Ghost Rider 2099

[FlameHead]

Thoughts? Feelings? Memories?

hunter rider and I were chattin' about it in pm's. I don't know much about the title, personally. I have a couple of issues but refuse to read them until I can in sequence. I'm crazy like that.

It lasted 25 issues, so it must have been something...

[BIGGUN]

I liked it...a bit different from the supernatural GR....but a cool book. that chainsaw was a nice weapon.
also liked doom 2099 as well....that was going pretty good for awhile

[WarBlade]

It was the only 2099 series I read.

I love the origin. "Zero" Cochrane, kid, hacker, title character - Killed in the very first issue, only to find himself drifting as a digitized concious mind in communication with data entities in a forgotton place in some hidden corner of the 'net. He is given an ultimatum and accepts the pact: A download of all that remained of the mind of Zero into the body of a new high-tech combat robot.

And he finds himself reborn, the Ghost Rider of 2099.

Damn man, I gotta get to readin' them. If only I could find more where I live. Sounds like ebay is gonna get a visit.

[Hunter Rider]

WOW!!! Chainsaw's BIGGUN And from what ive just read about the story/concept i am really hoping for all the issues to be combined into a GN as that's my only hope of reading it.Usually when anything is messed with and stuck in the future away from what it was originally intended to be it sucks but this sounds excellent.

I'm Begging Somebody have mercy and Post some pics

[Hunter Rider]

Found some,There not great but hopefully some kind soul will post better ones











I noticed some of the other marvel characters on The 2099 site in particular Doom,Venom and a very cool Spiderman design,Were any of these other 2099 books any good?
My thoughts on the pics Of GR 2099 are that it looks very Terminator and i like

[FlameHead]

Thanks for the pics Hunter... they're grrrrreat, as Tony would say.

I have a few issues of the X-men 2099 line and I was really getting into it. I'll get the rest some day.

[Hunter Rider]

[Hunter Rider]

Some more covers.

[FlameHead]

More pics, more clicks. Right clicks that is. Right click, save. Save into my GR folder.

Thanks.

I didn't read any GR 2099, but I have a lot of Spider-Man and X-Men 2099's. I think of all of marvels "other" universes, 2099 was probably the most popular. I don't think anyone even remembers that Clive Barker Universe (Razor, I think) with Ectokid and the rest...they weren't very good.

[FlameHead]

I agree. The 2099 universe was pretty popular and very good, in my opinion. The X-men ones that I've read were very entertaining. I'm happy that the universe is still alive and well today.

[DBM]

I really enjoyed all of the 2099 titles but GR 2099 was one of my favorites. It was done exactly right in my opinion. Totally different origin but still kept the essence of the original character.

[FlameHead]

Which is always the most important part...

[FlameHead]

Hmmm... found these if anyone is interested. Found em here and they're for sale: http://www.luna7.com/original_sec1.html

I read the first 2 issues and frankly I loved them. Never got around to the rest though. I was a huge fan of X-Men 2099 from issue 1 on. I hated the abrupt ending the 2099 titles had though. THey all were canceled and then restarted in 2099 World of Tomorrow and that was just BAD!!!

I've always loved this pic:

[FlameHead]

I loved the X 2099 issues as well, though I too only have a few of them... much like my GR2099 collection. I hope to remedy that soon though as I really enjoyed what I read in the first 4 issues. It was just starting to get real good actually...

Love that pic as well. There's lots of cool images of GR2099 actually...

[Uncanny Orb]

I loved this series, sometimes I just read the whole run, it's very much like reading a movie.

[FlameHead]

I wish I had the whole run to read. They're impossible to find in my tiny little province... and ebay is far to addictive for the amount of money I have.

[Uncanny Orb]

Being the completist that I am I collected this when it was being published, and it turned out to be a great read, with great names like Chris Bachelo and Ashley Wood. If you get a chance to pick them up you should, they'll be super cheap, I've seen them for like 50 cents at shows.

[Crowley9]

I've read the first dozen or so issues, up until Ghost Rider got blasted to smithereens by Coda. Why? That's all that was published in this country. I hear the art took a real nose dive after that.

[The Black Mask]

i read some of the 2099 books

[NDX]

I only have issue 1 thru 5. I've been trying to get the rest of trhe set (read it only went 25 issues) for around 2 years now, but local comic shops suck around here, and eBay has screwed me over royally plenty of times. Okay, I'm just cheap.

But the first 5 issues are a great read.

[GraveDigger]

Does anyone have scans of Vengeance 2099? It has been like, What? 12 years? And I still don't know anything about him, Or what he even looks like!

[Uncanny Orb]

He looked nothing like the Vengeance from the second series.

Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:

They took the brain from a cop GR killed and put it in a bot that could and did kick GR's butt, but his programing wouldn't let him finish the job

You can google it and see a cover with him on it.
