    After a war in heaven, between Angels, the Angel Micah who had sided with the rebel angel Lucifer was cast down, as had all who sided with Lucifer against God, seeking to oppose the almighty. Micah no longer an angel instead a demon, discarded his angelic name and crowned himself as Kazann. In spite of all his new existence as a demon, Kazaan maintained a friendly relationship with his brother, the angel Malachi. More than that in fact, both demon and angel conspired together seeking to advance both their respective positions in their orders. Both helping and aiding to increase each others over al power as well. Sharing information and secrets of demons and angels to each other respectively. With each other to play off to show impressive feats in front of other angels and demons both were in fact able to ascend to higher and more authoritative positions of power. When Kazann makes a play for manifesting himself on Earth, a host of angelic and demonic representatives make note and put into place the means to stop him. His brother Malachi not wishing to be implicated with his brother least their arrangements be made apparent to all. As such he sets the the Ghost Rider free to capture Kazann and bring him to Malachi.
