Demonicus and Mount Avarice. Azmodeus
comes to Mephisto and asks for the responsibility of taking care of Zarathos,
and the lord of the Netherworld sets a contest. If Zarathos loses,
Azmodeus gets him, if he wins, the demon suffers a 'minor penalty'. Demons
drag Johnny to them, and Mephisto separates him from Zarathos with the Sword.
Working together they must reach the portal out of his domain, and along the way
they defeat the Guardian of the Road of Lost Souls, oust demons that look like
Clara and Barton Blaze, and overcome Mount Avarice. But when the portal is
reached, they start fighting one another and end up going through together, and
are rejoined. The irony being, if they had walked through, side by side,
they would have remained separate. At story end, the minor penalty imposed
on Azmodeus turns out being blasted into oblivion. Cover by Bob Budiansky

COM: Origin of Zarathos and Centurious. GR, trapped in
Johnny's subconscious, is peeved about his failure to gain his freedom fro last
issue, when he is contacted by a mysterious voice who begins to fill him in on
his origin. How millennia ago, a tribe of primitives had released him and
he rose to power rivaling Mephisto. And how the lord of the netherworld
approached a local prince to act on his behalf to cause the downfall of the
uppity demon. While Johnny, out on the desert, sees an image of Vincenzo
and follows it to a house near the Oklahoma-Kansas border. He finds the
man inside, suffering in his mind, and they are attacked by Freak master's
minions. Back to GR's story, Mephisto claims the spirit of Zarathos and
the prince is left a soulless husk, and it is revealed that the story teller is
Nightmare. Johnny is captured by Renaldo, who tells him what hell he went
though after tasting Hell-fire, and shows Blaze the plans to turn him into a
half man-half motorcycle freak. Nightmare finishes the story how Mephisto
has used him as a pawn over the years and offers him a way out, and GR accepts.
At story end, Johnny tries to escape by letting GR out, but nothing happens, and
the doctors prepare to operate. Cover by Bob Budiansky and Dave Simons.

Vincenzo only to find Freak Master has taken charge of the carnival, and Ralph
isn't doing much to disagree. despite Johnny's proof to the contrary, FM
plays the innocent and blames everything on Renaldo and Steel Wind after
relating his own beginnings. The next day, as FM is creating the changes
in the Carnival, Vincenzo starts getting psychic emanations that there is
something terribly wrong. Johnny goes to investigate for himself, and is given
the tour of the expanded freak show, including the Pin Cushion Man, who Vincenzo
tips is really Renaldo. Johnny sneaks in that night and finds the secret
lab and his plans to turn them all into freaks when he is attacked by a pack of
half man-half motorcycle freaks. Johnny lets GR out and he wrecks the
place, and when he's ready to make FM pay, it is revealed that Ralph had been
the one who had been cruel to his parents all those years ago. Johnny,
regaining control, orders FM to clear out, which he does knowing that he had
broken Ralph for what he once did. At story end, as they are packing to
move on, Rocky arrives. Cover by Bob Budiansky

COM: 1st appearance of Holly,
and the Crystal of Souls. Origin of
Centurious. Rocky has come to find Johnny to enlist his help in dealing
with the Soul Eater who has pretty much taken over the home town of her
relatives. Ralph, who is terrified that GR might come for him next, still tells
Johnny his job will be waiting when he gets back. Despite Vincenzo's
premonition of danger, he goes with his old flame, and, after a run in with some
hungry wolves, they make it safely to Holly. Johnny investigates, even
having dinner with the preacher, but it isn't until young Charlie is affected
until he decides to act. At his next sermon, Johnny steps forward to have
his 'sins' removed only to have GR surface and to find that the person who
started the First Church of the Mortal Redeemer is
Centurious. The two duke it out until Zarathos can't hang onto this plane
any longer, and Centurious reveals the rest of his origin before sucking
Johnny's soul into the Crystal at story end. Cover by Bob Budiansky and Dave Simons.

COM: Zarathos is separated from Johnny Blaze. End of Ghost Rider
IV. Death of Sin Eater. Centurious has Johnny's soul in his Crystal,
and Rocky gets away with his body. GR surfaces, and he goes to get
revenge, while the church is preparing to take their ministries on the road.
Johnny meets Charlie's spirit in the Crystal, and GR and Centurious clash ending
with the church falling in on the demon. Centurious reveals that this has
all been a plan to get revenge on Zarathos for what he did millennia ago, and
that he plans to consign all the souls to oblivion. Rocky finds the nearly
dead GR, and it is realized that he will get weaker and weaker and perish
without Johnny's spirit. Donblue confronts Centurious about the fate of
his parishioners, and is left for dead by his partner. The failing GR, as
a final desperate act, manages to muster enough strength to split the Crystal,
letting the souls out (to return to their owners) and causing Centurious to be
pulled in. Still aching for revenge, Zarathos has Donblue put his soul
inside as well, and the two are locked in eternal combat. The town is
free, and Johnny is finally free, his possibilities boundless, and, at story
end, the Crystal sinks into the ground and comes into the hands of Mephisto. Final issue. Cover by Bob Budiansky
and Dave Simons.
