This is the book for all the fans of the Marvel Universe non-proper. The non-cape wearing goons. The guys that are in the dark. The guys that are below the radar. This is our bread and butter. And not a mutant to be found.

In this finale to the explosive story, Johnny Blaze is still in prison, and this time he's facing down Deacon with the powers of Samson and two biblical influenced knives that can cut through anything completely easily. Deacon is a powerhouse, but so is the Spirit of Vengeance.

Oh, and there is that little tidbit dropped by the murderous hell-following priest who mentions the Spirits of Vengeance (glee, seriously, glee when I read that) which just cranks the geek-o-meter all the way to a million in the hopes that Dan Ketch gets to be one and maybe even Vengeance himself can make a comeback. Anyways, Deacon makes quick work of the priest with the loss of his head, and goes to work on Blaze.

But that doesn't work as Johnny goes full-blown Ghost Rider this ish, and the fight goes every which way you can think. Ghost Rider attempts to use the Penance Stare on Deacon, but comes to a glitch, it doesn't work! Deacon is not ashamed of his past deeds, so the Penance Stare can't affect him. That sucks for Ghost Rider, as those giant blades go to town on his Skull frame and nearly rip him to pieces.

Which is all well and good, but Johnny decides to hide behind a bible and quickly trounce his enemy with the giant book of the lord. Which is hilarious to this atheist reviewer, as it reminds me of all the things I've ever wanted to do with the good book. Thank you Jason Aaron.

His name has jumped the rails. He's the writer to follow. The writer to behold. His Johnny Blaze is a force of nature, and his Ghost Rider is a terror that tears through anyone that doesn't give him what he wants. The entire prison feels his Vengeance as he unloads his anger on them in order to bust out, and the issue ends just as quickly as it began. Beautiful.

And Tan Eng Huat is a breath of fresh air on this book. Him and Roland Boschi have been revelations and completely fit the vibe of this 70s grindhouse influenced Ghost Rider comic. Tan is on for the next few months (I hope) and I really hope that they keep the two of them on for the long run. This book gets better and better with each issue, and there is just the hint of Dan Ketch returning (okay so he full-blown is shown on the next cover) that makes this comic reader of the 90s feel all warm and cuddly on the inside.

And by warm and cuddly, I mean it feels like my insides are on fire and brimstone will start seeping out of my pores. Wonderful book, gets better every month, READ THE DAMN THING ALREADY!
