I made a deal with the Devil a long time ago. I lived to regret it. This had to end tonight... for my family!

Do you know what hellfire feels like, Fisk? Like all your sins come home to roost. All the wounds you've gouged in others brought back on yourself. And the "Kingpin of Crime" likes causing pain the same way he likes baby back ribs, yeah? Extra portions. So, tell me...what are you scared of?

Avengers? Fantastic Four? X-Dudes? They can all kiss my bony, flammable ass.

You did right by these people, Alejandra. All of them. Put the sin back into them, sure. But that don't make them bad. Just made them whole again. Everyone's got good and bad in them. Up to us how we use it.

You... who are you? And what the Hell do you think you're doing?

--Johnathon Blaze (Earth-616)

An exorcism? Heh. What, did you think you could just throw away the Spirit of Vengeance? That ain't how this works, kid. But don't worry, I'll take it off your hands. The Ghost Rider way. I'll race you for it.

--Johnathon Blaze (Earth-616)

Had no idea all those years back... when I smeared a pentagram on my chest and called forth the Devil. When I traded my soul to save the man who'd been like a father to me. When I damned myself to an eternity spent in servitude to that bastard Mephisto. Back then... I never once thought... that all this time later... I'd rise through the ranks from servant... to King of Hell.

--Johnathon Blaze (Earth-616)

Robbie, you idiot! What have you done?!

--Johnathon Blaze (Earth-616)

Why would I let you go? Freedom is for the reformed. If you were truly repentant -- truly changed -- you would not have damned human souls for your own gain. You would not have destroyed their lives. You would not have sent others to suffer the same fate you are trying to escape. All you have proven is that you are not rehabilitated. That you have learned nothing. That there is only one place for you... Hell. The Damnation Stare will decide your fate. If you truly deserve to be here -- to be forgiven -- it will have no effect on you. But if you aren't... then... back to where you belong.

--Johnathon Blaze (Earth-616)

I feel like Hell, but when you find Nightmare or that cannibal wizard, have Strange look me up... I owe them for the sleepless nights.
