X-/Ghost Rider Crossover – Part 4 of 4 - "Vengeance. Pure and Simple!" Guest-starring the X-Men. Written by Howard Mackie. Art by Ron Wagner and Mike Witherby. Story continued from X-Men (1991 1st Series) #9. Ghost Rider in the X-Men search through the catacombs and find the Guild's children bound by the Brood. As the other X-Men free the children, Gambit, Wolverine, and Ghost Rider leave to hunt down the Brood Queen for her role in Bella Donna's death. Within the void, Dan's spirit recovers from Ghost Rider's possession by the Brood. Outside the city, Clara Menninger notifies Johnny Blaze of Ghost Rider's presence in New Orleans. Blaze tells Clara to inform his wife that he will catch up at their next stop in Providence, Rhode Island, then rides off. The black garb assassin and more Brood drones soon surround Ghost Rider, Gambit, and Wolverine, and even more drones attack the other X-Men. Ghost Rider's group dispatches their foes, but they are prevented from chasing the assassin by the arriving Brood Queen. The Queen speeds back to where the children were held, but Ghost Rider leashes her with his chain and tows her above ground. The Brood Queen is destroyed by the combined efforts of Ghost Rider, the X-Men, and the arriving Blaze. Gambit swears a debt of honor to Ghost Rider before he and Blaze ride off, but the assassin, watching overhead, swears vengeance on them all. 32 pages, FC. Cover price $1.75.

Australian Price Variant. "Death Duel!" Written by Howard Mackie. Art by Mark Texeira and Andy Kubert. Deathwatch, Hag and Troll abduct Snowblind from his hospital room. Meanwhile, Ghost Rider rescues a hostage from a crazed drug dealer. Later, he transforms into Dan and calls Johnny Blaze. Instructs Blaze to get his journal to Francis if anything happens to him. Snowblind awakens in Deathwatch's hideout to find he is among dozens of Deathwatch's other captives, awaiting a sacrificial ceremony. Elsewhere, Dan is getting his affairs in order, mentally preparing himself for the ultimate battle. Prowling Greenwich Village's streets, Dan hears the cry of one of Deathwatch's victims and transforms into Ghost Rider. Deathwatch calls upon Hag and Troll to " tenderize" Snowblind, but their torture is cut short when Ghost Rider crashes in. Ghost Rider dispatches both soul-stealers, while Deathwatch drains the life from Snowblind. Not yet sated, Deathwatch turns to Ghost Rider, and they battle. Deathwatch breaks one of Ghost Rider's ribs and beat him with it, taunting him over his unwillingness to kill. Ghost Rider reminds Deathwatch that his reluctance to kill only applies to humans and punches into Deathwatch's chest. Deathwatch swells and explodes, with the blast destroying the building's top floor. Ghost Rider emerges from the rubble, wondering what the future holds now that so many of his foes are dead. 32 pages, FC.
