Although Luthor has an advanced battle suit and is able to get his hands on many dangerous weapons, he has nothing that could defeat the Spirit of Vengeance. Ghost Rider could use any of his Hellfire weapons or his Penance Stare to easily defeat him. Sinestro is the archnemesis of Hal Jordan, one of the Green Lanterns. Sinestro actually used to be a Green Lantern and has held onto some of these cosmic powers. He wields a yellow power ring which enables him to fly, survive any environment, and create objects.
Although this ring must be charged often, he also has received an extreme amount of power from Parallax. He has the ability to alter reality and bend time, space, matter, and energy.
Black Adam is an antihero with very similar powers to Superman. He has superhuman speed, strength, knowledge, and the use of magic. Even without his weapons and extreme strength, Black Adam is comparable to a god, something which would definitely give Ghost Rider a hard time. Watch out for him in the upcoming film starring Dwayne Johnson.
Using his psychic powers and heightened intellect that seemingly gave him immortality, Nathan kept his family alive since the time his mother was first attacked by a group of Puritans.
Keeping his body from aging in a specially designed bubble, Nathan created an army of cyborgs, a spaceship, and a laboratory. But, what truly made Nathan one of the creepiest monsters Blaze faced, was how he reanimated his dead mother and kept both his parents as prisoners while threatening to telekinetically force his father to shoot himself if he disobeyed. Luckily, Blaze was able to blow up Nathan's compound and put him and his parents to rest. Once a Nazi scientist, Fritz von Meyer came across what he believed to be radioactive bees and attempted to take them under his control.
Unfortunately, they turned on him, ripped his body apart, and absorbed his consciousness. This led him to become a living embodiment of the swarm. Besides having control over a massive colony of bees, Swarm also created enormous mechanical bees to attack Blaze and the rest of the Champions.
The team was able to first defeat him, but Swarm managed to return to the spotlight to pester comic book heroes such as Spider-Man. Taggers is a writer and lover of all things comics. He has published others works online in the form of articles, reviews, and other creative pieces.

Robbie Reyes was able to enter into the empty armor of the Ghost Celestial and then using his power, he took control of the Celestial that same way he controlled his car in the past. Reyes also learned that he had not yet tapped into his full powers yet and that he might end up as the most powerful Avenger of them all.
Ghost Rider's key weapon is his Hellfire, which gives him the ability to form and create any weapon he wants out of the mystical flame. The most obvious example of a weapon that Ghost Rider uses is his Hellfire-covered chain, which he has mastered the use of over the years. However, Ghost Rider can construct just about any weapon from his Hellfire, from firearms to knives and swords. On top of that, Ghost Rider can form walls and other objects with the Hellfire just using his mind. He also has his motorcycle that is covered with Hellfire and Robbie Reyes can use the Hellfire to mentally control his car.
He also used it to control a tractor at one point to save people. Ghost Rider has shown over the years that he also has the power to grow in size.
This was clearly shown in Uncanny Avengers Annual 1 where the heroes were taken into Mojoworld to take part in a television show against their will.
However, Ghost Rider proved too powerful to keep under control and he broke free from Johnny Blaze's control and attacked everyone. While battling Thor, Ghost Rider then grew to a giant height saying that he has the strength of "the demon. When Johnny Blaze showed up to try to stop her from destroying Hell and therefore destroying reality , she had grown "half a mile tall" in her fight with Mephisto. When thinking of the various powers, skills and abilities of The Ghost Rider, one that not many people think of, or even know about, is that he has super speed.
This was really shown in all its glory in Avengers In that issue, Ghost Rider showed up when Johnny Blaze decided that life just wasn't fair and he was going to make it hard on others. He started out by catching up with X-Men founder The Angel, who himself was doing mph in his car. He then challenged him to a race and easily beat him before hospitalizing him.
The Avengers came to the fight, and in the battle, Thor threw Mjolnir at Ghost Rider and the Spirit of Vengeance was able to actually outrace it to get away before turning and catching it when it reversed direction. The entire purpose of the Ghost Rider is to seek vengeance against those who have sinned. The Spirit of vengeance doesn't just guess who might or might not have sinned, though. He has the ability to know when someone has sinned through both his eyes and nose. When it comes to the eyes of the Ghost Rider, he can see into the soul of any creature -- both the righteous and the sin-filled and judge their guilt or innocence on the spot.
He can also see the sins that the people will commit over the rest of their lives. Wolverine and Deadpool aren't the only Marvel heroes who have impressive regeneration skills. However, when compared to Ghost Rider, their regenerating seems very pale in comparison.
More like The Hulk, Ghost Rider regenerates entire body parts almost instantly after an injury. Following an injury, both Ghost Rider and Johnny Blaze immediately regenerate lost limbs in moments. While someone like Wolverine grows back limbs to great pain, Ghost Rider doesn't seem to feel anything as it returns to normal.
While Ghost Rider is invulnerable to almost all human weapons and devices, he does suffer harm from weapons that were forged in Heaven.
With most Ghost Riders, they have a weakness to holy items. Johnny wanted Roxxane and the kids to come back to life, and to rid of the Ghost rider curse.
Roxxane said he had much more to do back on Earth. Johnny is unhappy with the outcome. At the hospital, the Deacon is total paralyzed and taking to the Orb. Kid Blackheart is a strip club with Blackout planning how to take over the world. The nuns and guns who survived had vengeance on a leash. Zadkiel is brought to Hell. Johnny, Danny and Sarah had just saved Earth and the race for fun out in the desert.
During the event of Shadowland, Daredevil ruled as leader of the Hand. The only way for the Ghost rider to be free from the Kingpin and the black magic of the Hand, would be to take out the Hand.
Ghost Rider pays a visit to the Snakeroot Gang of the Hand , the ones responsible for source of the black magic. He confronts them as Johnny Blaze, he was killed and sent to Heaven. In a prior event Ghost Rider had just saved Heaven from Zadkiel. Heaven claimed that Johnny work was not finished yet, and they send him back to Earth. During the end of Shadowland, Ghost rider had confronted Daredevil in a strong demon form and is defeated.
Ghost Rider was a reserved member in a team called Heroes for Hire. Silver Sable was working on an undercover run was blown, Misty Knight sends back up of Ghost Rider to help assist. Ghost Rider help cleaned up hoards of gangsters and mobsters to help silver sable escape. As the events of Fear itself and the Serpent's wrath engulfs the Marvel Universe, Johnny Blaze is found exhausted and tired of his demonic curse.
He recounts the pain and agony he must constantly endure as a result of his daily transformations and laments over the fact that he has never been able to establish any true happiness during his long torturous career as the Ghost Rider. As Blaze is drowning his sorrows in alcohol, he is approached by a mysterious man who calls himself Adam and claims that he wants to help Johnny. Immediately Johnny calls Adam out on either being an angel or demon come to make his life even more tragic and complicated.
Johnny passes the events of Fear Itself off as just another typical skirmish between the "superheroes" and the "super villains," however Adam rebukes him and claims that this time it's something much bigger than that and that is the reason why he is present.
Adam offers to remove the Ghost Rider curse from Johnny and give him the peace and freedom he so eagerly seeks. Thinking that Adam must be working some sort of angle that can only make his life more miserable, Johnny refuses outright. After leaving both the bar and Adam, Johnny goes to deal with some rioters taking advantage of the global situation, but is badly beaten up when he doesn't take on his Ghost Rider persona.
Once Johnny wakes up from his battered state he finds himself even more sick and tired of his curse and honestly believes that no one can truly help someone else without wanting something in return. He calls upon Adam and decides that he does want to take him up on his offer after all. Johnny asks Adam what the catch is on the deal, and Adam simply tells him that there must always be a Ghost Rider and his curse will have to pass on to another.
Adam claims that he just wants to help Johnny Blaze, save humanity, and have a new start. He orders Johnny to swallow a piece of tree root and then drive as fast as he can to rip the Ghost Rider from his bones and rid of his curse. Johnny happily obliges and tears off into the desert full speed ahead shedding the the demon Zarathos from his body.
Adam watches Johnny and is happy to see the curse removed from the "redneck loser" and claims that the war on sin has officially begun.
Johnny lies in the middle of the desert elated because he can feel that the curse is no longer upon him and that Zarathos is truly gone. Johnny Blaze is the Ghost Rider no more. Alejandra became the temporary host of the spirit of vengeance. Mojo wanted to put together a new television show for his Mojoworld.
Ghost Rider rips thru Avengers mansion with his bike. Wolverine had said he fought Ghost Rider before, but did not win. The Avengers of the Supernatural placed bands over the Uncanny Avengers heads, and they were instantly teleported to Mojoworld.
The show starts off with Captain America and Thor as famous football players; Wasp and Scarlet Witch are the cheerleaders while Rogue, Wolverine, Sunfire and Havok are the unpopular outcasts of the high school with the nerds being Dr Strange, Manphibian, Satana and Blade.
Scarlet Witch had been secretly dating Johnny Blaze, the rebel kid on his bike. Scarlet Witch tells Johnny that she is pregnant. Johnny Blaze freaks out, and the Spirit of Vengeance totally loses it because he wouldn't have a child with her. The Ghost Rider is in full control and breaks the mental hold of Mojo. The Uncanny Avengers and the Avengers of the Supernatural also break free from the mental control of Mojo.
Ghost Rider is wreaking havoc and unleashing a Penance Stare for the entire sinful city of Mojoworld. Strange provides safety temporarily against the Penance Stare.
Ghost Rider takes out almost everyone by himself. Rogue becomes the new Ghost Rider, but cannot control it as it burns her soul and begs for it to be taken back. Johnny Blaze returns to human form and claimed that it is his curse. Everyone returns back to Earth at the Avengers mansion. Johnny is contemplating taking the curse back, until he is kicked into the Avengers pool. Everyone else jumps in the pool and they all have a great time.
Johnny Blaze was temporary recruited to help the Thunderbolts. The Thunderbolts team wanted to get rid of an unwanted member named Mercy and send her to Hell. The team looked to escape from Hell, but finds Mephisto the Ruler of Hell. Mephisto claimed that he had been stripped of his title of Ruler of Hell.
The deal was to take out Strong guy and put Mephisto back on the throne. The Thunderbolts win and everything is restored. Johnny Blaze decided that it was good for him and the Spirit of Vengeance if he tagged along as an official Thunderbolt member. Ghost Rider volunteer's himself to the team and his flaming skull turns to red to follow the Thunderbolts theme. Deadpool had drawn the choice of the mission, but Flash Thompson intervened and asked for the next mission. Flash had requested for the Thunderbolts to take down Venom the symbiote.
Once agreed, Flash had lost control of the symbiote and allowed Venom to fully take over his body. The Thunderbolts and Venom are stuck within the Headquarters of the Thunderbolts base. Venom runs and hides to pick off the Thunderbolts individually. The Thunderbolts knows the weakness of the symbiote are sonic sounds and fire.
Venom decides to attack Ghost Rider alone. Ghost Rider thought it was odd that he would be singled out due to his fire weakness against Ghost Rider. The Ghost Rider hesitated to use fire because he did not want to kill Flash in the process. Instead Ghost Rider tries to do the Penance Stare on the symbiote but passes out in the process.
Deadpool had a bright idea of painting spider man on his costume and leaving it on a mannequin. Deadpool hung a trap of a blackbird Jet falling on Venom if he tried to attack the mannequin, but the trap failed and fell on Deadpool. Deadpool goes and taunts Venom, and causes him to eat Deadpool and spits him because he taste terrible. Ghost Rider wraps his fire chains and drags Venom with his bike.
In addition, Punisher and Elektra shoot him with flame throwers. The finisher was the Leader with a sonic wave car and the Red Hulk thunder clapping creating a huge sonic blast towards Venom. The Symbiote is detached from the host. Flash believe that he should only live with the Symbiote as a curse. Flash approved of the performance of the Thunderbolts. He let the Symbiote take over, as a test to take him down in the future if needed. Flash decided to leave the Thunderbolts.
After Thunderbolts captured Doctor Faustus, Punisher left the Thunderbolts because they refused to kill him for his crimes. Frank returned to his Safe House, only to find out that Thunderbolts tried to kill him by planting a bomb. Seeking revenge against Thunderbolts, the Punisher confronted Ghost Rider.
Being happy and grateful that he can live a normal life, Johnny moved on. At a diner on Route 66, Blaze is approached by a shot man, who asks Blaze to bring the silver bullet to Hellstrom and then bursts into flames. Hellstrom follows some leads with Blaze, but most of his contacts were scared of something big coming.
With Blade as backup, the trio were following a lead at a used bookstore, when demons attacked. A bounty had been put on Blaze and the bullet, and whoever set the bounty needed them by the next night. This deadline was The Covenant, an ancient rule of engagement in the war between Heaven and Hell. One every thousand years, a portal is opened as a demilitarized zone, where emissaries from both sides air grievances and discuss terms. Hellstrom believes the silver bullet is made from the silver paid to Judas Iscariot and is needed to create a weapon to attack The Covenant.
They needed more intel, so Hellstrom sent Blade into a demon hideout with Satanna to get some answers. While this new team was separated, the demon, Razan, attacked Hellstrom and Blaze and stole the silver. Satanna got the name of a Nidavellir blacksmith, Ragnar , who was making a weapon from the silver for a mortal sorcerer, Necrodamus.
Interference would trigger automatic fail safes that would shut the door to Heaven forever, giving Hell free reign on Earth. Necrodamus fires a silver rocket at Michael, but Blaze steps in front of it, taking no damage and saving The Covenant for another thousand years. Doctor Strange took it upon himself to resurrect the city with magic, however, he also accidentally manifested Hotel Inferno , the hotel and casino created by Mephisto while Vegas was in Hell.
Mephisto was allowing gamblers to bet their very soul and was able to convince Strange to make his own wager. If Strange wins, Mephisto empties his vault of souls and returns to Hell. However, Mephisto wins when he effectively tempts the Avengers with their own wrath. To save Strange and Vegas, Wong and Bats collect a new roster of the Midnight Sons made of heroes that are either dead, damned, or carry darkness, including Johnny Blaze.
The rest of the team fought them off so Johnny Blaze could take on Mephisto. Mephisto immediately gets the best of Johnny Blaze by ripping the Spirit of Vengeance from him and throwing him from the top of Hotel Inferno, killing him.
Mephisto thinks he has the upper hand now, however, Johnny has been sent to Hell. There, he is able to free the vault of souls and steal the crown and throne of Mephisto. Cut off from his power, Mephisto was easy to defeat. With Blaze on his throne, Mephisto had nowhere to go, so the Strange and the Midnight Sons locked him up in his own hotel, still in Vegas.
In order for him to keep his grip on the throne, he needed more power. Taking advantage of an exorcism being carried out by Hellstorm at Avengers Mountain , Blaze pulled Robbie Reyes , Spirit of Vengeance and active Avenger, to hell to challenge him to a race, a tradition of Ghost Riders from the very beginning.
Reyes finally agreed after Blaze threatened his kid brother. Reyes was off to a good start, but Blaze has no problem cheating. He got his minions to attack Reyes, but all the best Riders defend Reyes since none of them have a very high opinion of Blaze.
With all his new found help, Reyes was able to best Blaze, but Reyes abdicated the throne. Blaze scoffed at him for giving up the throne and leaving Blaze without the power he needed to defend it from less noble rulers.
As King of Hell, Blaze spends most of his time tracking down escaped demons. After the most recent escape, Blaze bumps into his brother, Danny, on Earth, still possessed by a Spirit of Vengeance. Blaze offered him a chance to hunt down the demons with him, but Danny refused. However, after a vision of his dead mother and a visit from his police detective ex-girlfriend, Danny was convinced Hell had changed Blaze. Blaze was leaving the charred corpses of possessed bodies after sending demons back to hell all over the place, but Danny was convinced Blaze was just hurting civilians.
Danny was wrong, but Blaze was being poisoned. Every time he used his new powers as king, a piece of the wickedness of the demons he stared down would stay with him, causing him to become angrier and more violent. The two fought for a while until Blaze lost his patience and stripped Danny of his Spirit of Vengeance. Back to hunting demons, Blaze tracks them to Las Vegas, which worries Blaze that they were trying to break Mephisto out of his earthbound cage.
So, Blaze broke Mephisto out himself to keep him close by. They were working for Lilith, who intended to kill Mephisto as part of her coup for the throne.
