(Cues: Wiz & Boomstick - Brandon Yates)

Wiz: Whether it be justice, vengeance or the thrill of the kill.

Bounty hunting isn't for the faint of heart.

Boomstick: Especially when your usual targets are superheroes.

Wiz: The Ghost Rider, Marvel's relentless Spirit of Vengeance.

Boomstick: And Lobo, the space hoggin' Main Man of DC Comics.

He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.

Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who will win...

A DEATH BATTLE!

Even at a young age, Johnny Blaze lived life to the edge.

Son to an accomplished cyclist Barton Blaze, he was sadly witnessed to his father's death in a stunt gone wrong.

Boomstick: But he got adopted by another stuntman, Crash Bandicoo-

Uh sorry, I mean Crash Simpson.

It's no surprise that Johnny became a stunt performer himself until Crash's wife died in a stunt gone wrong.

Wiz: Only now, apparently, aware that motorcycles can be dangerous, Johnny swore to never perform again.

Boomstick: And then Crash got cancer.

Damn.

Even I don't have parent issues this bad.

Wiz: Completely devastated, Johnny refused to let Crash die.

Willing to risk it all, he turned to the one person who could fix everything.

Boomstick: Everyone's favorite problem-solver, Satan!

Squirrely: Hail Satan.

Wiz: This was Mephistopheles, one of the many lords of Hell who happen to have a special interest in Johnny's family line.

To save Crash's life, he caught a deal with the devil, curing the cancer at the cost of selling his soul.

The deal succeeded and Crash was healed.

But, then he died in, well, a stunt gone wrong.

Boomstick: I mean, he's a stuntman who's name is Crash.

Should've seen it comin'.

And after all that, Johnny got stuck with being Mephisto's bitch for eternity.

Wiz: Mephisto even sandwiched him together with a demonic spirit of vengeance named Zarathos.

Boomstick: Zarathos.

Ask your doctor if it's right for you or your exorcist.

Wiz: Long ago, Zarathos was a powerful demon who threatened Mephisto's realm.

Eventually, Mephisto defeated him, forcing him to eternal servitude.

Boomstick: And with their power combined, Johnny and Zarathos roamed the world punishin' the wicked as the embodiment of a death metal album cover, the Ghost Rider.

Johnny: (laughs maniacally)

Boomstick: Aaagh!

Oh god, that's terrifyin'.

Wiz: Well, sure his visage instills fear onto many-

Boomstick: What, no.

Ghost Rider looks awesome!

I'm talkin' about Nick Cage.

Johnny: (maniacal laugh)

Wiz: Agreed.

Anyway, as the Ghost Rider, he became one of the universe's greatest threats.

He has superhuman strength and speed and his skeletal body can regenerate from practically any amount of damage.

Boomstick: And if blaze's his last name wasn't obvious enough he can shoot fire.

Oh, but not just any fire: Hellfire.

The best kind of fire.

Wiz: The kind that's infused with magic that burns not just your flesh but by passes conventional defenses to attack your very soul.

He can throw fireballs, raise walls of flame, rain fire from the sky and even conjure weapons and objects out of thin air such as a demonic shotgun and an infinite stream of chains.

Boomstick: And his badass ride: The Hell Cycle.

This baby can look however Johnny wants but it usually summons it as a panhead chopper.

It can respond to Johnny's thoughts, scale walls and even outrace Thor's hammer Mjolnir.

Wiz: The same hammer that crossed the galaxy and back in a single minute.

Boomstick: Y'know I lit my chopper on fire once.

Wiz: I didn't know you had a motorcycle.

Boomstick: Well, well, yeah and until the fire.

Wiz: Oh.

Oh.

Boomstick: Rest in peace Roadhog.

At least you went out in a blaze of glory.

Like Bon Jovi said.

Wiz: But while his hellfire and chains are vicious weapons in their own right.

They're often used to ensnare the Ghost Rider's victims as he goes in for a truly diabolical kill.

Or should I say...

A penance.

Boomstick: The Penance Stare it's basically hell's timeout corner of pain.

Ghost Rider isn't angry.

He's just dissapointed.

And he wants you to think about what you've done and it to hurt a lot.

Wiz: Under the Penance Stare the Ghost Rider forces you to relive all the pain and misery you've inflicted on others.

Throughout your entire life.

No indiscretion.

No matter how minor is safe from the Ghost Rider's gaze.

Boomstick So that time I put ground laxatives in my fourth grade math teacher's coffee and gave her the shits.

Does that mean the stare would give my soul the shits too?

Wiz: Not literally, but you would experience the anger, humiliation and the butt cramps.

Boomstick: So...

Basically eternal damnation got it.

Wiz: But should your sins be so numerous and terrible the Penance Stare could even obliterate your soul.

Leaving you an empty husk.

Boomstick: The stare doesn't work on everybody thought.

You might survive if you're blind, don't have a soul, draw power from pain or if you're a weirdo like Thanos who gets off on that shit.

Still Ghost Rider's grab bag of hell powers let him tare up some of the biggest assholes in the world and even some of the good guys like Hulk Thor and Doctor Strange.

Wiz: He's quick enough to dodge bullets or even outright catch them in his teeth.

He's powerful enough to create massive eruptions, blow up mountains and even tear down a skyscraper; the average skyscraper weighs over 200,000 tons.

That's the same weigh as a eleven hundred blue whales.

Boomstick: Or one ex-wife.

Imma write that on your next alimony check.

Wiz: And given his hellish heritage he's rather difficult to kill.

Bullets, poison, fire he's survived it all.

Even a beat-down from World War Hulk just got him even more pissed and extra flamin'.

Wiz: Not just that remember Zarathos?

Johnny Blaze isn't simply a host for the demon but a limiter for his full power.

Throughout his life as the Rider; Johnny has constantly battled Zarathos in the mind barely holding on to some semblance of sanity.

Should his will to resist the demon falter Zarathos can take full control and all hell breaks loose.

Not literally, but pretty close.

Boomstick: Oh and plot twist Zarathos was never actually a demon at all.

But an angel of justice fire skull head and everythin'.

When he's unleashed he becomes so powerful even Doctor Strange wets his robes and this is the guy who pops supernovas like Pez.

Wiz: While Zarathos was bonded to another host they even managed to defeat Mephisto in his own realm.

For reference Mephisto once battled Galactus Devourer of Worlds.

Stars detonated, galaxies trembled and the entire universe was at risk simply as a byproduct of their battle.

Boomstick: And if Zarathos wasn't terrifyin' enough he likes to eat souls.

Wiz: Of course the Ghost Rider isn't invincible.

Johnny is technically vulnerable as an ordinary human being.

Even while transformed the Rider can be killed via holy weaponry.

Boomstick: But Johnny's doing all right sittin' pretty on Mephisto's throne.

I guess things worked out okay for him even if he's not too keen on being the devil's bounty hunter

Wiz: So let this be a warning: Should you ever hear the rumble of a motorcycle in the distance and the glow of an ethereal flame on the horizon.

Count your sins because the Ghost Rider is coming and may God have mercy on your soul.

Ghost Rider: Sorry.

All out of mercy.

Wiz: Let's turn the clocks back to a distant era of sin and debauchery.

Boomstick: The 1990s.

Wiz: Inspired by the financial success of "Watchmen" and "The Dark Knight Returns", comic writers started churning out grim and gritty superheroes by the dozen, like Cable, Azrael and Overkill.

Boomstick: Yeah, they were badass-lookin'...

At first.

But I mean what's even happenin' here?

Wiz: It got so absurd that someone needed to knock these roided-out monstrosities down a peg.

Boomstick: The world needed a hero...

No, a parody.

Wiz: Enter the planet Czarnia.

Once the brightest beacon of peace and happiness in the universe until its inhabitants were annihilated by a biological catastrophe, leaving only one survivor.

The last son of Czarnia: Lobo.

Boomstick: The one that killed all the rest of them, a guy whose name literally translates in Czarnian to.

What?

Awesome!

Why wasn't I named that?

Wiz: Lobo is so unimaginably evil, that his birth caused the midwife who delivered him, to go insane.

The first Czarnian to do so in ten thousand years.

Boomstick: Some even think that Czarnia was so perfect and good, the universe made Lobo to balance things out.

Hey, didn't you say the same thing about me when we first met, Wiz?

Wiz: That I did.

Simply put, Lobo was...unique and desired to be more so.

Thus he was insured he was the only Czarnian alive in the universe.

Lobo: I fragged the rest of the planet for my high school science project.

Gave myself an A.

Boomstick: Yeah he's definitely insane..

..ly awesome!

Wiz: Lobo left the desecrated corpse of his former home to become a bounty hunter.

Probably because it's the only profession that legally allows him to murder.

Boomstick: Ah, don't worry, he'll murder you illegally too.

Lobo doesn't discriminate.

He even has a special gender-neutral insult and the name of my next motorcycle.

Lobo: My bike!!

Fraggin Bastich!

Boomstick: Anyway Lobo's bagged some pretty crazy bounties across the universe.

Includin' Santa Claus, two near-omnipotent dwarf gods and even things that don't exist, apparently.

Wiz: And Lobo's Czarnian physiology is just as absurd to match.

He possesses god-like strength, speed, and invulnerability.

So much so, he can tear through hordes of superheroes like nothing.

Should he somehow suffer damage, he also has an impressive healing factor.

Boomstick: He's like if Superman and Deadpool had a baby, which is a lot more terrifyin' when I say it out loud.

Deadpool: Did somebody say Deadpool?

Boomstick: (screams) Wiz: NO! GO AWAY!

There.

He's gone.

Boomstick: Wow.

I didn't think you had it in ya.

Deadpool: Aw honey that's not true.

Haven't you heard?

No one's ever really gone.

See you later!

Wiz: I swear to God I'll kill him someday.

Boomstick: So uh...

You have the replacement plan on that TV right?

Wiz: (clears his throat)

Back on topic Lobo can regenerate from a single drop of blood.

And each one he sheds will actually grow into a completely new Lobo.

No I'm not making that up.

Boomstick: No wonder there wasn't any war in Czarnia.

Nobody can kill these friggin bastiches.

Wiz: It helps that he's also a super genius who knows well over 17,000 languages.

He can perform complex physics equations in his head quickly enough to catch the Flash and can build planet destroying weaponry out of garbage.

Boomstick: His brain is no joke.

He can resist mind-control because he's too ornery and he's got so much willpower he can literally walk through Green Lantern constructs.

Y'know those things powered by willpower?

Wiz: And befitting his occupation Lobo is a master sharpshooter, tracker and kent by his own admission, deduce the weak points in any opponents.

Boomstick: Uh like how my shotgun leg jams if booze gets in it.

Wiz: I would have gone with your crippling alcoholism but sure that too.

Lobo may be a powerhouse on his own but he also comes equipped with guns, knives, swords, grenades and a bomb that he sent back in time which acidentally killed the dinosaurs.

Whoops.

Boomstick: His favorite is his enormous Hookchain.

But when his job takes him across the universe he hops on his Space Hog.

A customized fast frag 66 which has automatic machine guns, response to his whistle can fly fast enough to escape black holes and blasts.

?Born to be wiiild!?

Wait wait wait?

How can he sing in the vacuum of space?

Wiz: Oh that's where you drawing the line?

Not the time he say...

Pull the alien entity Solaris out of the sky which is as heavy as a star despite lacking leverage?

Boomstick: I like how he even admits that didn't make any sense.

Wiz: Using a small to medium sized star like our own sun as a reference; Solaris should weigh nearly 2 octillion tons.

Over 300,000 times heavier than Earth.

Boomstick: So pretty tough to benchpress.

But how about the time he was fightin' some rabbits and then he got so faced meltingly angry that he just straight-up ate a city!?
