In "The Lonesome Death of Johnny Blaze!", a 1980 Marvel classic, Johnny Blaze lives a double life—working at Langtree Motors by day, haunted by a forgotten past by night. When a high-stakes race with a rival mechanic stirs long-buried memories, Johnny’s past erupts in a shocking confrontation, forcing him to become Ghost Rider just in time. Written by Michael Fleisher and illustrated by Don Perlin, with colors by Ben Sean and letters by Diana Albers, the issue’s cover by Bob Budiansky and Bob Wiacek captures the moment of reckoning.
