and felt unnecessarily over the top gory. I hope this series gets back on track next issue
