But a Ghost Rider (presumably Johnny Blaze, though Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. does not confirm the character's identity) revives Robbie and passes the spirit of vengeance into him. As Robbie told it, something asked him if he wanted vengeance for what had been done to him and his brother, and he said yes. Robbie explained to Gabe, while being thrown from the car as it flipped over, he prayed to whatever god or being in the universe that his brother lived through attack. Robbie stole his uncle Eli Morrow's (Jose Zuniga) car and the brothers were attacked by members of the Fifth Street Locos gang - as established in the episode 'Lockup'. However, in 'The Good Samaritan', it's explained that Robbie convinced Gabe to go with him as he urged his younger brother to have some fun. On Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Gabe is paralyzed in the shooting that killed Robbie and led to his becoming Ghost Rider.Īs for the incident, it begins much the same way as the comic, with Robbie heading to a street race that promises a worthy payday. So, the show's take is an older version of Robbie, one who may not need to balance work with school, but does still need to take care of his younger brother. Eventually, Eli and Robbie reach an agreement that Robbie will kill as Ghost Rider, but only the worst of the worst - torturers, murderers, and rapists.Īlthough it's unclear how old Luna's Robbie is on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., he is presumably beyond high school age since Gabe (Lorenzo James Henrie) makes reference to him dropping out in order to work, and failing to return to finish his education. With Eli possessing Robbie, he's able to resume killing, but the teenager wrestles for control of his own mind and body from the spirit. It's later revealed that Eli Morrow was a hitman for the Russian mob and a serial killer during his time on Earth, only managing to escape eternal damnation through Satanic rituals. ![]() But when a local gang member - who owned the Dodge Charger and had stolen Zabo's pills - and his friends attack Robbie, the Ghost Rider emerges again to take them out. The Ghost Rider gets revenge on those who killed Robbie, and the teenager awakes the next daying thinking it was all a nightmare. However, the Dodge Charger is revealed to be haunted by the spirit of Eli Morrow, who brings Robbie back to life by merging with the teen's psyche and allowing him to transform into the fiery spirit of vengeance known as Ghost Rider. The mercenaries retrieve pills from the trunk of Robbie's "borrowed" 1969 Dodge Charger, bringing the cargo back to Zabo. After being chased by mercenaries hired by Zabo, Robbie gives himself up, though he is shot and killed anyway. The shocking origin story of Robbie’s transition into Ghost Rider is revealed as the lives of Coulson and the team hang in the balance.When Robbie enters a street race in an effort to win a huge amount of prize money so he can move himself and his brother to a safer neighborhood of Los Angeles, he gets mixed up in the business of Dr. Zabo aka Mr. Whether we’ll see the original Johnny Blaze origin story of him or the newer Robbie Reyes one is a mystery, but we won’t have to wait too long to have it solved as it’s only a couple weeks away now. With Robbie Reyes, the Ghost Rider in Agents of SHIELD, he actually dies and is then inhabited by a Spirit of Vengeance, the ghost of a deceased Satanic serial killer named Eli Morrow - who ends up also being his uncle. In the comics, the original Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze, was part of a family cursed ages ago, who would take on the mantle of Ghost Rider. ABC just released their episode summary for the sixth episode of the season, entitled “The Good Samaritan” and it promises to get into that story. The effects for the Ghost Rider were great and the story, so far, is intriguing, but we’ve yet to have had this Ghost Riders’s particular origin - until now. ![]() The season premiere kicked things off by showing us the character, Robbie Reyes, played by actor Gabriel Luna, going toe-to-flaming toe with the now rogue SHIELD agent Daisy Johnson, a.k.a. The fourth season of ABC’s hit Marvel series, Agents of SHIELD, decided to start their season off with a big swing for the mystical fences by including Ghost Rider in their line up.
