Today, the next
Haslab project will be revealed (
in case you've been living under a rock). It seems to be the toy community's
worst kept secret, as the
Hasbro Marvel Legends team has teased about it several times already themselves (the
Haslab logo with hellfire and brimstone around it, the
Ghost Rider 50th anniversary logo all over the place, several tweets about
fire and
chains...). So clearly, the next
Haslab is gonna be
Fing Fang Foom, right? Just kidding...
According to the rumor mill, all signs seem to point to the next
Haslab project being the latest
Ghost Rider,
Robbie Reyes, with his trusted ride, the
Hell Charger. But who is the
Ghost Rider? Here's a quick summary for you, so you can act like you knew all along when ordering the next
Haslab:
Ghost Rider, the
Spirit of Vengeance is the name of multiple superheroes (or anti-heroes) from the
Marvel Comics Universe. The most known ones are
Johnny Blaze, a stunt man that sold his soul to the devil Mephisto;
Danny Ketch, Johnny's half-brother who became the Ghost Rider thanks to a medallion on his bike (
huh?), and
Robbie Reyes, a car mechanic who was murdered and resurrected as the Ghost Rider by a ghost in his car... (h
uh??). His powers are
superhuman strength,
speed, a
healing factor, he can control
hellfire and his
chains, and has a '
Penance stare', which causes to anybody who looks into his eyes to feel the pain they have ever inflicted on others for eternity.
Fun!
The
Ghost Rider has always been a great character, and has had a ton of great
comic books,...
great
action figures,...
And
questionable movies, with
Nicolas Cage as the main character...
The
Robbie Reyes version appeared in the now defunct "
Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." TV series.
In the comic book, there has been multiple different rides, such as
bikes, a
car, a
horse, a
mammoth, a
taco truck...
There is also a
Cosmic Ghost Rider riding through
space.
Hopefully, you are now more familiar with the
Spirit of Vengeance, and ready to spend money on the next Haslab Project!
