Ghost Rider is famously known for riding around on a motorcycle with a skeletal head that’s on fire, but artist Andy MacDonald didn’t think the [Marvel Comics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-heroes) antihero should be limited only to just one vehicle, so he’s drawn the character riding anything from a snowmobile, [a skateboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skate-story), BMX bikes and even Star Wars hovercrafts. It may not make a ton of logical sense, but there’s no denying these wicked illustrations are ridiculously fun to look at.

Andy MacDonald is a Brooklyn-based comic book artist and one-third of the team responsible for the comic series ‘NYC Mech.’ He has a rugged, yet controlled illustrative style that harnesses negative space brilliantly to produce dynamic images of characters.
