"Deadly Pawn!"
Midway through a cycle stunt jump, Ghost Rider and his Hellfire cycle disappear into a sorcerous vortex. But it is Johnny Blaze who awakes, chained before Doctor Strange, the Master of the Mystic Arts.
Strange coaxes the Demon within Blaze into coming forth, but not to his immediate advantage. Through the loft window of Strange's sanctum, a panoramic panoply of drooling Demons gathered around a pyre built for Roxanne Simpson.
The Demons are cajoled by an impassive Doctor Strange, curiously un-Strange-like behaviour. Engrossed in the fury of battle, Ghost Rider notices not that the warped landscape around him is not really New York, but the psychedelic realm of the Dread Dormammu.
The Arch-Demon has been manipulating events to goad Ghost Rider into losing complete control of his demonic side and mounting an attack on his nemesis, the real Doctor Strange.
