Numerous superheroes and antiheroes that appear in American comic books published by Marvel Comics go by the moniker Ghost Rider. The name was previously used by Marvel for a Western character that became Phantom Rider. The first superhuman Ghost Rider is stunt rider Johnny Blaze, who consented to commit his soul to “Satan” (later revealed to be an arch-demon named Mephisto) in order to save his father’s life. Blaze experiences hellfire consuming his body at night and when he is around evil, turning his head into a blazing skull. He unleashes blasts of hellfire from his body, usually from his skeletal hands, and rides a burning motorcycle. Eventually, he discovers that he and the demon Zarathos are connected.
