One Direction's Zayn Malik was the inspiration for the All-New Ghost Rider design.
Marvel Comics editor Mark Paniccia told The Sun (via Heatworld) that he pictured Robbie Reyes as a "beefier version" of Malik.
"Physically strong, with a quiet, troubled expression, kind of boyish," he added.
Paniccia briefed series creators Felipe Smith and Tradd Moore on his vision for the Malik likeness.
Malik is a self-proclaimed comic book fan, having recently visited Marvel Studios. He also sports a 'zap!' tattoo on his arm.
The character was portrayed by Nicolas Cage in two films.
All-New Ghost Rider #1 has been delayed until March 26 due to a printing/distribution issue.
