Roberto Reyes was just a "normal" teen living in L.A. with his younger disabled brother, Gabriel. However, during the night he would often street race in his '69 Dodge Charger to earn some cash to support him and his brother who lived alone together. One night, those he beat got incredibly angry through the shame of defeat and would gun down Robbie and set his car on fire. However, Robbie would be suddenly possessed by the demonic spirit of his late and murderous uncle, Elias Morrow. Possessing Robbie, they became the most unique Ghost Rider to debut, having a very different design, vehicle, inner struggle, and an explosive fury belonging only to a murderer.



The Ghost Rider is a powerful entity that normally terrorizes the night's criminals. Robbie, however, is usually in control of his Ghost Rider form and intentionally hunts criminals without killing them. He's immensely powerful, even wielding his own special chain weapon, and even scaled up to Johnny Blaze's Ghost Rider while Robbie was a new Ghost Rider. His car is more involved with him in his Rider form than any other Ghost Rider, in that he can control it telepathically, it can phase through him, it's nigh indestructible, and the trunk contains a portal to hell.
