So Spawn has recreated hell and heaven, gone toe to toe with Satan and God and somehow is going to lose this fight. To which I say good.
Don't get ahead of yourself, little one; there is still plenty of vote time left.
Ghost Rider and Spawn are virtually equals here. (Que the well Spawn has recreated argument) however Ghost Rider has never had the chance. So who's to say he can't.
Ghost Rider has had plenty of oppurtunities to kill off or otherwise do away with Mephisto, and still hasn't actually finished the job good and proper. And Mephisto, like Malebogia, has been revealed as a greater demon lord sitting on the throne of greater Hell in lieu of the real deal devil Satan himself. So there goes that theory.
Ostensibly, to the uneducated or to those unfamiliar, Spawn and Ghost Rider certainly seem like two sides of the same coin. Both are (until later revisions in Marvel canon) created in/by hell, both tend to chase after greater evils like demons and whatnot, and both use chains. However, really taking a look at the two, comparing their history and who they've become in their existence in comics, Ghost Rider is less Spawn and more Anti-Spawn/Redeemer.
Redeemer is an agent of Heaven created as a sort of anti-hellspawn (hence the first Redeemer we see carrying the name Anti-Spawn). Ghost Rider revised history is that he was empowered by Heaven, created as some sort of holy spirit of vengeance to hunt out the demons and other evils of the world. And that very same description aptly defines Redeemer. Redeemer and Ghost Rider both derive powers from a sort of supernatural fire (Hellfire for Ghost Rider and The Elemental Flame of Heaven for Redeemer); Ghost Rider can channel it in blasts, while various forms of Redeemer alternated from blasts of the fire outright to utilizing as part of a sword attack. While it's easy to mistake Ghost Rider as being a Marvel version of Spawn (of which there has actually been one but it was so horrible that it isn't worth looking up), you can see that he has far more in common with Redeemer.
That being said, Spawn has bested Redeemer easily almost every single time. The only version to give him grief (the first one, Anti-Spawn/Jason Wynn) came during Spawn's early days, which is also the time Ghost Rider might have stood a chance taking out Spawn. Fortunately for Spawn, in this tourney he comes in at full power Omega Spawn, and as such can easily dispatch either threat; the last battle Spawn had with a Redeemer he soundly cut off the holy warrior's wings with his own sword. You and FunKay both have tried this angle of attack, but as you can see it is fruitless.
Also, with that being said the key to winning this battle will be incapacitation because I truthfully can't see anyone killing either of the two. So I offer up a new method of incapacitation and that is Ghost Rider's chain. Who's to say that Ghost Rider can't chain Spawn up and then put a bullet in his head area which should at least incapacitate him for a little while, hence winning the fight. I think Spawn is outmatched here in the weapons department causing him to lose.
You clearly have either done some research on Spawn (as evidenced by your next post) or you were already vaguely familiar with him, so this comment leaves me a little puzzled. Surely you already knew that Ghost Rider isn't the only one here with magical chains that can do the user's bidding? If guns were capable of taking the guy down, Overtkill might have been a bigger threat than he was in the end. You're forgetting all about the chains, and the cape, and the other awesome things his Necroplasmic powers can manifest. And that's just sticking with his given powers from the get go, not even taking into account the boosted powers he gains later.
I've figured this out officially. Ghost Rider only needs to hop onto his bike head to the Dead Zone and wait it out until Spawn came there in which case Spawn would be mortal and fairly simple to beat. From what I've read there aren't many other ways of beating Spawn.
Ghost Rider, to the best of my knowledge, can't teleport himself and others, so even if he had knowledge of this ahead of time (which, going by similar arguments in other threads this year, he doesn't) he couldn't do anything about it. I will, however, pat you on the head for trying and at least being able to come up with a weakness for Spawn, which no one else has so far. It's nice to see someone say something other than "Ghost Rider can win because he can, duh.".
I don't think he needs that extra bit to beat spawn anyways.
I'm here at all hours ready to prove you wrong. I've put out plenty in favor of Spawn winning this fight and I've yet to see anyone come any close to having a valid reason as to why or how Ghost Rider wins this. Care to try your luck?
