man.. I love ghost rider, easily my favorite hero next to spawn, but this video made me realize how messy the lore around the origin story is now.. and now i realize why we only ever got the nick cage movies...
Man, there's so many bargains, double crosses, splitting up of powers and essences, reclaiming of said powers and essences, and sacrifices it's hard to keep track of who is responsible for what deal or what powers someone has from whom. A daunting task indeed.
Sometimes I forget that Noah's ark and the great flood are canon in Marvel comics. And then I remember that Ghost Rider's "Freind" is supposed to be Jesus Christ, it's too bad that Jared Leto is already playing Morbius in the Sony films. If he could make his way into the MCU proper, he'd make the perfect "Friend" when the MCU actually introduces Johnny Blaze.
While this is a great retelling of the origins of the modern Ghost Rider, Marvel massively retconned this by way of Avengers 1,000,000 BC in which they revealed the new FIRST Ghost Rider: an indigenous man riding a flaming whoolie mammoth. Also, because of this retcon, there have been Ghost Riders of different eras in history who are from different ethnic and racial backgrounds (i.e.a British Ghost Rider, and African Ghost Rider, etc).
For a story I thought began with the first appearance of Johnny Blaze, I'm amazed by all of the backstory that happened before it. I can't wait for part 2 next week. I normally prefer non-X-Men related videos, but this week, I'm going to ask for a video on LILA CHENEY, the mutant Rockstar. As always MAKE MINE THE MERRY MARVELITE!!!!
I was a Ghost Rider superfan and I have nearly the Midnight Sons era stuff, including every Danny Ketch. My favorite recent GR is Spirit Rider-- a Spirit of Vengence and Sorceror Supreme.
The brothers and their lineage suffered like Guts and the Hawks. Or Joestar family. Mephisto was Dio or Void while Blackheart was more like Pucci in terms of their roles.
Ghost Rider aka Johnny Blaze is one of my favorite Marvel comic book characters. Here's my top 10 favorite Marvel comic book characters 1. Deadpool/Wade Wilson 2. Wolverine/Logan/James Howlett 3. Thor Odinson 4. The Thing/Ben Grimm 5. Blade/Eric Brooks 6. Ghost Rider/Johnny Blaze 7. Iron Man/Tony Stark 8. Spider-Man/Miles Morales 9. Captain America/Steve Rogers 10. Black Panther/Prince T'Challa
I love how mouthy ghost rider is on mvc3 "The sun does not rise in hell goddess" To amaterasu "I eat demons like mundas for breakfast" To Trish from devil may cry "If you don't handle Loki, I will" To thor "Hell is calling Albert" To Albert wesker "Leave demon hunting to the experts, fool" To Dante from devil may cry "One of our flames will be extinguished this day, won't be mine" To dormamu "The darkness in your soul disgust me" To Vergil or Albert wesker, I forgot which one
Man! This video with all of its information, makes the Ghost Rider movies seem very, very bat**** crazy in comparison. No wonder why some people don't like those movies! 💀🏍🔥
After you finish Part 2, can you please do episodes on Stegron the Dinosaur Man, Sauron, the White Rabbit, the Kangaroo & Anya Corazon/Araña/Spider-Girl?
Hey there Merry Marvelite. Thank you so much for this great new video dealing with the character of Ghost Rider in the Marvel Universe. I found the information to be honestly very interesting, probably because I don't know that much about this character, due to the fact that I don't read that much of this comic character's title. Anyways, thank you once again for this Halloween theme video and I hope that you and everyone else in this community has a great day. Please stay safe, healthy and keep up the great work on these videos. Until next time, Peace Out and Excelsior.
I miss when it was simple. There was Zarathos and no one knew what Ketch’s Rider was. Vengeance should have been Zarathos. Ketch? Well, leave him a mystery. There’s no good mysteries in comics anymore.
3 minutes in and he's already more accurate then any Marvel Editor would have been in the last 30 years, Mephisto and Zarathos are originally angels, Lucifer of Garth's run is a liar known as Marduk much of what he says was infact not true, there's a point where all the demons are sitting around and Mephisto is talking to them explaining how the universe works referenced in Journey into Mystery627, he's above Marduk. Lucifer is one of the smaller demons around Mephisto, also one of Mephisto's names is listed on Marvel's Official list of 99 angels along side of Zarathos, also Uriel's head is on fire^^ Also Mephisto and Uriel are regarding each other as siblings^^ Also Lilith Mother of Demons2022 show's us the original Devil thrown out of heaven, it was Mephisto. This video is S tier.
@@arpineaslanyan4054 Really only one writer made it largely inconsistent, Garth wasn't really into Mephisto, but that Lucifer is Marduk, the grandson of Dormammu and a confirmed liar, also Garth wrote the best stories, but that's kind of the point of this Video right? you had all tiers of writers creating this mythos and many of them blatantly disagreed with each other. That's why I cited some sources. but you're not wrong sir.
2:28 wait, the Eternals played a role the story of Noah’s Ark? That’s honestly kind of funny lmao. Also, man, Ghost Rider basically being Marvel’s version of the Spectre is not something I was expecting to learn, but that’s pretty neat.
Are you going to do history of lesser known characters like Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Ultimo, Inferno, Zora_Vukovic Victorious, Flerken, Blacklash, Deathlok, Elematrix, Vertigo, Ahab, Orb, Speed freak, Masked Raider, Red_Wolf, Tarantula, Forge, Bishop, Lilandra, Adam-X, Sybil(Oracle), Titanium_Man, Crimson Dynamo, Dreadknight, Deathcry, Kobik AKA the Cosmic Cube, Blizzard, Avril Kincaid Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Starhawk, Fixer, Whirlwind, Chemistro, Whiplash, the Controller, Madam_Masque, Count_Nefaria, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Crossfire, Living Laser, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Can you do history of the Elementals(Hellfire, Magnum, Hydron and Zephyr), Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Inferno, Zora_Vukovic Victorious, Night Nurse, Lilandra, Sybil(Oracle), Marrow, Lady-Lotus, Sundragon and Phyla_Vell along with the Supreme Intelligence, Puppet_Master, Diablo, Mad Thinker and Angel Salvador/Tempest along with Exodus and Ex-Nhilo?
Can you do history of S'ym, Shroud, Master Pandemonium, Sleepwalker, D'Spayre, Lilith, Chthon, Mephisto, Black heart, Dormammu, Doyle Dormammu, Clea, Nightmare and Pkzkrfmknna along with Crystal, Magma and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice?
Are you going to do history of Ironheart, M'Baku, Namora, Attuma and Shuri as the Black Panther since they played a major role in the Black Panther Wakanda Forever movie?
Can you do history of the Living_Brain, the Elementals, Cyclone, Hydro Man, Molten Man, Puck, Ahab, Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Noh-Varr Marvel_Boy, Starbrand, Nightmask, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Crossfire, Living Laser, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Can you do history of Ironheart, Amatsu-Mikaboshi, Arno_Stark Iron Man, Squirrel_Girl, Constrictor, Deathlok, Amadeus_Cho, the Griever, Pepper Potts AKA Rescue and the Agents of Atlas along with Crescent, Morgan_Le_Fey, White Fox and Luna Snow?
Well, he is Merry Marvelite. Plus that company alone has a lot of history to go through from Timely, Atlas, all subsidiaries and purchased companies, and Marvel. It is a lot for one person to tackle 💜
@MattRNewcomb This exactly It also doesn't help that DC takes a different approach to their stories especially over long periods of time An example a friend told me that imo works well "DC is like a company doing construction and most of the time they would rather dig up and completely renovate the existing foundation and change it up while keeping some aspects the same, Meanwhile marvel would rather just maintaining the foundation and build more new stuff on top of it instead, Although both aren't set In their ways these are the most likely outcomes" Basically in the grand scheme of things marvel is simpler especially for consistent UA-cam content of this caliber from a relatively smaller channel
It always amuses me how all these carnivals, colleges, labs, etc had no name at the time of 1st publication, but later got conveniently tied together by modern writers. Also interesting how Drake Shannon, the man later to become the Orb, was never mentioned in any of the flashbacks which could also have explained certain characters, like Crash Simpson's actions. And didn't Johnny's mother have another child, Jennifer Kale, who became a sorceress?
Can’t wait for Danny Ketch next week!!! Happy Halloween everyone!!! 👻
NOBODY CONNECTS THE MARVEL UNIVERSE TOGETHER LIKE MERRY MARVELITE .. WHICH IS WHY THIS CHANNEL IS 'EXCELSIOR' ..
Correct. He is the BEST at this format. Never give up
Your needed
Man, the backstory of the Ghost Riders is much more complex than I thought. But it is fascinating history.
The real demon behind everything here is Retconvius. This stuff was hard to understand when it was new, i remeber that
This was excellent. The Ghost Rider characters have a special place in my heart and this was glorious nostalgia. Thank you MM
man.. I love ghost rider, easily my favorite hero next to spawn, but this video made me realize how messy the lore around the origin story is now.. and now i realize why we only ever got the nick cage movies...
Anyone else wanna see MM do an episode on Marvel’s Dracula?
Thanks MM. Again, you'll always have a great time learning about the marvel universe listening to MM
Great to see the updated and improved version of of an OG video. Hoping to see more in the future like Ka-Zar, Juggernaut, or Doctor Octopus
part ONE!? holy fuck I'm gonna bust. Best Marvel channel out there!
Yep👍🦸🌟🔥
Thank you love Ghost Rider
Man, there's so many bargains, double crosses, splitting up of powers and essences, reclaiming of said powers and essences, and sacrifices it's hard to keep track of who is responsible for what deal or what powers someone has from whom. A daunting task indeed.
quickly becoming my favorite part of Fridays

Covering Hell Lords would be neat.
Oh my gosh that was so complicated in the beginning
Thanks for the video ❤

Thank you for making this MM 💜 Loved this and can’t wait for part 2 (Will Goose Rider & Ghost Rider 2099 show up?!)

Truth is stranger than fiction...
"Spirit Of Vengeance"

Please keep making more videos about Ghost Rider, I love the character but sometimes it can be so confusing and convoluted.
We can thank Howard Mackie for that, that's when it gets so confusing.

Outstanding breakdown as usual !
This was sweet.
After you finish Part 2, can you please do episodes on Stegron the Dinosaur Man, Sauron, the White Rabbit, the Kangaroo & Anya Corazon/Araña/Spider-Girl?
Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?
Are you going to do history of Mephisto and his son Blackheart?
Excellent job. Happy Halloween 🎃👻

What's the best thing about Ghost Rider and who's the best one? Which one of their powers and abilities do you think is the best?
This was amazing.
One of my favourites EVER
The first ever superhero I saw and my personal favorite one!
I miss when it was simple. There was Zarathos and no one knew what Ketch’s Rider was.
Vengeance should have been Zarathos. Ketch? Well, leave him a mystery. There’s no good mysteries in comics anymore.
I keep saying it, but it's true. This channel is like watching The Official Handbook Of The Marvel Universe!
Can you make a Marvel rivals character wishlist and can you cover deathlock.
aw hell yeah
EXCELSIOR!!!
Can you do The Punisher or Nick Fury OG Nick Fury not the black one
3 minutes in and he's already more accurate then any Marvel Editor would have been in the last 30 years,

This video is S tier.
Mephisto being the original fallen is inconsistent af

I was going to do a Ghost rider soon I am passing on it this is TOO good lol
I would like to see a part 2 of ghost rider story.
2:28 wait, the Eternals played a role the story of Noah’s Ark?
That’s honestly kind of funny lmao.
Also, man, Ghost Rider basically being Marvel’s version of the Spectre is not something I was expecting to learn, but that’s pretty neat.
What about the ghost rider from Avengers 1,000,000 BC? What’s his story?
WHOOA 🎃🎃🎃🎃
Can you redo captain Britain and make it longer like 20 min or put it in a poll
So what's the deal with the prehistoric Ghost Rider?
Have you ever done Nighthawk/Kyle Richmond/the Squadron Supreme/Sinister?
I thought since Venom 3 was released around the same time, he'd do a video dedicated to Knull and the xenophages !
Same here
Mona Simpson? That's Homer's mother's name!
Ghost Rider's history is all messed up, Thanks to MM to clarify the history.
his origin is a mess. Zarathos is a demon confirmed by damion hellstorm yet then it says hes not from hell or heaven
wow the movie really skimmed down the story of the Ghost Rider.
none of these people even look like Nic Cage
So when are you going to do history of Zora_Vukovic Victorious since you did the history of Dr_Doom?
Damon not diamond .. *sigh 🤷🏼♀️🙄🙄🙄
Which actor do you think should play Johnny Blaze as the Ghost Rider in the MCU like either Keanu Reeves or Ryan Gosling compared to Nicolas Cage?
Are you going to do history of lesser known characters like Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Ultimo, Inferno, Zora_Vukovic Victorious, Flerken, Blacklash, Deathlok, Elematrix, Vertigo, Ahab, Orb, Speed freak, Masked Raider, Red_Wolf, Tarantula, Forge, Bishop, Lilandra, Adam-X, Sybil(Oracle), Titanium_Man, Crimson Dynamo, Dreadknight, Deathcry, Kobik AKA the Cosmic Cube, Blizzard, Avril Kincaid Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Starhawk, Fixer, Whirlwind, Chemistro, Whiplash, the Controller, Madam_Masque, Count_Nefaria, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Crossfire, Living Laser, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Can you do history of the Elementals(Hellfire, Magnum, Hydron and Zephyr), Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Inferno, Zora_Vukovic Victorious, Night Nurse, Lilandra, Sybil(Oracle), Marrow, Lady-Lotus, Sundragon and Phyla_Vell along with the Supreme Intelligence, Puppet_Master, Diablo, Mad Thinker and Angel Salvador/Tempest along with Exodus and Ex-Nhilo?
Can you do history of S'ym, Shroud, Master Pandemonium, Sleepwalker, D'Spayre, Lilith, Chthon, Mephisto, Black heart, Dormammu, Doyle Dormammu, Clea, Nightmare and Pkzkrfmknna along with Crystal, Magma and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice?
Pastor Destin Kale is an absolute trash bag.
Are you going to do history of Ironheart, M'Baku, Namora, Attuma and Shuri as the Black Panther since they played a major role in the Black Panther Wakanda Forever movie?
Can you do history of the Living_Brain, the Elementals, Cyclone, Hydro Man, Molten Man, Puck, Ahab, Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Noh-Varr Marvel_Boy, Starbrand, Nightmask, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Crossfire, Living Laser, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Can you do history of Ironheart, Amatsu-Mikaboshi, Arno_Stark Iron Man, Squirrel_Girl, Constrictor, Deathlok, Amadeus_Cho, the Griever, Pepper Potts AKA Rescue and the Agents of Atlas along with Crescent, Morgan_Le_Fey, White Fox and Luna Snow?
Which movie or TV Show do you think did a great job in portraying Ghost Rider? Was the live action movie featuring Nicholas Cage the best ones?
What would have happened if Johnny Blaze learned about his siblings and tried to find them? What would those two say about him being a Ghost Rider?
Does the story of Zarathos and the spirit of vengeance from the past sound convoluted like how many of you understood this?
Why don't you do a channel for the history of the DC universe like this with all the characters DC's University is even more epic
Well, he is Merry Marvelite. Plus that company alone has a lot of history to go through from Timely, Atlas, all subsidiaries and purchased companies, and Marvel. It is a lot for one person to tackle 💜
Cause marvel comics better.
@MattRNewcomb
This exactly
It also doesn't help that DC takes a different approach to their stories especially over long periods of time
An example a friend told me that imo works well
"DC is like a company doing construction and most of the time they would rather dig up and completely renovate the existing foundation and change it up while keeping some aspects the same,
Meanwhile marvel would rather just maintaining the foundation and build more new stuff on top of it instead,
Although both aren't set In their ways these are the most likely outcomes"
Basically in the grand scheme of things marvel is simpler especially for consistent UA-cam content of this caliber from a relatively smaller channel
How was Johnny Blaze wasn't cursed when he he became a Ghost Rider but a spirit of vengeance? Who was the best Ghost Rider before him?
This is B. S..., I'm a ghostrider fan and this isn't the ghostrider origins
It always amuses me how all these carnivals, colleges, labs, etc had no name at the time of 1st publication, but later got conveniently tied together by modern writers. Also interesting how Drake Shannon, the man later to become the Orb, was never mentioned in any of the flashbacks which could also have explained certain characters, like Crash Simpson's actions. And didn't Johnny's mother have another child, Jennifer Kale, who became a sorceress?
Isn’t earth golem sort of redundant
