Scott Lobdell (born 1960) is an American comic book writer.
He is mostly known for his work throughout the 1990s on Marvel Comics' X-Men-related titles specifically Uncanny X-Men, the main title itself, and the spin-off series that he conceived with artist Chris Bachalo, Generation X. Generation X focused on a number of young mutant students who attempted to become superheroes in their own right at a separate school with the guidance of veteran X-related characters Banshee and Emma Frost. He also had writing stints on Marvel's Fantastic Four, Alpha Flight, and The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix mini-series with artist Gene Ha. He wrote the script to Stan Lee's Mosaic and an upcoming film from POW Entertainment featuring Ringo Starr. He also participated in the Marvel Comics and Image Comics (from Jim Lee's WildStorm) crossover mini-series WildC.A.T.s/X-Men.
If you ever wanted Ghostbuster action set in different eras of human history, this is it. I was a bit skeptical of it, but I guess it started off all right. The artwork was pretty good and solo Venkman was enjoyable, being the rascally character that he is. It of course requires some suspension of disbelief on how he could still power his equipment. It's also a bit shorter than I expected and feeling a bit rushed, but doesn't really take away from enjoying it.
