Very happy with this, Ghost rider has had terrible art for years and just doesn't appeal to public but this is great.
Regardless of what Marvel say, Art is the thing that pulls a lot of people in.
The creative team doesn't exactly get me pumped but neither does it turn me off. I'll definitely give this a shot and see how it is. I sure hope it does better by GR than the last volume of his solo title did.
Good/Great artist- I'm intrested in how his style will look with these characters (Feel he best at drawning teens/young adults) & awful choice as writer..
Easily my most anticipated title from Legacy. This has been a long time coming and I CAN'T WAIT.

I have been paying no attention whatsoever to Legacy but this looks really cool.
Yeah! I'm in. I only know Victor Gischler from a Merc with a Mouth and I'm not at all familiar with the artist but I'm sold on the team alone.
I'm in. Loved marvel's nineties supernatural stuff
Apparently I'm the only guy who thinks david baldeon is too cartoony for this.
Given how honest-to-God painfully poor Gischler's last vampire project for Marvel was, this does seem like quite a bizarre move. Certainly a disappointing one in my book.
Curse of the Mutants was bloody awful. Truly.
The event that gave us vampire Jubilee. Which resurrected a pantomime villain version of Dracula only to kill him instantly for the purposes of a deeply contrived plot.
'90s styled' is not a look or an ethos to be trying to emulate. The 90s was, without a doubt, a decade of truly bad storytelling papered over with ridiculous Roid Rage visuals - which looked both dated and rubbish even a couple of years later, let alone the better part of 2 decades later.
Don't get me wrong I love Marvel's horror characters. But they deserve a proper, considered adult approach of a relaunch. On past form Victor Gischler would pretty much be the poster boy for 'Wrong Person to Do This'.

It's just a stealth mini. It's dead on arrival. I was looking forward to this when the rumors spoke of Ewing being given the title to reboot the horror line, but... yeah, I'm not gonna bother. I'll just get the trade. I bet 10 virtual dollars this will be cancelled before issue 3 hits the stands.
You guys are so negative lol
Turns out this book will only be a mini-series. 5 issues. Kind of disappointed, but here's the official solicit:

Well, good on them for advertising it as a mini instead of pretending it's an ongoing. I'll buy the trade surely.
