"Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance" (2012) is a worthy follow-up with Nicolas Cage returning as Johnny Blaze. Really, the only thing that was disappointing was the villain, Blackheart, who was seriously scary in the comics, but not so much in the movie. The first film was an amalgam of the ideas presented in these two series, mostly the first, and struck me as the comic-book come to life.
In 1990 a new version of Ghost Rider was introduced with a different character and it ran eight years. The book was canceled in 1983 after a ten-year run. Ideas were added as the years progressed, like the "penance stare" and Blaze's growing awareness of the former angel of justice, Zarathos. This was clear as the stories changed from writer to writer and one artist to another. When Ghost Rider came out in 1972 it was more of a general idea than a fully fleshed-out premise. The first Ghost Rider film from 2007 was fairly faithful to the comic.
