Still, the character was well-liked enough to show up a few more times, and became one of the most memorable faces from part 3. In previous interviews, Araki has indicated that he considered having Hol Horse join the heroes, but ultimately decided against it.

In his last appearance in Stardust Crusaders, Hol Horse is seen in a hospital, recovering from some accidentally self-inflicted bullet wounds. While Josuke would be a child in this timeframe, Hol Horse is already an adult man, and seemingly American to boot, making a meeting between the two a particularly bizarre prospect.

Hol Horse has a cowboy gimmick, and his Stand Emperor is a gun that can be summoned from nothing and influence the path of its bullets. Hol Horse first appeared in part 3, Stardust Crusaders, as a recurring villain and minion of Dio, but won fans over with his absurdity and managed to be one of the few villainous characters from that part to survive. The spinoff is said to be set prior to part 4, Diamond is Unbreakable, which stars Josuke as well and is set in 1999. This will be the first significant spinoff manga not written by series creator Hirohiko Araki, although it's not known how long it's expected to run at present. Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak will be written by Kohei Kadono, who previously wrote a light novel set in the Jojo universe following Golden Wind's Pannacotta Fugo, and illustrated by Tasuku Karasuma, creator of the recently concluded manga No Guns Life. The same issue will feature the aforementioned Stone Ocean one-shot, offering fans a double-dose of Jojo while they wait for part 9 to begin.
