Ghost Rider film
Arthur Dolan is assigned with the strange case of a man found burnt by the inside by a strangely high amount of brimstone in his body. On the crime scene, Dolan is approached by journalist Roxanne Simpson, but he sends her away with a few words.

Later on the case, Dolan meets Ghost Rider, and believes him to be the responsible on the homicide he's investigating on. After a long chase, the Ghost Rider shake the cops off by riding his motorcycle through a river, making impossible for Dolan and his men to follow him. Following the flaming traces of the Hellcycle, anyway, Dolan arrives to Blaze's house, and has him arrested and interrogated. While the stuntman is in the central's prison, anyway, night comes, and the Ghost Rider curse is on him once again: with Zarathos' powers, Blaze breaks free and leaves the jail, with Dolan incapable of explaining the events to himself or to his superiors.
