GHOST RIDER VARIANT COVERA day after the Ghost Rider movie trailer debuted online, Marvel Comics on Wednesday unveiled Marc Silvestri's variant cover to Ghost Rider #1.
The cover will be available in a finished version and a sketch version.
The series, which launches on July 12, is written by Daniel Way, with art by Mark Texeira and Javier Saltares.
Here's how Marvel describes the issue:
"Once upon a time, Johnny Blaze made a deal with the Devil...and to no one's surprise but his own, he got shafted. Now trapped in hell, with the Spirit of Vengeance bonded to his immortal soul and weighing him down, Johnny may have finally found a way out. But at what cost? From the depths of Hell to the glittering spires of Heaven, the Ghost Rider rides again in his first ongoing series in nearly a decade, blazing new trails and dispensing fiery vengeance in his wake. The demonic team of Daniel Way, Mark Texeira and Javier Saltares reunite to put ol' Flamehead back in the saddle where he belongs."
