Marvel has released a 6 page preview of the the first issue of Garth Ennis' "Ghost Rider" mini.  If Garth Ennis writing a Ghost Rider comic wasn't enough to get me excited (which it was), Clayton Crain's art looks like it would make this book worth buying even if Howard Mackie was writing it.

I'm also kind of fond of Exiles, which can be a fun little comic and also has a preview up from part of the World Tour storyline, in which the Exiles visit HoM, New Universe, 2099, Future Imperfect, Heroes Reborn, and the Squadron Supreme's Universe.

Sounds cool. Ghost Rider (at least what I've read) has been crap for a while. Just like the Punisher. Maybe Ennis will be the final word on that too?

Ok um...this is one of my comic pet peeves. Full page artwork is cool, but that's 6 pages with basically nothing at all happening. Intro text and a couple words of conversation.

I don't think we should go back to the days where every page was like a 3x4 block of even sized panels, but there has got to be some happy medium. A character saying 5 words shouldn't be the entire contents of a page!

To be fair though there was a good amount of text on most of these pages.  Ghost Rider himself just isn't a particularly chatty character.  The last couple of pages were a bit excessive though.
