    Default PENANCE MEANS PUNISHMENT! Cosmic Ghost Rider Appreciation 2019

    Hey y'all. I decided to make this thread because Cosmic Ghost Rider gets a lot of hate on these boards... And to be frank, that hatred is undeserved. So let's give the Rider the appreciation he deserves!

    DC, please give Jonah Hex a new solo.

    I fully admit that i was one of the people that really loathed the thought of CGR but after reading his mini in one sitting a couple weeks ago I realized that I liked Francis. Looking forward to seeing him kick some ass in the new GOTG series.

    Well it's nice to see you came around! It'd be a shame if you missed out on such a fun character.

    Definitely doesn't hurt that visually CGR looks so badass thanks to Shaw.

    Yeah, his design has to be one of the best we've gotten in recent years.

    Great concept and design.

    Partially wish he wasn’t Frank Castle just so he’d be able to stand on his own two feet without that connection. Really enjoyed him in Thanos, was surprised to see he was sticking around but I enjoyed his mini too.

    In all honesty, I don't see why Cosmic Ghost Rider had to be Frank. There hasn't really been anything in the comics that proves he needs to be the Punisher (aside from that badass chest-skull design).

    Is it just me, or was the Cosmic Ghost Rider mini-series a great riff on "What-If?" stories and current Marvel trends?

    I agree, it's basically a 5 issue what if story, just also happens to be a great one.

    I like that he's Frank Castle. I like those previous connections. And I like what the character says about Frank: deep down, maybe he likes his place in the MU, maybe he doesn't hate the superheroes and weirdness of his world as much as he wants people to think.

    Yes, him being Frank is what makes the character work.
