These stories reveals much into the story of Blackheart, one of the main villains from the Ghost Rider movie. The story tells of how Blackheart seeks the help of Ghost Rider, Wolverine, and Punisher to destroy the lord of hell, Mephisto, so he can reign supreme and create a new hell. Of course, you can imagine what their response is. Read this story about an unlikely team-up to save the innocent and stop an insane demon from creating his own hell.
One of the best things to come out of Marvel Comics in the modern era. It is a morality play- and a very good one.
The action takes place in Christ's Crown, a sleepy midwestern town. It is here that Blackheart, son of Mephisto, heir to the throne of hell is reborn on our plane. It is also here that he decides to both depose, and surpass, his father. His strategy is to tempt and corrupt the new breed of hero- those that walk the razor's edge between Light and Darkness in the service of justice.
To do this he summons Ghost Rider, Wolverine, and Punisher to town. He does this with notes that promise them secret information on what they desire most. Unfortunately, for him, he has misjudged the men that he has summoned. When they all automatically reject his offer of unlimited power in the service of Darkness, Blackheart then resorts to corrupting the entire town to use against them. Here he makes one fatal mistake when abducts the one innocent, uncorrupted soul in town- and spills her blood while doing so. The heroes fight their way into the heart of Hell itself to rescue the little girl....
As Ghost Rider states in the story: It doesn't matter if there is an edge, or if we occasinally cross it. As long as the innocent are protected, our cause is just.
