Review/plot:
Ghost Rider goes to Johnny Blaze for help against Centurious. He finds Blaze's carnival friends under attack by Lilin and Steel Wind.

At first the Lilin are excited to see Ghost Rider, saying that now "two parts of the medallion can be ours". But literally a panel later, they start to flee.

We've been hearing mention of the medallion lately, and whenever we do we're shown Ghost Rider's bike's gas cap.

For now, Blaze is uninterested in helping Ghost Rider until he learns that Centurious is involved. They head out after Centurious, but are attacked by another Lilin, Skinner, when they stop at a diner. Blaze gets sliced up.

Ghost Rider kicks the crap out of Skinner, and then Centurious and Lilith show up.

Centurious says that he'll trade both Blaze and Danny's mom Doris for the medallion on Ghost Rider's bike. Ghost Rider refuses, and surprises Centurious by demonstrating that he's able to hurt him. But Centurious is still able to mystically stop Ghost Rider, and he leaves with Blade and Skinner.

Meanwhile, Seer goes to the Night Club where we first met her. She's contacted by another member of "The Blood" which is her group of people (and also includes the Caretaker). She's instructed to bring bring Ghost Rider to them. Right after Centurious leaves, the blue ghost of Caretaker shows up telling Luke to seek Yoda at the Dagobah system, and then Seer arrives.
