Johnny Blaze

Johnny Blaze on deviantART
The movies may have taken a few liberties, but originally stunt motorcyclist, Johnny Blaze, sold his soul to Mephisto (one of the demons of Satan), to save his step father, ‘Crash’ Simpson from cancer. This deal eventually goes completely off the rails with interference from both good and evil forces. And the tormented Ghost Rider is born!  He first appeared in Marvel Spotlight no.5, August 1972.
Ghost Rider was co-created by Marvel editor Roy Thomas, writer Gary Friedrich and artist Mike Ploog, who to this day can’t seem to agree who came up with the different aspects of the character. I have added Johnny Blaze to my deviantART Gallery.

Medusa

Medusa on deviantART

Medusa’s thick red hair is six feet in length and obeys her every thought!
Medusalith Amaquelin (aka Medusa) is reigning Queen of the Kree Empire and leader of The Inhumans, a race of extraterrestrials originally from the ‘blue area of the moon’ and more recently located (among other places) in the Himalayan Mountains and on the Attilan Islands (both on Earth!). 
Medusa, Black Bolt, 'Maximus the Mad', and the rest of the Inhumans were created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby for Marvel Comics in 1965. 
The Inhumans have always been both allies and enemies of The Fantastic Four and have become a mythology unto themselves within the Marvel Universe.
I have added Medusa to my deviantART Gallery.

Curtis Connors was a an American battlefield surgeon who returned to the States with an amputated arm. Working as a research technologist in Florida, he developed a reptilian DNA serum which regenerated his missing limb, but also transformed him into a giant mutant Lizard! Peter Parker, in his ‘day job’ as a New York photojournalist for the Daily Bugle, discovered Dr. Connors secret and attempted to help him...  with complicated and eventually disastrous results. I have posted this illustration on my deviantART Gallery
