grey fox
Ok , so I was watching the Ghost rider trailer a few day's ago (I can't get enough of the 'riding up the skyscraper' scene )
But a certain scene got me thinking , or to be more exact....

...this scene.
Now , we can clearly see Johnny Blaze on the flaming motorcycle . But who is this 'desperado' like figure racing behind him on a (clearly) undead horse ?
I think it's Ghost rider .
Now I can understand your reactions 'But Grey Fox , the only ghost rider rides on a motorcycle' (as their have been several different 'Riders' , but they all rode upon flaming choppers)
This is not the case.
Long before Roy Thomas had come up with the idea of 'Stunt-Master' (The basis from which Ghost rider would be created) his partner Gary Freidich had created a Western Themed gunman called ..yup you guessed it; Ghost Rider.
Now after the demonic version of Ghost rider (Motorcycle) was created , the 'Old' Ghost Rider's name was changed to Phantom Rider .
I think that cowboy on the horse is in fact the same Ghost rider , incorporated into the film as a sense of past to the demonic purveyor of vengeance.
If so it would have been a great way of revitalising a dead character. I'm kinda excited about it as well , if anyone has any comments of thought's I'd like to hear them .
Note : The trailer I watched is a remix with a meatloaf song , if anyone wants to see it click here .
