Marvel had originally used the Ghost Rider name for one of their Western masked heroes, star of a 1960s series, but this new Ghost Rider was in a modern setting, was genuinely supernatural, and had no connection to the previous character.

[[redirect:ComicBook/GhostRider]]''Ghost Rider'' is a 1972 series from Creator/MarvelComics, published as one of the stories in the RotatingProtagonist comic book ''ComicBook/MarvelSpotlight1971''.

The stories, set in the shared Franchise/MarvelUniverse, introduced the titular Characters/GhostRider, a supernatural thriller hero. When stunt motorcyclist Johnny Blaze makes an ill-advised DealWithTheDevil to save his adoptive father's life, he finds himself cursed by Satan.

Each night, as the sun sets, he's transformed into the terrifying Ghost Rider, his head becoming a blazing skull. Each dawn he resumes his mortal form.

The series debuted in Marvel Spotlight #5 and ended in #11, when the Ghost Rider was promoted to his own [[ComicBook/GhostRider eponymous solo series]].

!!The ''Marvel Spotlight'' Ghost Rider stories contain the following tropes:
* BullyingADragon: In the first story, the Ghost Rider randomly passes two men committing a murder. Despite his flaming skull - which they dismiss as a gimmick - they decide that he's a potential witness who needs to be silenced and try to hunt him down. They keep trying even after he creates a flame barrier with a wave of his hand. Fortunately, the Ghost Rider decides to leave them and flee rather than attacking them.
* ExactWords:
** Johnny promised Mrs Simpson that he would never ride in the show - but not that he wouldn't practice the show's bike tricks at other times.
** Satan [[DealWithTheDevil promises Johnny]] that 'Crash' Simpson won't die of his illness. Crash, unaware of this, tries to make a world record jump, assuming he's got nothing to lose. The jump fails and he dies in the crash. Satan maintains that this didn't break the bargain.
* LastRequest: Mrs Simpson used her last moments to make Johnny promise that he would never ride in the show.
* OffingTheOffspring: When Satan offers 'Crash' Simpson a second life, the price is the life of his daughter. He does try to kill her, but eventually realises he can't, and that his resurrection isn't worth the cost.
* PlayingWithFire: The Ghost Rider can create flames with a gesture.
* SpeechBubbles: When Johnny is in his Ghost Rider form, his speech bubbles acquire heavy black borders with ragged edges.
