Product Description: The Ghost Rider: Complete Collection brings together every issue of the cult horror/supernatural comic. Stunt cyclist Johnny Blaze sold his soul to the Devil, to save the life of his best friend. In exchange, his soul was bonded to a powerful demon. Blaze became the Ghost Rider, using his power to fight demonic threats while trying to undo his curse. Years later, young Daniel Ketch met an angry spirit who sought vengeance on evil. This soul possessed Ketch & used him as the new Ghost Rider. Their adventures thrilled & shocked readers for three decades -- now they're compiled on this DVD set. Over 200 issues in all.
Pretty much every Ghost Rider book for 20 bucks. Why haven't you added this to your cart? If you're a Ghost Rider fan this is gravy. It's just too bad Marvel doesn't have a contract with this company anymore. I also have the Avengers and Captain America DVD's. It is sort of a pain that they didn't do single page scans, but this is sooo minor when you get nearly every issue on this disc. I say nearly, because it doesn't have current issues. This isn't a dynamic DVD that pulls in new issues after you receive it. An item like that I would give 6 stars to. I also reviewed this item here: [...]
I love GIT Corp I have most of the GIT Corp Marvel products, and I've been very impressed with them. It's too bad Marvel discontinued their license in order to launch their Marvel Digital Comics subscription service. I have both, and I like the completeness of the GIT Corp products, and the fact that you can see the ads from the original comics. Also, I can install it on a machine, and not have to worry about internet connectivity.
The Ghost Rider collection nicely collects the different volumes of the series from various decades. Ghost Rider has had different creative teams with widely different ideas about the character, so it was nice to have the complete collection to see the character's evolution and changes.
Scarily good collection! GIT really did a fine job with these comic collections. Too bad Marvel is now going totally online and won't let anyone have the actual comics in hand anymore. *sigh* Oh, well -- but if you can get it used (or from GIT), go for it. It's definitely worth the money!
The Ghost Rider Rides Again... The Ghost Rider was the story of the ultimate antihero. The demon possessed man driven to right wrongs and wreak vengeance on the wicked. I enjoyed these stories as a kid and now find them just as enjoyable. The second series unfortunately suffers from the same "crossover madness" that the X-Men and some other Marvel titles suffered in the 90s. Still a great buy for the price. Too bad Marvel pulled the plug on this type of format as I was looking forward to more sets.
The INCOMPLETE Story of Ghost Rider I wish so badly that I could give this product 5 stars but it can't be done. My disk has errors with at least 3 of the issues. This isn't a disaster but I paid for the complete collection; not the almost complete collection. Unfortunately, it looks like Marvel has stripped the rights to reproduce their books from GIT Corp, (Graphic Imaging Technology Incorporated), so it appears those who buy this disk are stuck. I'm left wondering, besides Marvel wanting to keep a tight fist around their property, that the incompetence of GIT has left them disenchanted? Certainly, it's a buyer beware situation with the product. Even if GIT wanted to remedy the situation they can't because they don't have permission to do anything about the corrupt files. See their forum and their non-response regarding a solution: www.gitcorp.com/forum. I guess all our hands are tide behind our backs?!?!?!
Is this a good buy beyond that? I begrudging say yes because it's truly fun to see the old issues and have it in a format, (although defective), that doesn't take up any real space. Buy your copy, but it will most likely be incomplete. BUMMER!!!
