Ghost Rider #80

Ghost Rider faces something truly unsettling in this 1983 Marvel issue — the cover by Bob Budiansky and Dave Simons depicts a massive, skull-like stained-glass window filled with jagged teeth and crimson interior, looming over a chaotic scene of green tentacles ensnaring Ghost Rider himself, while a sinister figure in a bowler hat and a young woman look on in horror. Bannered as "Part One of the Most Stunning, Most Unexpected Ghost Rider Saga of All," this promises the kind of dark, ambitious storytelling that J. M. DeMatteis brought to the series. "The Eater of Souls" is a genuinely striking chapter that fans of supernatural Marvel comics will want on their shelf.
