Marvel celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month this year with ‘Ghost Rider: Robbie Reyes Special’

Created 10 years ago by Felipe Smith and Tradd Moore, the young Ghost Rider returns to comics in a Marvel’s Voices special.

Jason Aaron left Robbie Reyes trapped inside the God Quarry at the end of his Avengers run, but if you’ve been wondering what the former Avenger has been up to, you can find out in October’s Ghost Rider: Robbie Reyes Special.

The anthology, which will include the Marvel’s Voices branding on the cover, will feature a new story by writer Carlos Hernandez and artist Moises Hidalgo that not only shows what Robbie Reyes has been up to since getting stuck, but also how his family and friends have reacted to the loss.

The anthology will also include a new story written by Robbie Reyes’ co-creator, Felipe Smith:

Rounding out the special is a story introducing Fantasma to the Marvel universe. Fantasma was one of many “sidekick” characters introduced on a series of variant covers last year, and she appeared on the variant cover to Ghost Rider #19 by Luciano Vecchio. We’ll learn more about her background in the special:
