Johnny Blaze, now freed of the
curse of the Ghost Rider, stands in the desert, taking in the fresh air for the
first time in years….
In Dayton, Ohio, Sin, possessed by
the spirit of Skadi and her Nazi war machines are terrorizing the city. He
followers ask if they should destroy the news copter overhead and she says not
to, let the world see what’s happening. Her henchmen Blackout and Deathwatch
are enjoying taking part in the reign of terror when the new Ghost Rider
appears before them. They note that this one is a woman and look forward to
killing her but she dashes toward them, clutching a handlebar—which explodes
into the flaming motorcycle. She passes them and stops, the cycle vanishing.
She explains that she has marked them, they now feel all the suffering they
have given to others in their lifetimes. The villains beg for mercy and she
swiftly decapitates them with a scythe. Then GR spies two humans watch from a
ruin and tells them they will be punished for their sins, sending them
screaming away. Then Skadi hits Ghost Rider from behind and as she is about to
deliver a second blow, the blazing motorcycle crashes into her. Then the Nazis
open fire on GR and the cycle. Ghost Rider wraps Skadi in her chain, forcing
her to feel the grief she has caused others. GR picks up Skadi’s hammer and the
shock causes her to faint and resume her human form. Skadi notes that GR is
full of anger and will cause great destruction and doesn’t know it yet. Skadi
then gives her henchmen permission to destroy the news copter….
In the desert, Johnny Blaze feels
the storm coming. He enters his cabin and meets Mephisto, who tells him that
Johnny has just damned the entire human race so they are going to save them
together….
