Catalogue note
Original first-print Frank Miller variant of the alpha chapter launching Marvel's four-part 2023 Ghost Rider/Wolverine: Weapons of Vengeance crossover. The issue reveals the previously unseen first meeting of Johnny Blaze and Logan and introduces the supernatural threat Bagra-Ghul / the Stitcher and Father Pike. The story continued through Ghost Rider #17, Wolverine #36 and Ghost Rider/Wolverine: Weapons of Vengeance Omega #1, tying the supernatural plot into the Fall of X period. This exact copy is UPC 75960620556100131; specialist direct-market catalogues identify the regular Miller edition as Cover C, while the Collect Forever header calls it #1D.
Why this object matters
The Miller variant and Percy/Shaw crossover launch preserve a specific late-career cover and contemporary Marvel narrative connection. Its retrospective first-meeting story is not the historical first publication of these characters together. Remove Gold and assess this regular variant at a meaningful 7.8.
Evidence limits: Complete under the standing TMR completeness rule; no missing issued component has been reported. Interior page-by-page verification is prevented by the sealed/protective enclosure.
