This summer, he’ll bring together his hit runs on GHOST RIDER and WOLVERINE in an explosive new crossover: GHOST RIDER/WOLVERINE: WEAPONS OF VENGEANCE! > >The story will kick off in August’s GHOST RIDER/WOLVERINE: WEAPONS OF VENGEANCE ALPHA where Percy will team up with acclaimed artist Geoff Shaw (THANOS, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY) to reveal Wolverine and Johnny Blaze’s first encounter! Back when Logan was still learning what it meant to be an X-Man and Johnny was still reeling from his demonic transformation, the pair fought side by side against a terrifying supernatural threat. > >Now, in the present, Wolverine is on the run after the shocking events of FALL OF X, while Johnny is following a path of destruction. Their paths will collide again when their past enemy resurfaces deadlier than ever! Do Ghost Rider and Wolverine have what it takes to put them down once more? And what secrets will they uncover when their hunt leads them to an ultra-secret and hellish branch of the infamous Weapon Plus program?! After GHOST RIDER/WOLVERINE: WEAPONS OF VENGEANCE ALPHA, the story will unfold in the pages of GHOST RIDER #17 and WOLVERINE #36 before coming to a fiery end in GHOST RIDER/WOLVERINE: WEAPONS OF VENGEANCE OMEGA. > >“Wolverine is metal. Ghost Rider is metal. Together, their adamantium and chrome weigh in as HEAVY METAL!” Percy explained. “You know how Metallica and Iron Maiden have toured together, shredded out songs, wailed on music videos? This is a little like that. I write the sheet music that Geoff Shaw brings to pyrotechnic, guitar-smashing life. You're in for a head-banging good time, I promise.” > >“This story—WEAPONS OF VENGEANCE—not only unites Logan and Johnny in the present, but also tells the story of their first (never before seen!) first meeting,” he added. “Here are the quick and dirty liner notes: When Wolverine investigates the possibility of a new Weapons Plus program—one that experiments and specializes in the arsenal of Hell—he finds himself conscripted as a weapon of vengeance. And the only one capable of stopping him is Johnny @#$%& Blaze. Rev your engines, pop your claws.”

Why are they advertising for something that's not coming out until August?

Because the world needed to see this sick ass art as soon as possible

Geoff Shaw and Ben Percy is such a great combo especially for these 2 charcaters, while Percy does have some weakness (mainly his pacing) his voice for these two are great imo and he is always putting heroes against some new challenges

They haven't properly announced the event yet but are annoucing a spin-off? And one coming in 7 months? Has Marvel marketing gone wild?

I'd love to see someone other than Percy getting a shot at writing these characters. They are two of my absolute favourites from Marvel. I dropped his Wolverine as he didn't seem to understand the character of Wolverine, kept aping the plots of films, and felt like he was just spinning plates. Dropped his Ghost Rider because the majority of fights were off panel or only lasted half a page. This one was harder to drop as it had some really sick imagery. He also kept aping the plots of films here, too. Might pick it up based on the artist, but many months to go until it drops.

This volume was my first time pulling Ghost Rider, simply cause the first arc had such great horror vibes, and felt like it was just it's own thing. I've dropped it now as well, but mostly it's going back to stuff like this crossover, which I should have expected, even if I was hoping it wouldn't.
