Mythos: Ghost Rider

Part of Marvel's Mythos line, this 2007 one-shot reimagines the origin of the Ghost Rider through the lens of classic legend and fable, with a painterly, storybook style from artist Paolo Rivera. Writer Paul Jenkins distills the character's supernatural roots into a timeless, almost folkloric tale, emphasizing the curse and transformation of Johnny Blaze. The issue stands as a concise, visually striking entry point for readers interested in the mythic underpinnings of a classic Marvel antihero.
