* FaceHeelTurn: Spent quite a bit acting as Zadkiel's [[TheDragon Lieutenant and Chief Enforcer]] during the 'Heaven's on Fire' story arc. During which Danny hunted down the other Ghost Riders ether killing or [[DePower Depowering]] them till only He & Johnny were left.
* FlechetteStorm: The chain was initially unique to him and he still possess a greater control over it than the other riders, even to the point of breaking it into its individual links and launching them as a cutting barrage.He could also make it into a make shift [[BladeOnAStick [=spear=]]] as well as a dagger and sword.

* NinetiesAntiHero: Meant to be the "edgier" counterpart to Danny Ketch/Noble Kale, a walking skeleton wearing a spiky jacket on fire who caused the worst imaginable pain in people just be looking at them...yeah it was only a little plausible because 90s Ghost Rider ''was'' a little nicer than the Blaze version and thus apparently not hardcore enough for the 90s.

Since Marduk is the villain of a different comic, [[DependingOnTheWriter Lucifer will get all the credit if you're reading a Ghost Rider story.]]

** He was introduced in Daredevil, but Comicbook/{{Spiderman}} showed up to help Murdock out. He was only really a Daredevil villain for one StoryArc; he has crossed paths with pretty much every Marvel hero since then. In his second appearance he's already moved on from the Man Without Fear and chose instead to target {{Wolverine}}, ThePunisher and Danny Ketch Ghost Rider. He's only really a Ghost Rider villain by virtue of crossing paths with them a little bit more than everyone else.

* DeathGlare: Almost literally. The Penance Stare burns your very soul with varying intensity depending on your crimes. The ''King of Hell'' storyline also introduces the even more powerful Damnation Stare as part of Johnny's arsenal, used exclusively on demons. Unlike the Penance Stare, however, this version has the added side effect of [[PowerCorrupts corrupting his mind the more he uses it]], pushing him toward anger and [[HeWhoFightsMonsters becoming more evil]] as a result.

* BeenThereShapedHistory: His first series suggests he's part of a StableTimeLoop set up by Death to ensure Thanos becomes who he is. Then in his second series, ''"Cosmic Ghost Rider Destroys the Marvel Universe"'', it's shown that he's done ''a lot'' more time traveling and has become involved in multiple critical moments in superhero history. This has the unfortunate effect of making him incapable of doing what he really wants and averting the death of his family because then he'd be unraveling his now highly intertwined history in the Marvel Universe.

* WorfEffect: He jobs a lot of fights - including having a draw against a pre-Punisher Frank Castle (and actually took a pummelling from his past self), getting another draw but against the Punisher (this Frank Castle was ready for his future self - he had hellfire rounds in a submachine gun and a knife made of an adamantium-vibranium alloy) and if the events from his time travel adventures were even a little bit true - then he actually lost and was captured by moloids.
