Hoskisson’s art perfectly blends the distinctive features of both characters! Griff's signature style is brought in with the most iconic parts of Ghost Rider's design.

His already intimidating look is even fiercer now with those blazing flames.
His cyberpunk style has a special mix, with green clothing, a helmet that looks slick, and other cybernetic modifications to give it the awesome Ghost Rider style and feel!

It's also got a distinct 90s vibe throughout the entire piece of art, which totally fits the original aesthetics of both Ghost Rider and Back to the Future, giving it some nostalgia points.

Why It Works

While Griff Tannen and Ghost Rider appear to be vastly different at first glance, when you look at the detail it works out well!

They both rely on transforming to be powerful!
They are imposing figures.
The design does such an impressive job as it emphasizes this in Hoskisson’s work!

Hoskisson gives a thought provoking idea. He’s offering a vision on how the Ghost Rider character could be updated. He also made his design special and even added some of Ghost Rider’s earlier, lesser-known, tech designs. This gave audiences a look into a unique vision. That really focuses on the idea of what the character may become as these artists put their creativity and skill to good use. It is a creative interpretation to make this project stand out.
