Review/plot:
Ghost Rider and his group of Midnight Sons run around in the Cypress Hill Cemetery and eventually find Lilith, Zarathos, and the Lilin.

The Sons fight them a bit but are overwhelmed by Zarathos, so Caretaker shows up and leads the heroes on a retreat through the tombs under the cemetery. Dr. Strange arrives to help out, and tells the group to take sanctuary in his home.

Vengeance also joins in the fight against the Lilin.

Caretaker takes the Spirits of Vengeance (Ghost Rider, Blaze, and Vengeance) off somewhere to be trained, since Zarathos is following them for the Medallion. The rest of the characters go to Dr. Strange's house. Ghost Rider rescues Stacy Dolan (a police officer and Danny Ketch's sort-of girlfriend) before he leaves, and Dr. Strange hides her with a spell. The issue just sort of ends after that, with Zarathos just sort of left hanging.
