If I were to do Ghost Rider, it wouldn't be far off from Percy's approach in a way. Lean heavily into overlapping themes of biker culture, open road urban legends, weird shit happening in the empty places of the world. Johnny Blaze, perpetually on the move across the highways and byways of America. Running into ghosts, monsters, predators--protecting the innocent, punishing the guilty, and never at peace with himself.
Haunted roadside attractions. Abandoned theme parks. Decrepit carnivals. Performing at county and state fairs. I'd make the Highwayman from U.S.1 a recurring villain. Have him encounter a much less ridiculous take on Razorback. Introduce a spinoff of the Circus of Crime that's much scarier, much less familiar.
Think wild, think unsettling. Think speed and the open road and the sound of the motorcycle in the dead of night with no one for miles around except things that should not be named. You know it's bad when the least scary people you meet are the one percenter motorcycle clubs...
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

Fuck, if I wrote horror, I'd be all over this.
