FLAVOR TEXT: Ghost Rider

in , , , ,

He's dangerous, he's angry, he's on fire, and he has a skull face covered in the literal fires of Christian Hell. That's right kids, it's time we (finally) break down everyone's favorite #edgelord, Ghost Rider! Fun fact: You may know the Spirit of Vengeance as Jonny Blaze (i.e. Nic Cage in the movie) or Robbie Reyes from Agents of SHIELD. Well, there have actually been 22 documented Ghost Riders throughout Marvel's run of the character, making Ghost Rider one of the oldest and most prevalent figures in the entire Marvel universe!

Last month, we asked the question "Which superhero would be a terrible roommate?" So, it stands to reason that it's worth playing in that opposing headspace by asking "Which supervillain would be an awesome roommate?" Imagine just hanging out watching Storage Wars doing bumps of The Power Cosmic with Galactus while your bro Toad cleans the bugs from your shared living space, all the while Apocalypse is channeling you full of otherworldy strength enough to carry 10-ton limestone blocks.

in , , ,

Has anyone ever stopped to think about how X-Men is basically just The Real World But With Explosions? Yes, the ever-evolving war between Human and Mutant is interesting or whatever...but it's time we know more about the minutiae of co-habitation with a mutant who has godlike powers. How much hair would be strewn about Beast's apartment? How does Colossus not break every couch he sits on? And, how many dang TVs does Gambit have to blow up before it comes out of his half of the security deposit?
