 Ian Watson - Re: On Mockingbird and Phantom Rider   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The important thing to bear in mind is that the Phantom Rider/Night Rider/Ghost Rider (all three names have been used for the character at different points) who appears in WCA isn't the same one who had all those stories told about him in Marvels' short-lived horror superhero western phase.
It's not too hard a stretch for me to believe that a man who has convinced himself that it is his destiny to follow in his brothers' footsteps as a pretend spook can also convince himself that a woman from the future is his destined and holy bride.
Unfortunately the whole Phantom Rider plot got swept away in one rather hurried fill-in issue to make way for John Byrne's tenure, presumably because the new regular writer didn't want to have to deal with a clutter of previous incumbents' plots.

Originally, Ghost Rider was a Western character, a lawman named Rex Fury who pretended to be a ghost with the help of glow-in-the-dark phosphorescence.

The other Rangers--Ghost Rider (Hamilton Slade, AKA Night Rider or Phantom Rider), Red Wolf, Shooting Star and Texas Twister--respond to her call but Firebird somehow senses that they are possessed, and her intuition is verified when the Rangers attack the WCA.
Note: The Phantom Rider seen in WCA is the third such adventurer, Lincoln Slade; he replaced his brother, Carter (the original Phantom Rider until his death) and Jamie Jacobs (a youth who briefly filled in as the Phantom Rider before dying as well).
The assembled heroes then crash the Phantom Rider's funeral in 1876, where Hawkeye is joyfully reunited with Mockingbird; she does not tell him the truth about the Phantom Rider's death, though, claiming instead that the madman committed suicide, since she fears that Hawkeye and the Avengers would turn against her if they knew the truth.

On the portions of her ride where the highway is paved, she always rides along the gravel shoulder, her long blond hair and her Confederate cape billowing out behind her.

However, almost immediately after the Phantom Rider left the village, he was struck down by an arrow from Towering Oak, who stole the Spirit Stone from him and donned it himself.
Fully healed at this point, the Phantom Rider could not hope to defeat Towering Oak, but the effort pushed him to exertion, which had the effect Flaming Star had intended: it drove his heart beyond its capacity to function, and he abruptly died of a heart attack.
In Ghost Rider I#6, Flaming Star was named as a Sioux, while in the OHotMU Deluxe#5: Ghost Rider, he was identified as a Commanche.

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Ghost Rider
The most blatant of these retreads was The Ghost Rider, swiped whole-hog from a 1950s western gunfighter of that name published by Magazine Enterprises.
Ayers (who had also drawn The Human Torch for Marvel and would later do Jonah Hex for DC Comics) reprised his 1950s role as penciller, with Vince Colletta (whose work was seen throughout the industry in subsequent years) doing the inks.
Or it may have been because of a lackluster appearance — Ayers had truly shone the first time around, but this time he was saddled with an inker who was rapidly becoming notorious for cutting corners and reducing art to a style-less blob.

 The Two Gun Kid #3, a Rootin Tootin Tale of .45 Caliber Justice
Matt Hawk, the Two-Gun Kid, had been riding with Jamie Jacobs, the Phantom Rider, for several weeks now, ever since she saved his bacon at Ten-Point Creek.
And she was, he admitted to himself, a handsome sight of a woman, in or out of her ghost-white Phantom Rider costume -- not that he'd seen her indecently, of course, but as flattering as the almost indecent Phantom Rider costume was, she looked just fine in skirts, too.
Matt tried awful hard not to think about such things, particularly as she seemed to have no such thoughts of her own -- and little, if any, awareness of the fact that they were a man and a woman travelling together on the frontier.
