They could scarcely be supposed to have any bearing on the death of Jacob‚ his old partner‚ for that was Past‚ and this Ghost’s province was the Future. Nor could he think of any one immediately connected with himself‚ to whom he could apply them. But nothing

The Ghost Rider movie is no exception to this ongoing trend. Some of the main characters are different from the comic to the movie but not necessarily in a bad way. Johnny Blaze in the movie ate jelly beans out of a martini glass‚ liked to listen to the carpenters‚ and was quirky. Johnny Blaze in the comic book guzzled whiskey‚ listened to hard rock‚ and was very depressed. Then there was Mephistopheles in the movie he was eluded to being the devil‚ but in the comic he was known as Mephisto and was

Look‚ I dig Ghost Rider. As I said when reviewing the first Ghost Rider movie (one that I still believe holds up as a passable guilty-pleasure) the comic-book antihero’s appeal lies in his darkness‚ his badassery and his extreme heavy-metallitude. That‚ and the motorcycle. Having said that‚ I don’t think most issues of Ghost Rider I pored over as a child were ever actually well written.
