Wolverine/Ghost Rider: Weapons of Vengeance Alpha #1 unites two of Marvel's biggest badasses for a metal, macabre, and menacingly good read. I was hooked from start to finish, and hopefully the rest of the crossover lives up to the promise of this initial issue. Read Full Review

Ghost Rider/Wolverine: Weapons of Vengeance #1 is a solid start to the Weapons of Vengeance story. It is surprising that it took this long for Wolverine and Ghost Rider to have an official event considering Percy is behind both books. With Geoff Shaws art on both series, this is a great opportunity to take Wolverine in a new direction after the Weapons of X story. Overall, this is a great time to jump into these characters. Percy has a good grasp of both Wolverine and Johnny and provides all of the necessary background needed to start jumping into Weapons of Vengence. Read Full Review

A horror story starts with a bang for two brutal heroes. Read Full Review

great throw-back to the 90s, probably better written than the old stuff. really good start.

Did the world need this crossover? Probably not. Did Marvel let Benjamin Percy have some fun with two of his best characters? You bet. Did we all benefit from that decision? Hell yeah! WOLVERINE/GHOST RIDER WEAPONS OF VENGEANCE ALPHA #1 is a rip-roaring, bike-riding, thrilling badass adventure featuring two characters from Benjamin Percy’s current going series on the hunt for a demon wreaking havoc.

Readers won’t need to be caught up on either character’s solo series to enjoy this isolated event. Percy sets the stage by introducing a gruesome murder scene that brings Wolverine and Ghost Rider together to solve and makes it clear that this isn’t the first time they’ve seen this type of horror. The main plot of the issue follows flashbacks where readers learn about the original murder spree that caused their paths to cross. We get a lot of great character moments during the flashback and witness an epic battle between Wolverine and Ghost Rider before they realize they’re both trying to achieve the same thing.

That battle, and the entire book, are brought to life by the immense talents of Geoff Shaw on art, Rain Beredo on colors, and Travis Lanham on lettering. The clash between Wolverine’s adamantium claws and Ghost Rider’s fiery chains is gorgeously visualized and Beredo’s bright orange flames especially pop off the page.

Percy has been excellently writing Wolverine and Ghost Rider in their respective solo titles for some time and it’s only fitting to have these two characters, who love to claim that they’re loaners, team up for a mission to deal with a demonic force straight from the pits of hell. I wasn’t expecting to enjoy this duo as much as I did but I’m really looking forward to seeing the rest of this story come to life.

Rating: 9/10 more

A fairly strong start to this crossover. I appreciated how much Percy delved into the backstory here before tying things back to the present. I'm interested to see how the story presented here ties in with the tease at the end of Ghost Rider #16, as well.

A seemingly stand-alone, back to basics, type of crossover event that matches the tone and aesthetic of its characters with a strong central core.
I may pick up the rest of this as well for the spooky elements and the artwork!

this was actually very fun, exciting, and interesting. I like the story going on, I dig it.

Had a decent enough start. I liked the idea of the kid and it being based off something in the past.
