Ghost Rider / Blaze: Spirits of Vengeance #21
In "Change Is In the Air," John Blaze and Clara race to New York after Clara receives a vision of Kody in danger, only to find him locked in a brutal fight against a creature eerily like himself—his own brother. As the truth unfolds, Kody reveals he’s been running from his family to protect those he cares about, and when his past catches up, John must stand by him even as old wounds and new betrayals flare. Written by Howard Mackie and illustrated by Henry Martinez with inks by Bud La Rosa, this emotionally charged issue deepens the bonds between the spirits of vengeance and the cost of loyalty. The cover by Henry Martinez and Bud La Rosa captures the moment’s intensity, a storm of shadow and resolve.
