MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1991*. Stopped in 1992 after 15 issues.

The title character is the young Dan/Danny Ketch, who is basically an anti superhero driving a motorcycle on dangerous missions in a leather outfit that also involves a scary mask.

* The concept character still features in several American series that started with The Ghost Rider from 1950 to 1954 (14 issues) which played out in the Wild West. Since then the series has received a contemporary touch featuring diverse main characters riding motorcycles. The series on this page is part of the second of the modern ones.
