<li><strong>The classic 1973 <em>Ghost Rider</em> series is reprinted in full with this <em>Marvel Masterworks</em> volume!</strong></li>



<li><strong>Including a rare <em>Marvel Super-Heroes </em>story for a complete accounting of Blaze’s original adventures.</strong></li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The <em>Marvel Masterworks</em> proudly present the finale of the <em>Ghost Rider</em> series that burned through pages for a decade and made the demon biker an icon. In this volume, series artist Bob Budiansky is joined by then-up-and-coming and now-lengendary writer J.M. DeMatteis. They’ll make Johnny Blaze’s struggle to contain the vengeance-obsessed demon as compelling as ever with adversaries like the stunning Steel Wind. The true test comes when Asmodeus compels Mephisto to split Blaze and Zarathos. It’s pedal to the metal from there as Zarathos’ origin is revealed and Roxanne Simpson returns, setting up a final showdown that will prove the high cost of vengeance. Also featuring two rare Ghost Rider <em>What If?</em> tales and an encounter with the Defenders.</p>

These weird tales begin with a broken Eternity, evolve to include demons, Dracula and the Devil-Slayer, and culminate in a double-sized issue #100 extravaganza. If the Defenders can’t prevail it’ll be hell on Earth—literally! Collectively known as “The Six-Fingered Hand Saga,” it’s one of the most compelling Defenders adventures of all time.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>STEVE GERBER&#8217;S OMEGA</strong> <strong>THE UNKNOWN IS THE 350TH MARVEL MASTERWORKS!</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In the 1970s, Steve Gerber revolutionized comics. His innovative work on <em>Man-Thing</em>, <em>The Defenders</em> and <em>Howard the Duck</em> opened creative avenues that excited readers and inspired a generation of creators. So, when Marvel announced an all-new character co-created by Gerber, anticipation was fever pitch. <em>Omega the Unknown</em> debuted in late 1975. It featured an enigmatic approach to one of the most compelling stories: the stranger in a strange land. Jean-Michael Starling, a boy with a mysterious past, holds a curious connection to the super-powered being Omega. Their quest to understand the gritty world of New York City’s reveals as much about us as it does them. As their secrets are revealed and the action unfolds in the Marvel manner, you’ll come to understand why <em>Omega</em> holds a place as one of the most influential series of its time. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A NEW CAP ERA IN MASTERWORKS BEGINS WITH J.M. DEMATTEIS AND MIKE ZECK!</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">J.M. DeMatteis and Mike Zeck made <em>Captain America</em> their own in a celebrated three-year creative collaboration. Theirs is one of the Star-Spangled Avenger’s greatest eras and it begins when a Captain America movie causes our hero’s path to cross with a new Nomad, the Ameridroid and the Red Skull! Next, the American dream is under assault by an enigmatic force, and then, in a two-part tale guest-starring Spider-Man, the cyborg S.U.L.T.A.N. has his sights set on Washington, D.C.! The Defenders join up with Cap to stop the psychopathic physicist August Masters from embroiling America in war with the Soviet Union! Plus: Veteran Cap artist Gene Colan returns for a double-sized Annual that pits Steve Rogers against the Constrictor and Samson Scythe!</p>

Meanwhile, Earth’s Mightiest Heroes join the Defenders to take on Nebula, and ally with Drax the Destroyer in battle against—Thor and Moondragon?!? Two new members join the team (spoiler: it’s She-Hulk and Hawkeye!), and the blustery bowman gets right into the action in a classic team-up with Scott Lang, the Ant-Man, against the Taskmaster! And the Black Knight shows up for a stirring two-part tale. Capping off this volume is the miniseries <em>Vision and Scarlet Witch</em>.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Trapped in a Masterworks he never made! There were several worthy candidates for the milestone 300<sup>th</sup> Masterworks edition, but only one waddled away with election victory: Howard the Duck! In Howard, Steve Gerber and his artistic cohorts Val Mayerik, Frank Brunner and Gene Colan delivered one of comics’ most iconoclastic and hilarious characters. We kick things off in his inaugural Masterworks with his quirky first appearance as a “fowl out of water” alongside the macabre Man-Thing. Then it&#8217;s off to Cleveland where the Man-Frog and Hellcow lurk. The satirical stories continue with Howard and gal pal Beverly Switzler taking on dire threats such as the Space Turnip, the Beaver and — public transportation??!&nbsp; And then: Howard runs for president! All restored in Masterworks glory!</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>MARVEL&#8217;S QUIRKY NON-TEAM GETS THEIR LUCKY 7TH MASTERWORKS IN SEPTEMBER 2020!</strong></h4>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Doctor Strange and the Defenders face a crisis when the Eye of Agamotto is stolen by the bizarre Xenogenesis cult. If the demon worshippers succeed, the Elder Gods will be unleashed on Earth. Hellcat emerges from the battle with new powers, but they can’t save her from Membership Madness! Comics’ famous non-team begins a membership drive that brings a horde of heroes to their doorstep, and heroes always play nice with each other, right? Next, it’s off to Asgard where Valkyrie is split from her human side, leading to a struggle for the hero’s soul. We conclude with an other-dimensional epic revealing the bizarre world of Lunatik and a fight with Foolkiller that puts the future of the Defenders at risk.</p>
