BURNING OUT OF THE PAGES OF GHOST RIDER!
Since the dawn of man, she has birthed the worst of humanity's ills... Her kin call her mama while men curse her name: LILITH! And when all the thrones of every netherworld are united, they shall call her by a new name: QUEEN. With art by definitive GHOST RIDER artist ROLAND BOSCHI!
Rated T+
Don't miss this issue/mini-series as it will peel back the curtain and add to what is happening in Ghost Rider. Ed Brisson does a great job with the characters of Lilith, Johnny, and Danny by showcasing their situations and creating motivations. Looks like seeds are planted that may culminate in a potential Marvel event, so get in on the ground floor. Read Full Review
Spirit of Ghost Rider #1 is a thrill ride of intrigue and action that should not be missed! Read Full Review
It's a horrifically dark plot with killer work by Roland Boschi"if one artist gets Hell and the Underworld, it's Boschi and his dark and grimy artwork, just like it needs to be. Read Full Review
When it comes to one-shots and tie-ins for core titles, it can be difficult to know whether to take a chance on a side-story; however, Spirit of Ghost Rider: Mother of Demons #1 delivers more than enough story and pop for fans of Ghost Rider to fill in these pieces of the current tale.

Despite being billed as an origin story one-shot, "Spirits of Ghost Rider: Mother of Demons" #1 spends far too much time on continuing the "Ghost Rider" ongoing story and not enough time on establishing a unique history for the eponymous "mother," only saved by its artwork and colors.

The writing was basic, flat, and cliche'. I'm a fan of Brisson but this was an issue about Lilith and I feel like I got a Wikipedia entry that was hollow and shallow. Read Full Review
Less a Lilith special than Ghost Rider #4.5, but none the worse for that. Some good plot development and nice, stark language. The art is, like, distractingly good. I can't appreciate it fully because I'm already sad that I'm not going to get more of it when the GR saga moves on.
It's a good book and it was a lot of fun to read. I do think there wasn't enough character build for Lilith since the other half of the book is about Johnny Blaze and a little bit of Danny. Would be cool to see some other plans she's been secretly pulling off like say observing Johnny's reign over Hell and teasing her diabolical intentions. It could've been done in the main Ghost Rider series honestly. But it's a great read, definitely a good book of supernatural elements unfolding behind the scenes.
Honestly, this is just another Ghost Rider issue. Not sure why they didn't just release an oversized issue of that. I liked this though.
Jack O’Lantern was my favourite part.
