THIS IS EPIC!!!!!!!!!! JAW DROPPING!!
Love the flame effects! Really need to get me some Paolo art.
A hotter piece I cannot imagine!
♫ "This girl is on fire
She's walking on fire ♫
Got to admit, he is striking a diva pose! Beautiful page!
Alicia's my girl! "No one, no one, no one...can get in the way of when I'm posting" ;) Thanks, James, and all, for the comments!
Absolutely burns the eyeballs. Insane!
I can FEEL the heat!!!! Fuego! Nice one man!
Well damn. Killer flame work, and killer piece!
Awesome page. Congrats.
No fear in ridin' and no fear of dyin'. I have all the faith in the world he'll make it because those straps are made of fire proof genuine Saskatchewan seal-skin bindings.
A perfect subject to have in full color! Amazing pick up! Congrats!
Beautiful pick up and excellent painted example of the modern master Paolo. Love how the flames are rendered! Congrats K!
Absolutely superb, K - scatchamagowza! As intense as the flames look on Johnny, the thing that really sells it for me is that top panel of the crowd in the bleachers, and the lighting on their faces & reflections in their glasses lenses. A wonderful shot to incorporate on the page, masterfully executed. Incredible work; please post an additional image when you get it framed! LOVE it!
Thanks, man, and totally agree! We've chatted before - some of the best pages are splashes that provide just a little panel storytelling to help frame (pun intended), and sell even (as you note!), the impact of the splash!
A stunning painted splash my friend!
Exceptional Ghost Rider splash, Paolo is awesome!
Beautiful page man!!!!
Incredible!!!
Spock always ran off to the circus on away missions. This irresponsibility is why they lost so many red shirts. Where does Ghost Rider land? You guessed it. Red shirt.
I remember you showing off this baby -- well freakin' deserved, man. Ghost Rider is a tough character who when rendered either is a home run or not good enough, one or the other... and we can safely call this art a grand slam !!
Talk about a splash page's SPLASH PAGE! Blaze in all his glory. Congrats. I adored this page on Splashpage for forever. Glad it's got such a great home!
I saw it awhile back, dug it for sure, among some of the other pages from the book, but moved on to other things. Chatting with my bud JN 80 a few months ago and looking at what he settled on as far as painted Rivera pieces...yeah...prompted me to go back and check..and it was still there. DONE! :) Thanks, Nash!
Rivera is a brilliant artist and has been consistently putting out great work for such a long time. Aside from this being a beautiful painting, my favourite part is the return of the one TRUE Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze! Kick ass, man!
It's funny, my first GR was Dan Ketch, with the release of that series in 1990, which I dug. But about a year later, a book called "The Original Ghost Rider Rides Again" was released, reprinting some of the original Johnny Blaze stories. Loved 'em. Loved the bike, but even more so, that leather suit. Classic. Just a perfect design choice for the character, and I'm definitely STOKED to have Paolo's rendition here. Thanks, Ruben!
This brillant and fiery piece needs to be displayed in a fireproof frame, far away from your other pieces! And UV radiation has to be protected from this piece and not vice versa! Pure Gold...
This piece has everything you'd ever want in a Ghost Rider splash, and painted so beautifully! Must be a sight in person. And yes, very appropriate for Halloween coming up tomorrow night. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Mwah ha ha HAAHHHH!
Oooh there it is! Amazing!
Love the shot of the crowd at the top of the page. Rivera makes sure he's not just focusing his talent on the page's main attraction. Top notch stuff here.
I'm on Fire just looking at this bad boy!!! Badass bud!!
fire!
Fantastic art! Love the glowing flames and the faces of the crowd!
Say what?!?!?! So freaking cool! congrats!
Straight fire, Kahlil! The Johnny Blaze Ghost Rider design is one of my favorite in comics. The spikes and chains are sweet, too, but that fold over leather biker jacket with the white edging is just chef's kiss perfect, imo. And in living color, no less! Is he jumping out of the pit and away from Zarathos? Love this layout. And I am 100% subscribing to that title. Ghost Rider coming back means I do, too. :) Blazing congrats!
Exactly! See my reply to Ruben's comment. The leather jacket, man...too good. Yes, perfecto, mtwah! I've been semi on the lookout for a nice bronze example...may have to drop the "semi" now :) Thanks, J - glad you like!
Holy crap, this is jaw-droppingly insane Khalil! I literally had the same expression as everyone in that top panel when I clicked into this piece. Amazing.
A painted piece by Paolo Rivera is rare enough, but this beauty is extraordinary! Ghost Rider has never been depicted in this manner; the fire seems to be burning him from within. Just an amazing piece. Big congratulations!
This is gorgeous! I need some Paolo art - nuff said! Congrats KG - thanks for sharing!
In my humble opinion, the best 21st century Ghost Rider splash page!
I mean...I wouldn't argue. Definitely value your opinion. No bias ;) Thanks, Carlo - glad you dig it like you do!
Superb + really striking and beautiful crafted image of our favorite Flaming Skull, huge congrats ! Must be a killer piece in person !
The use of light/flames is spectacular. I love its reflection on the glasses.
Killer piece, well done !
Paolo can do no wrong. There are so many amazing images of Ghost Rider and this sits in the top tier. All of it, the perspective, the crowd, the flames. It's stunning.
Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely amazing
this is really awesome!! congrats.
WOW!!! Congrats on getting this EPIC page!
For me Paolo's painted style is WHAT IF: Norman Rockwell did comic art. Great piece!
Solid pièce by the master - congratulations 💫
