  Thank you Marvel, not only for releasing this great series on an easy to store and read meduim, but also for not including onorous, paraniod DRM on the disk. These are basic PDF files. I was able to copy the DVD to my hard drive and put the DVD away in a safe place. I can view these comics on any computer at home, and even on my Palm (although it is pretty hard to read there). If only the RIAA would take its cue from Marvel! This is a stunning product! Even the ads and staple holes are there! Just like the real thing, without having to keep it in plastic!
  
  

• Files on disc are corrupt and will not open

  I have had two of these discs so far and neither one would allow me to open issue #45. According to GIT Corporation tech support there is a corrupt file on the Master disc. Here is the response they sent to my email inquiry. "The problem does not lye with the discs, but with a corrupt file on the Master. The Ghost Rider collection is now in the process of being re-mastered. When they become available, we will post exchange info on the site. No definite date yet, as it an extremely time consuming process."
  
  GIT's "knowledge base" does not even list this known problem and it appears they have not recalled the defective discs and are still allowing them to be sold.
  
  I would be very wary of buying this product until the problem is corrected.
  
  
  

• Wow! A great way for fans of the Ghost Rider character to catch up!

  As a child, my favorite comic book characters were always the darker, scarier types. The horror comics, supernatural heroes, and the anti-heroes were always huge favorites of mine. So it was only natural that the Ghost Rider was in my top five subscriptions.
  
  But, as with all things from our youth, I "out grew" my comic collection and sold everything I had.
  
  Jump forward a couple years and suddenly Ghost Rider is back in the spotlight. A major motion picture is being made. Action figures are being sculpted and produced, the comics are coming back and I'm suddenly a geek again. :)
  
  So imagine my joy when I find that EVERY SINGLE Ghost Rider Comic book that I once had (and the ones I didn't have) are all collected on a single DVD! So I had to have it.
  
  The Entire disk is pretty much Adobe Acrobat files. Scans of each and every Ghost Rider Comic book EVER. Including the covers, the ads, the geeky "letter to the editor" sections, everything.
  
  Because of this, the scans aren't much more than high-resolution photos of the printed materials. I would have preferred scans of the original prints so that the old comic book "dot" printing was gone, but we can't always get what we want.
  
  Aside from the image quality mentioned above this disk is a walk through my twisted, sick, and geeky childhood that brings all those fond memories which takes an honored spot in my new collection of all things Ghost Rider. Right next to my Giant 12 inch tall Ultimate Ghost Rider Action figure with it's Giant "Movie-style" Hell Cycle... Hey, I'm a geek...

• The INCOMPLETE Story of Ghost Rider

  
  By A1UTIT634AL3KQ on 2008-02-20
  I wish so badly that I could give this product 5 stars but it can't be done. My disk has errors with at least 3 of the issues. This isn't a disaster but I paid for the complete collection; not the almost complete collection. Unfortunately, it looks like Marvel has stripped the rights to reproduce their books from GIT Corp, (Graphic Imaging Technology Incorporated), so it appears those who buy this disk are stuck. I'm left wondering, besides Marvel wanting to keep a tight fist around their property, that the incompetence of GIT has left them disenchanted? Certainly, it's a buyer beware situation with the product. Even if GIT wanted to remedy the situation they can't because they don't have permission to do anything about the corrupt files. See their forum and their non-response regarding a solution: www.gitcorp.com/forum. I guess all our hands are tide behind our backs?!?!?!
  
  Is this a good buy beyond that? I begrudging say yes because it's truly fun to see the old issues and have it in a format, (although defective), that doesn't take up any real space. Buy your copy, but it will most likely be incomplete. BUMMER!!!
