Nightmare Fuel / All-New Ghost Rider

Go To

  • The first issue has Robbie surrendering to what he thinks are the police...only to be shot a dozen times. His dead body is left beside a flaming car and then gets set on fire, too, completely consuming his flesh, until all that's left is bone. And then he wakes up screaming.
    • In a roundabout way, #8 adds weight to why Robbie fled from the police to begin with in #1, this time with a glimpse of what Gabe Reyes' life is like without Robbie taking care of himnote .
  • In the following issue, Mr. Hyde punishes a subordinate for a relatively small failure by tearing his eye out before giving it to his new second in-command as a warning...
    • Making it possibly worse, we don't actually see the eye being removed, but we do get to hear it, and see a bloody-handed Hyde spit the eye out and give it over.
  • Grumpy's grotesque transformation after ingesting dozens of Zabo's pills makes the latter's transformation into Mr. Hyde look tame in comparison.
  • The fight between Grumpy and Hyde is brief, violent, and...messy to say the least.
  • Hyde reverting back to Zabo after he stubbornly tries to ingest some pink pills against the latter's wishes.
  • Some stray animals eat pink pills left over from Engines of Vengeance. Highlights include a huge, two-headed rat and a truck-sized, cannibal parrot
  • Eli taking over Robbie's body and approaching an oblivious Gabe with a hammer and screwdriver.
  • Lisa takes Gabe to buy some medicine and leaves him in the car. But when she comes back, he is gone. Made worse because in just a short amount of time she took her eyes from him Eli convinced him to take an elevator to the top of a skyscraper and then jump to his death.
    • Made worse by the fact that afterwards, Gabe is able to transform into a monstrous Ghost Rider form that Eli is trying to use to satisfy his desire to kill. This shows two things. One, Gabe indeed died from that fall and was brought back by Eli. And two, Eli was perfectly willing to trick a disabled child into committing suicide so he could convince said child's new superpowered self to commit murder in the name of "justice". If Eli abusing Gabe while possessing Robbie didn't hurl him over the Moral Event Horizon for you, this will.
  • The punishments Ghost Racers receive if they fail to win first place. From what little we've seen, they include getting pelted with machine gun fire, having red-hot hooked chains lodged into you, impalement by power drill, and getting rained on by acid.
