Dan Ketch and his sister Barb were fooling around in a graveyard on Halloween night,
when they ran across two groups of mobsters fighting over a mysterious suitcase.
Barb was spotted by one of the thugs, a villain named Deathwatch, and was shot to death.
Covered with his sister’s blood, Dan searched desperately for a way out, only to stumble
across an abandoned motorcycle. When his blood-stained hands touched the gas cap, Dan
found himself transformed into the fiery spirit of vengeance known as Ghost Rider.
