Warning! This post contains SPOILERS for Avengers Forever #10While Johnny Blaze might be more well-known as Marvel's original Ghost Rider, the Avengers' Robbie Reyes is proving he should be the MCU's Ghost Rider given his new cosmic abilities. With Earth's Mightiest Heroes preparing for war against the Multiversal Masters of Evil, Robbie has ascended and become the uniquely powerful All-Rider. As such, his new role sets him up perfectly for the MCU's current Multiverse Saga.
As seen in previous issues of Avengers Forever, Robbie Reyes's Hell Charger was revealed to be incredibly rare, even among the Ghost Riders of the past who once rode sharks and mastodons. Likewise, the Venom/Red Skull hybrid Black Skull confirmed Reyes has no comparable variants in the multiverse. For example, there are multiple versions of Steve Rogers who became variations of Captain America, but there's only one Robbie Reyes who became a Ghost Rider. This led to Robbie learning and accessing his full power as the All-Rider, capable of traversing the multiverse at will.
Now, the new Avengers Forever #10 from Jason Aaron, Jim Towe, and Guru-eFX sees Robbie's Ghost Rider continuing his mission across realities to recruit as many Avengers as he can for the imminent multiversal war that's to come. Joined by a Deathlok in service to the mysterious Avenger Prime and a Tony Stark who became the Ant-Man of Earth-818, Robbie reveals just how much he can see as the All-Rider, knowing exactly which roads must be driven to achieve success.
Robbie Reyes' Ghost Rider Is The Perfect Multiversal Recruiter
While Ant-Man is hesitant to add more Starks to the cause, Robbie is more than confident that recruiting as many variations of Tony as possible will be a necessity. This cosmic awareness combined with his new power to travel the entire multiverse makes him extremely powerful. It also supports the argument that Robbie Reyes should return to the MCU after being played by Gabriel Luna in Marvel's Agents of SHIELD. Rather than Marvel Studios attempting to debut Johnny Blaze as Ghost Rider, Robbie's new powers would make him a prime Avenger given the current Multiverse Saga and the threat of universal incursions.
With Avengers: Secret Wars on the horizon, an MCU version of the All-Rider would certainly be a valuable hero to have on the roster. At any rate, there's already a stronger on-screen precedent for Robbie's Ghost Rider in the MCU than there is for Johnny Blaze. The new cosmic powers seen in the comics simply sweeten the deal.
