Deadpool Vs Ghost Rider
Deadpool Vs Ghost Rider

Suggested by Battra Boy
Here we have an excellent match of some site favorites. While just about any scenario wouldn’t appear to provide an advantage over the other (save for some settings), it’s a fairly eventful fight that could span fro quite a bit of time.

If I had to pick a winner, I’m going with Ghost Rider.

What say you?

    A truly hard match to decide. Both have all eternity to duke it out. Deadpool who death fell in love with is now banned from her realm, making him unable to die. Ghost Rider on the other hand is a power of god, and when he is hellbent, or should I say godbent, into catching a single target, the Spirit of Vengeance within him would imbue the host with all powers needed to quell that person. So it’s a guy trying to kill a guy who can’t die and the other guy trying to kill a guy who he can’t harm. Very, very hard to decide.

    *sits back and waits for the fansplosion from our friendly neighbourhood Ghostie fan*

    How does regeneration work if you’ve been burnt to ashes exactly?

    I would have through one good gust of wind, or for example the exhaust of a shockingly impressive bike, would scatter the ashes to the winds. And if Deadpool, as is mentioned elsewhere (deadpool versus Hulk i think), needs to pull himself back together to regen, then won’t that make it pretty hard?

    perhaps deadpool will use his power of the breaking the fourth wall, in order confuse ghost rider by discussing the awful film version of him by nicholas cage, and while ghost rinder is pondering what the hell is on about, deadpool kicks him between the legs and attempts to steal his bike.

    Best scenario yet.
    Otherwise, Ghost Rider, no problem.

    First of all, I congratulate Admin for finding such two great pictures. I must say, the Deadpool is one of my favorites.

    Second, I am still leaning towards the host for the Spirit of Vengance. How will Deadpool be able to regenerate if his entire body has been annihalted by super-nova type level Hellfire? I don’t know if the penance stare can work on the insane, but if it can possibly, well, Deadpool would be finished for sure. I can’t think of a way Deadpool can actually kill Ghost Rider, seeing as he doesn’t really use magic (or does he?). Right now, I go for Johnny Blaze….

    I imagine if deadpool was utterly vaporized, he would be unable to pass on to the other side due to his curse and so would become some form of ghost, which in turn he would drive ghost rider insane by constantly chatting to him, forcing ghost rider to take his own life just to escape him.

    The problem is, can ghost rider even kill himself without the Spirit of Vengeance taking control and staying his hand

    I think that Deadpool has a pretty good chance of winning against Ghost Rider

    Deadpool:
    1. regenerates
    2. has many weapons (swords, guns, grenades), and he’s pretty good with his weapons
    3. can teleport
    4. doesn’t show any mercy (he enjoys all the killing)
    5. great strength, reflexes, stamina and he is very agile
    6. a very good assassin
    7. he can also fight very good without weapons
    8. he can’t die because he was cursed by Thanos

    Ghost Rider:
    1. supernatural powers
    2. capable of projecting hellfire as a weapon
    3. Penance Stare
    4. has a mystical chain
    5. able to travel between the incorporeal realms
    6. hellfire breath
    7. the ability to produce chains from either his throat or chest
    8. notoriously hard to injure by any conventional means, as bullets and knives usually pass through him without causing pain
    9. possesses superhuman strength, can press around 5 tons
    10. motorcycle that can travel faster than conventional motorcycles and can perform such seemingly impossible feats such as riding up a vertical surface, across the surface of water and leaping across great distances that normal motorcycles could not match, along with flaming wheels that allows the bike to nearly fly across surfaces, the bike included a shield-like battering ram on the front

    The Fight:
    1. Deadpool could only fight hand to hand against Ghost Rider cause most weapons don’t do any damage to Ghost Rider
    2. Penance Stare wouldn’t work on Deadpool because this ability was seen to have little effect on some people who were mentally unstable
    3. Deadpool can’t die, so it’s gonna be pretty hard to kill him, lol

    Who Wins:
    well, I think that nobody wins this fight because Deadpool can’t die and Ghost Rider can’t be harmed by most weapons
    so…I’m going with “nobody wins”

    “The problem is, can ghost rider even kill himself without the Spirit of Vengeance taking control and staying his hand”

    in a case like this never underestimate deadpool’s ablitiy to be annoying, since even the greatest and most powerful of warriors can be driven to distraction by it, so who know how much worse it would be to followed around forever with him chattering away, hell the spirit of venegeance may not try to sway his hand but find a quicker way to end it all.

    so it could end with ghost deadpool just keeps talking on, whilst ghost rider rocks himself back and forth muttering to himself.

    This is a stalemate. Noone can kill the other unless it comes down to the scenario set above with GR commiting suicide (i like that scenario).

    Deadpool has no way to harm GR physically, never underestimate mental harm. GR could beat the crap outta Deadpool, but can’t kill him.

    This really comes down to whether Ghost Rider can permanetly destroy Deadpool. If either incinerating his body to nothing and leaving him a ghost or scourging his soul away with hellfire/penance stare would succeed, then GR would win. Otherwise, we have another endless battle, with Deadpool unable to die and his weapons not being able to harm Ghost Rider, who would just regenerate instantly if he was harmed anyway.

    okay this isnt the same as having no head but it shows deadpool shoots himself through the head just for kicks

    “Hawkeye pleads with Deadpool to let him go and that Osborn wanted to pay him off with money to stay low, Deadpool accepts and takes the money. (Which actually came from Bullseye’s savings) After Deadpool got paid he sits in his hideout for a month, doing nothing but watching TV and eating chips until he gets bored and shoots himself ”

    Would total annihilation of Deadpools body count as a victory for Ghost Rider? I am sure Deadpool can survive physical wounds, such as decapitation and grievous bodily blows. But what if there is nothing left? Ghost Rider’s hellfire has been shown to reach supernova type levels of heat. Not that Deadpool can not regenerate from fatal wounds, but how is he suppose to regenerate when there is not a single cell living, let alone not completely vaporized by the immense heat of the flames? Unless Deadpool’s spirit creates a new body for it to inhabit, I am leaning towards the Spirit of Vengeance.

    @Pondering Fool

    that might be possible, Deadpool’s regeneration power is his cancer
    so if all the cells in his body would be destroyed, he wouldn’t be able to regenerate anymore

    Deadpool’s healing factor is strong enough that he has previously survived decapitation more than once, though in each of these occurrences, his head had to be reattached to his body instead of his head growing a new body.

    but Deadpool is still cursed so he can never die, so when his whole body would be gone he would still be alive cause he can’t die but his regeneration wouldn’t regenerate a new body because when his body is gone, his regeneration power would be gone two
    so…he would be alive without a body?

    #45

    hmm, thats true
    but when his body would be gone he would still live cause he isn’t able to die
    so this fight would be a never ending fight because Deadpool is just immortal and Ghost Rider can’t be hurt by most weapons
    but maybe if Deadpool would fight hand to hand against Ghost Rider he could defeat him?
    or maybe if Deadpool could find some other weapon, he could kill Ghost Rider
    can Ghost Rider get hurt by his own chain?, cause if he can get hurt by his own weapon and Deadpool could steal it from him he could kill Ghost Rider

    Perfect timing. The next Deadpool team up has Deadpool with the Ghost Riders. We can probably see the answer there.

    But without that, I’m going to guess the Ghost Rider. His attacks goes for the one place you can’t truly defend, the soul. Also the fact that the Rider could be the only guy on the planet that can give Deadpool the one thing he really wants.

    It would be a rather grim fate for Deadpool, his entire body scourged out of existence by holy hellfire, his soul caught in the realms between life and death, and the mysterical attacks of Ghostrider attacking him even there. What would happen then? Deadpool is unable to pass on to Death’s realm, but his spirit has no body to inhabit and is being assaulted in a metaphysical way by a constant stream of hellfire by the Spirit of Vengeance.

    I can see one of two things happening. If souls can be destroyed/killed in the Marvel Universe, than Deadpool would probably be scorched out of all realms of existence, destroyed utterly in the universe he’s in, unable to remain on earth or go to Death’s realm. If they cannot be, even by a spirit of vengeance, then he would likely be reduced to a mad shade, forever condemned to walk the Earth without interacting with it as little more than an insane, broken ghost.

    Yes, that is a grim fate indeed. You don’t mess with Ol’ Flamehead, no sir, you don’t.

    Yes, I think it is. After all, GR would be able to do this sort of damage and possibly kill Deadpool permanently, or at least leave him a walking shade, while I have difficulty thinking of a way that Deadpool could even scratch the skull of GR. Unless he finds a weapon forged of heaven, he wouldn’t be able to cause any damage, and even if he could, GR could still regenerate almost instantly. At the very best for Deadpool, it would be an unending stalemate, but most likely a defeat for him.

    Sorry, all. Been rather busy.

    My opinion on the matter is rather conflicted. With all I know about the characters, I think Ghost Rider SHOULD win this, but I am not certain if he COULD. True we know that theoretically speaking, the Spirit of Vengeance would annihilate Wilson, but he has yet to demonstrate the level of power required to do so. This is due to two main factors.

    The first is that unlike other regenerating characters, Deadpool’s ability to recover from trauma is enhanced with the level of damage taken as well as his own mental/emotional state. Theoretically speaking, Ghost Rider could incinerate the mercenary down to the atom. The problem with this is that the trauma is so big that Wade could potentially heal it in picoseconds.

    The second is in the form of Deadpool’s insanity. Typically, when the Spirit of Vengeance comes across a being he cannot punish one way (physically, or mentally), he opts for the other. Ghostie will find that neither the Penance Stare, nor Hellfire attacks to the soul, would be doing much to the unorthodox assassin. They could be just as likely to be terminally devastating, as well as being an emotional tickle. Wade could simply go off into some sort of psychosis, shrugging off these attacks.

    Short of divine intervention in the form of possible omnipotence, powers that we have yet to witness from the Rider, he simply cannot permanently terminate Deadpool. We do know for a fact that Deadpool cannot hope to do any damage at all onto the Rider. Therefore, this is a good example of a possible draw.

    That said. We could speculate that the Penance Stare could disturb Wilson enough for his healing to be thrown off. If this is the case, big IF, then the Ghost Rider could potentially create an opening to incinerate every cell of the mutant’s power. Being a heavenly agent as well, the rider could potentially negate the immortality curse placed on Wade by T-Ray.

    This is all highly speculatory, though. Lets call it an informed opinion.

    My personal veredict is that the two will get tired of ripping into one another, resulting in a draw with the slight speculatory advantage given to Ghost Rider should the previously mentioned conditions be met.

    Like someone else said, we might have to wait for the upcoming team-up issue for more specific clues.

    The problem is that Marvel doesn’t see GR as anything more than a cult phenomenon. They consider him a B-list character at best.

    Gr only ever got popular back in the early 90s (the time I jumped on the title). Jason Aaron’s run was unexpectedly popular, so Marvel may change the character’s direction towards something more prominent, but I wouldn’t expect to see either of the GRs on the pages of the Avengers or any major crossover any time soon.

    Slight speculatory advantage . . . I like that way of saying it, and it’s a pretty good expression of the possible outcomes. Yes, I agree with that fully. Most likely a stalemate with a small window for GR to win.

    Well, I got the issue in hand now. Deadpool got immobilized by the Ghost Riders (yes, two of them) chains only once. Deadpool had to cover his eyes while one of them made a Solar Flare type move. He can ride on the Ghost Rider’s Motorcycle with no problem but then again that could be an ability I got wrong (only the innocent can touch the Bike). Deadpool got possessed by a demon and still had (major) control over his body. And he got stabbed in the heart by those Chains with the demon inside him, and lived.

    I think Deadpool can take him after all this.

    Deadpool might survive some of Ghost Rider’s attacks, but does he have anyway to eliminate the Spirit of Vengeance for good? If not, then it remains in a tie.
