Highway to Halloween

Halloween is nearly here and this week we're ushering in our frightening events with the man whose powers were born in Hell's eternal flames: Ghost Rider. Read on for Ghost Rider's full kit breakdown, Halloween events, and a few other treats to gobble up.

Ghost Rider

Riding into battle next is Ghost Rider. The brimstone biker is a vengeful Brawler who stacks Bleed on enemies and avenges eliminated allies by attacking the foes who dealt the final blow. Ghost Rider is the newest member of the upcoming Supernatural team, which also includes Mordo, Scarlet Witch, Doctor Strange, and their new Blaster, Elsa Bloodstone.
