Ghost Rider #35

Against a deep starfield, Ghost Rider crouches atop his flaming red chopper as it launches off a rocky cliff's edge — skull ablaze, blue jacket tight against the cosmic wind — while a green-skinned adversary in an orange vehicle gives fierce pursuit below, and a massive ghostly skull looms ominously in the background. The cover tagline "Death Race!" says it all: this April 1979 issue promises a high-speed showdown set against a backdrop that feels genuinely otherworldly. Bob Budiansky's pencils and Joe Rubinstein's inks give the whole scene a sharp, kinetic energy that makes it easy to see why this era of Ghost Rider remains so compelling.
