Ghost Rider #8

Marvel's self-proclaimed "most supernatural superhero of all" is front and center in this October 1974 entry, with cover art by Gil Kane and Dan Adkins that crackles with hellfire energy. The scene is pure chaos: Ghost Rider's flaming skull blazes as he's thrown from his chopper amid a brawling crowd, while a towering, one-eyed serpentine monster looms menacingly in the background and a smaller Ghost Rider on his bike appears in the upper corner for good measure. With the cover tagline promising that Inferno — "The Devil's Disciple" — strikes, this issue blends street-level mayhem with full-on supernatural dread in a way only Marvel in the Bronze Age could deliver.
