Got the origin of the Cosmic Ghost Rider off slightly, Frank became a normal GR but then returned to earth to find no one and that drove him insane, then Galactus showed up and gave him the power cosmic to make him Cosmic GR. He then joined Thanos and killed Galactus

[@austinwise6961]

I thought they tried to kill Galactus and it was frank castle or are you talking about somthing else

[@shallow6603]

He actually became galactus herald and they went on a space adventure hunting down thanos and then they were beaten by thanos and thanos killed galactus and he had no choice but to join his side (funny enough thanos only let him live so he could look into his eyes for the penence stare he found it amusing and it became his favorite pastime not joking that happened lol)

[@greed5022]

you got it slightly off also. because frank was dead and not a living host he was a weaker version

[@blazingmalfunction]

even then you all are forgetting a major part of the Cosmic Ghost Riders story, where he travels back in time to when thanos was a baby to kill him in his infancy. He found that he could not do it, since as a child thanos hadnt committed any sins, and Ghost Rider can only kill sinners. he instead took baby thanos on a cross-galaxy road trip to try and make him a better person, instead of the mad titan hes known as. when he returned to the future he found that thanos had become the New Punisher, living up to what his "father" had done himself. He than had to go back in time again to stop himself from effectively kidnapping baby thanos to set time back to what was supposed to happen.

[@razgrizraven]

He eventually killed Thanos in a spectacular fashion.

[@scrondolio90]

My absolute favorite comic book character hands down. People sleep on him but he can go toe to toe with World Breaker Hulk

[@gcell10]

The fact that the hammer didn’t just drop like a stone upon being grabbed because Zarathos can understand and bypass the enchantment is pretty badass

The problem with that is that if he could outrun the hammer he could have hit Thor harder by going faster than the hammer on the way back.

[@WilliamWizer]

@@happyunhappy7240 the symbiote would fuse with the civilian identity of the ghost rider and, in doing so, gain fire inmunity. besides that, the ghost rider can control when/what his fire burns so it shouldn't be a problem.

[@happyunhappy7240]

@@WilliamWizer But why would the spirit/demon let it? I think if it saw the creature try and connect with its host it would instantly go on defence mode and burn it, the only way it would allow it too is if the Symbiote already fused with a different host and then had a conversation with the rider asking it and trying to convince it and even then it's highly unlikely it would agree being a demon and all, I mean it would be interesting to see sure but I just don't personally see it happening,unless the rider was neutralised before the Symbiote tried too connect (idk if the rider can be neutralised for a short time or not)

And the other side that has what remains of the (Angel of Justice) powers, that changes the color of the flames to blue on his head when (Johnny Blaze) taps into that power.

Doubt that would ever happen. The Nick Cage movies took a lot of liberties with the source material. Marvel/Disney would keep it a bit closer to the source material instead of using a noncanon version they had basically nothing to do with making.

@@laughingmask3118No worries, I was only talking about the comic book versions of Ghost Rider. However, the comic book from the 50's origin comes from the song Ghost Riders in the Sky from the 1930s, which is based on the old west legions of when a thunderstorm rolled in sounding like a stamped of horses, and that the ghost riders were rounding up the devil's herd. Plus, for extra points did you know that in a town in British Columbia have a mountain that they referred to as the Ghost Rider Mountain. The town is called Fernie, and they also named their hockey team the Ghost Riders.
