The Goddamned is going right on my Amazon Wishlist. And in exchange since you said you haven't read any Ghost Rider, and you gushed over the artwork of how badass he can look on fire, I am going to open your eyes, friend. Garth Ennis writes a crude story with some immature dialogue and jokes (if you've read any or watched any Preacher, you'd know what I'm talking about). Clayton Crain though, God damn. Feast your eyes on Ennis and Crain's 2005-2006 6-issue mini-series for some serious poster-worthy Ghost Rider.
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEADPOOL (2014) #1-4 by Cullen Bunn and Ramon Rosanas
> Deadpool awakes from a food coma to find...the zombie apocalypse has occurred! Now, can the Merc with a mouth avoid becoming the Merc in their mouths?! Thrill to the sight of a hideous, rotting-fleshed monster shambling about the landscape...and don't forget all the zombies that he's fighting! (Get it? That first one referred to Deadpool. Who says zombie horror comics can't have a little humor?) Cullen Bunn, writer of the fan-favorite Deadpool Killogy, brings us one of Deadpool's darkest tales ever...and we're not just saying that because it's in black and white (and red)! So ring the dinner bell and nail shut the door, as Deadpool takes on the undead!
CARNAGE (2015) #1-5 "The One That Got Away" by Gerry Conway and Mike Perkins
> The sickest symbiote of all is back, and the result is gonna be Carnage! Cletus Kasady has renewed his killing spree, and the FBI is following the trail of bodies. They think they're ready: They have the latest sonic tech, and a specialist team including military hero/astronaut John Jameson and a reformed Eddie Brock! And when they pursue Carnage into an abandoned coal mine, the trap is set — but is it for him, or for them? As the walls close in, things get hairy for Jameson, and Brock itches to unleash his own monstrous other half: Toxin! A symbiotic smackdown is on the cards — but who will come out on top? Meanwhile, the Darkhold Cult has its own plans for everybody's favorite psychopath — and that can't mean anything good! All-New! All-Different! All killer no filler!
Oh my good gravy. So everyone can witness this, here is the description from Amazon on "The Fix"
> THE FIX is a story of the crooked cops, scheming mobsters, and corrupt politicians that run Los Angeles—and the sex toy that can bring them all down. Oh, and the hero is a drug-sniffing beagle named Pretzels.
That's the most Superior Foes description of a book I could possibly imagine. It's like Spencer is building his own trope. Definitely going on the wishlist

Groot (2015) #1-6 by Jeff Loveness and Brian Kesinger
Just one of my favorite limited series I've ever read. Explains the character, his relationship with Rocket, explains life. Highest of recommendations.
> For the first time ever, the most famous talking-tree-thing in the Marvel Universe is starring in his own book! You might recognize him from Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, the biggest movie of 2014. When Rocket and Groot are on an intergalactic roadtrip and calamity strikes, the two get separated - and for the first time in years, Groot's on his own! Whatever may be coming Groot's way, one thing's for sure -- it's going to be a GROOT adventure!

> Spinning out of the pages of X-MEN #1, comes an incredible new book starring the world's first mutant, NAMOR THE SUB-MARINER. When the X-Men are confronted with a deadly vampire threat, Namor takes matters into his own hands on a mission that might bring down the entire might of the vampires on their heads...and destroy Atlantis in the process!

A fun revisit to this series. The first story arc was one of my favorite reads of the subreddit. This second visit wasn't so much one clear story arc so much as it was where the TPB cut it off.
Some of the higher stakes moments like Black Panther being shackled down in a burning building at gunpoint and still talking shit, and Hydroman's plot to crash the plane were really tremendous. The Monica/Nakia/Killmonger/T'Challa thing was really starting to cook, but was broken up in such small parts over so many spaced out issues I had trouble keeping track of it.
Wasn't a fan of Queen Divine Justice in the least. I know there are people it is an accurate representation of, but she was just OOT obnoxious, and nothing made me want to invest my time reading her story involvement. Compared to the first story arc we read of this series, I thought Achebe was a little neutered compared to what I thought he was being built to be. He's nutty and at times disturbing, but too cartoony at other times. And putting Everette K. Ross in peril if a formula for success no matter how often repeated, but whether Elephant, Claw Machine, or Hulk, it's too hard to top him sitting side by side with Mephisto as they wait for T'Challa to come home.
Marvel Graphic Novel 1: The Death of Captain Marvel (1982) #1 by Jim Starlin
> Witness the classic and tragic end of one of the greatest heroes of all time, Mar-Vell of the Kree, who became the Earth hero Captain Marvel! After dozens of battles on Earth and across space, and with the power of his Nega-bands and his all-knowing Cosmic Awareness, can Mar-Vell fare well in his battles with Nitro (the exploding villain who later sparked Marvel's super hero Civil War), the death-defying Stellarax, and the seemingly dead Thanos? Guest-starring Rick Jones, Drax the Destroyer, Starfox, and all your favorite Earth heroes!

GHOST RIDER (2006-2009) #1-6, "Vicious Cycle" by Daniel Way and Javier Saltares
> Once upon a time, Johnny Blaze made a deal with the Devil - and to no one's surprise but his own, he got shafted. Now trapped in hell, with the Spirit of Vengeance bonded to his immortal soul and weighing him down, Johnny may have finally found a way out. But at what cost? From the depths of Hell to the glittering spires of Heaven, the Ghost Rider rides again, blazing new trails and dispensing fiery vengeance in his wake.
> Flames of the Faltine! Is it getting hot in here, or is it just Mephisto? When Doctor Strange joins Reed and Sue Richards in battle with the Lord of Lies, the enchanting sorceress Topaz is freed from hell. But half her soul remains in torment. Can Strange complete her -- or will he fall prey first to a siren's song? Or perhaps to a feral feline demon? With a key part of his costume clawed to pieces, Stephen's going to need a new Cloak -- but when the unholy Urthona strikes, he might need a new body, too! The old saying goes: don't pay the ferryman until you get to the other side. But before Strange can reach it, there might even be a new Sorcerer Supreme!
> The X-Men do not kill. But when Apocalypse - the mutant despot who has countless times brought humanity to the brink of destruction - returns, Wolverine knows there's only one solution: the recently reconstituted X-Force! The new team - consisting of Deadpool, Archangel, Psylocke and Fantomex - must destroy En Sabah Nur. But can Wolverine's secret team survive Apocalypse's deadly Final Horsemen? And even if they do, can they kill the reborn Apocalypse when the greatest threat the world has ever faced is now no more than an innocent child?
