SPIRITS OF VIOLENCE #1: My Sisters Keeper

The Malevolent spirits of Hell are running wild as Ghost Rider is back, and Danny’s sister is at the center of the chaos! As Johnny, Kushala, and Danny Ketch prepare to fight them off, choices must be made, and strong connections will come to play once more.

Creative Team: Sabir Pirzada (WRITER), Andrew Dalhouse (COLORIST), Paul Davidson (ARTIST), and Travis Lanham (LETTERS).

The Story:

I was excited to see all of our various Ghost Riders together in one issue, and Sabir has them burst onto the scene in a fiery and haunting way. We are getting to dive into the deeper reaches of the Marvel Universe as Sabir is bringing out various demons and pulling deep cuts out to make this run stand out.

You won’t need to have any prior background in these characters as Sabir does a great job making these characters feel familiar and giving you the needed backstories that are needed to go forward with Johnny, Danny, and Kushala. I am excited to see where this goes!

The Art and Letters:

Andrew, Paul, and Travis take on the task of bringing Hell to the pages and panels of this issue, and they do not hold back. This issue gives off a lot of fine detail and linework as we see various demons coming into battle. The panels that stood out to me were the transition of Danny to and from Ghost Rider. The way they blended his face into human flesh and fire was extraordinarily detailed and great to see. The colors, panel to panel, all stand out and give way to excellent splash pages.

Final Thoughts:

Spirits of Violence #1 bursts onto the scene in a demonic and fiery way. There is something large and dangerous on the horizon that Danny must decide where he stands if he is going to overcome it, and thankfully, he is not alone. This issue is a must-read for fans of Ghost Rider and its lore!

Overall Grade: 9/10
