If they actually fought, Spawn would rape the ever loving fuck out of Ghost Rider. He'd shit in Ghost Rider's mouth, and then make him shit in Spawn's mouth so that Spawn could shit a combination of Ghost Rider's shit and his own double shit into Ghost Rider's mouth. I know, I know, "BUT BUT BUT PENANCE STARE" but Spawn has taken down whole god damn armies of angels and shit that pretty much could do the exact same thing Ghost Rider does. Spawn has proven that soul burning judgment from beyond is no big fucking deal when you're Al GOD DAMN Simmons.

That being said, I actually prefer Ghost Rider and will vote for him as such. Spawn got too over the top after a while.

Gotta go with the Hellspawn,You can kill Spawn but he aint gonna stay dead.Plus that living suit can quite literally make him God."demon shotgun" my ass Al Simmons as a mortal man was cold enough to make hell itself sit up and notice him when Malbolga wants you as the head of hells army and heaven wants you dead you are doing something right.

By the age of two, children normally begin to display the fundamental behaviors of empathy by having an emotional response that corresponds with another person.[28]

The "gifts" from the Greenworld were:

- Empathy strong enough to tell exactly what every person on the planet is feeling and where they are located
- Control over nature (can create huge woods, can move tectonic plates, can make tsunamis)

As bad ass as Ghost Rider is, I am going to have to give it to Spawn. Spawn not only has all those brutal powers but prior to acquiring them, he had extensive military training.

As much as I think Spawn embodies everything I hate about 90s comics, there's really nothing Ghost Rider can do that Spawn can't do better.

This was tough in the sense that I like the idea of Spawn more, but at the end of the day, I like the Ghost Rider character more. I've never been a fan of McFarlane's writing, and a lot of his art satisfies that niche of dark and grotesque, but doesn't necessarily appeal to me.

Both movies sucked royal ass and I would like to kill all involved.

I was hoping not to vote for Marvel 3 times in a row. Ah well.

Spawn: Great idea. Ghost Rider: Better execution.

They are certainly two of the worst comic movies I've seen. The genre is also full of garbage, so that's saying something.
Ghost Rider is pretty much as bad as it gets. Spawn is a bit better than Ghost Rider, or other assorted crap like Fantastic Four, but that's not saying much at all.

Actually, in another thread when I was attempting to rank the top 10 superhero films, I noticed a sharp drop off in quality. I couldn't get much further than 7 or 8 places in without seeing a sudden decline from "damn good" to "not good enough to be on this list"
Very polarized genre when it comes to quality.

Mephisto's "bounty hunter" vs. Satan's "general".

If memory serves me correct, if Spawn uses all of his power, he's deader than a door nail, end of story. Ghost Rider works only at night, and vulnerable during the day.

Both told the boss to shove it.

Ghost Rider got a nice bike, but Spawn can get his own whlist using his cape as seen in the movie.

My allegiance is with Marvel, but I'll give Spawn the edge. Both movies sucked and you really can't base an argument on that.

Wait...I thought the Ghost Rider "only at night" thing was just for the movie.

I haven't read a recent GR comic, but I know Blaze used to turn into GR in the day in older comics.

I think the gimmick of having superhero gimmicks passed onto other characers is shit. It's been done to death in the past 10 or 15 years. I never liked it, and that's not going to change. It's the comic book equivalent of having lookalikes take on the Diesel and Razor personas.
Either that, or it's a cheap shakeup by having another established character don their costume and powers, as if it were a position in the workplace that had openings. In most cases, the hero persona and the real person behind it are intertwined, and defined by eachother. It's part of what makes the characters compelling.

Mitch, I think you really need to establish that this isn't about what character you like better, because some people aren't getting it.

Also, this is kind of a shitty match up, again. Spawn's power is near infinite. Yeah, decapitation can kill him, but that's a lot easier said than done, considering guy can pretty much do anything tio stop it. Spawn has gone up against countless threats, more deadly than shotguns. They never work.

Guy cut satan's head off, come on.

It's always sucked in the past, but to be fair the passing of the Captain America mantle was awesome. Ed Brubaker should write everything

I thought he already established that this wasn't about preference, or who would win in a fight, but rather whichever criteria one chooses. I think most have shown a mixture of both approaches when choosing their vote

See I fucking hate spawn. Ghost Rider is a much cooler character, at least in recent years, but that doesn't change who would win in a fight.

That seems very silly tbh.

What's the point of the poll when people are voting for two completely different things?

Should just pick one or the other and just go with it.

I have not read or seen any comics/movies related to Spawn at all.

I have little exposure to Ghost Rider as well. I read his latest series. Which got pretty good by the end.

So I vote Ghost Rider just because.
