1.0 out of 5 stars No respect, November 5, 2009

By	Eric Holden - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book much like the current ongoing series just spits in the face of Ghost rider continuity. While the ongoing can be forgiven to some extent because Jason Aaron was left in a very bad spot to work from by the previous writer. This book does things that just can not be justified. Most importantly the writer seems to be under the impressions that when Danny becomes Ghost Rider he's in control. This has NEVER been the case for Danny EVER. Reading even a single issue (which aparently was too much for this writer) of a comic featuring the Danny Ghost Rider you will see that Ghost Rider is very clearly his own character with his own set of feelings and character traits. Ghost Rider and Danny even talk at points. Because of this fact this books whole premise is just nonsensical.

Beyond not matching up in anyway with continuity the portrayel of Danny in this is poor the the writing just in general just makes par. There's nothing really great nothing to amaze. If your a Ghost Rider fan I'd skip this (along with the whole current series) and just read the old Danny and Johnny stuff.
