Why is it so hard for Ghost Rider to have a successful book or movie? On paper Johnny, Danny, Robbie, even the new girl, should sell.

Also this new captcha can blow me

He's boring

How so?

Figures /co/ fucking sucks about talking about comics outside of shitposting, memes, and general blanket statements of "its bad". This place has gone to hell

It's a mystery. Outside of Danny's initial super popular run in the 90's, GR's always been a cult following character. I suppose what needs to be done is to go back to that and try to get a hold of whatever magic Howard Mackie managed to stumble his retarded ass into to create such a hit.

He should be a hardcore Catholic, but also a slut, who takes no prisoners and fuck demon sluts.

>>151902681
Imagine how kino it would be if Ghost Rider teamed up with Spider-Man and took the fight to Mephisto
>>151903473
That's just Daredevil except he sometimes takes prisoners and doesn't fuck demon sluts

Unfortunately I think that was a matter of right place, right time. The 90s was the perfect era for Ghost Rider to thrive, people couldn't get enough of tough as nails characters who looked metal/undead or had some occult origin. People unfortunately don't really do that kind of stuff sincerely nowadays because they're irony poisoned and afraid of seeming too "edgy".

I've always wondered the same.
Always thought he looked cool af, I don't really see much reason for him not to be popular. Then again, I don't know that much about him aside a few stories and the movies.

I guess the writer's simply don't know how to handle him. Some problems IMO are:
>the Penance Stare is either too OP or does nothing
>he might need a clearer or more relatable motivation

>>151903263
People are always more eager to discuss more modern, popular stuff, so it's understandable in a way. Still, it sucks that most actual comics discussion often gets ignored.

>Imagine how kino it would be if Ghost Rider teamed up with Spider-Man and took the fight to Mephisto
This is the only right answer to fix that problem
>>
>>151902681
>Also this new captcha can blow me
do people really struggle with this captcha, like how
>>
>>151904058
Right? If anything I find it much faster than the previous one.
>>
>>151903882
Right? It would also give Ghost Rider a huge bump in popularity since he'd be known as the guy who saved Peter from editorial hell
