When he teamed up with other characters, at least in my (at the time) one ROM comic collection, it was with relative unknowns like Ursa Major. Continue reading

Ghostbusters is a property that, for fans, is sacred. There are few people outside of the original writers and director that fans trust with their favorite characters. (Exhibit A - I’ll call it the “Ghostbuster Reboot Storm of Hate”) I’m all for reboots, reimagining, and sequels, as long as their well done and stay true to the essence of the characters and the main gist of the original story.
