Marvel Comics Universe and Avengers #23 Spoilers and Review follows.

Avengers 1,000,000 BC, Challenge Of The Ghost Riders…

…The Power Of Boy-Thing and More!

Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze, the King of Hell, convinces Ghost Rider Robbie Reyes to race him for his powers by threatening his brother.

That culminates with all the old Ghost Riders from time confronting Reyes in Hell!

On Earth, Ghost Riders’ acolytes serving Hellstrom continue to attack the Avengers and take over some Iron Man armor.

However, Boy-Thing (derived from Man-Thing) seems to have quite an awesome powerset as he can bring the Dark Celestial base of the Avengers to life in a fashion.

The team is then attacked by a fiery creature from Hell who is…

…the Cosmic Ghost Rider from the future; an amalgam of the Punisher, Ghost Rider and Silver Surfer as I recall.

The book also has a cool look at the Ghost Riders of the past including the OG one in the Avengers 1,000,000 BC.

The Pulse:

A fun, action-packed issue with solid art. Entertaining. 8 out of 10.
