Ghost Rider #38

Ghost Rider tears across a rocky landscape on his flaming motorcycle in this 1979 Marvel issue, his skull ablaze as he races toward what promises to be a dangerous confrontation. Above him, a menacing robed figure looms against a stormy sky while a blonde woman tumbles helplessly through the air — the cover's tagline, "Cult of Doom!", making the stakes unmistakably clear. With cover art by Bob Budiansky and Bob Wiacek and an interior story by Michael Fleisher and Don Perlin, this is a solidly crafted slice of late-Bronze-Age Marvel at its most atmospheric.
