Synopsis for "Vicious Cycle (Part II of IV)"
Johnny Blaze has returned from Hell, not realizing that he has also paved the way for Lucifer's entrance to the Earth-realm. Alone, Johnny wanders the desert highways until a woman named Dixie picks him up, and drives him into town. She gives him sixty dollars and advises him to clean up and get some food.
Lucifer meanwhile, possesses the body of a corpse en route to a funeral and hijacks the funeral home's van. In the back of the van is the surviving family of the decedent. He drives to the same town where Johnny is cleaning himself up.
Upon encountering Lucifer, Johnny Blaze transforms into the Ghost Rider and fights him. Blaze is no match for the Devil's power however, and the demon destroys the van, killing the family inside. He then disappears from the scene leaving the Ghost Rider alone.
Moments later, Doctor Strange appears in the sky above Ghost Rider's head and demands to know who he is.
