We're looking at the rosters of both DC Comics and Marvel Comics, now two decades removed from the original event, and reimagining what that fight card might look like if the event took place today. And, just like in the original DC Vs. Marvel event, you, the fans, will vote to decide the winners!

In this matchup, we have Constantine of the DC Universe taking on Ghost Rider of the Marvel Universe! We've laid out arguments for both sides in the video above, now it's up to you to vote!

In the DC Comics corner: John Constantine is the DC Universe's cunning occult detective and hedge mage. It's a combination of Constantine's arcane abilities and his silver tongue that have allowed him to face down some of the deadliest beings to inhabit heaven, hell, and all parts in between.

Constantine immersed himself in the occult as a means to escape his hard youth. It turns out he had a natural talent for magic. Power comes at a cost, though. After finding that out the hard way, he vowed to put himself between the demonic and occult forces that may try to take advantage of the mortals they bargain with, regardless of the sacrifice that may entail.

Constantine is a character that's willing to do anything, no matter how seemingly underhanded, and to sacrifice anything or anyone to win a fight. His resourcefully and his roguish demeanor will earn him as many votes as his proficiency with spellcasting.

In the Marvel corner: Robbie Reyes was just a high school student caring for his developmentally disabled brother in East Los Angeles. He wanted a way out of the inner city, but he got something else entirely.

Gang violence took Robbie's life, but the spirit of his satanic serial killer uncle, Eli Morrow, brought him back to life as the Ghost Rider. Now he uses his spiritually supercharged Hell Charge to dole out vengeance upon the wicked.

Robbie struggles to keep his soul intact, and it's that struggle that keeps him strong. Robbie hasn't been Ghost Rider for very long, but he's made quite an impression on fans who are sure to show up and cast their vote.

So, dear reader, will it be Batman or Captain America? Make your choice and vote! And be sure to vote in our previous faceoffs, Captain Marvel vs. Superman, Nightwing vs. Daredevil, Batman vs. Captain America and check back for more of ComicBook.com's updated DC Vs. Marvel matchups!
