"BENVENUTI A VENEZIA." Pack your bags! The Ghostbusters head to Venice, Italy, intending to investigate the haunted island of Poveglia, whose spirits are unusually agitated at this time... and on top of it all, Winston is beginning to get a bad feeling about the client that has sent the boys in gray to Europe.
Erik Burnham is a Minnesotan writer and artist that first broke into comics with a series of humorous short stories in the Shooting Star Comics Anthology. These stories featured his original creation, Nick Landime, and culminated in a one-shot: Nick Landime vs. the World Crime League, published by Shooting Star in 2005.
Off and on, in this same time period, Erik also produced a short run of an online strip, The Down Side, until technical issues wore him down. He aims to return to the strip one day.
In 2007, Erik found produced work for two other anthologies – a short humor piece for History Graphics Press’ Civil War Adventures #1, and a horror story for Gene Simmons’ House of Horror #3, produced by IDW Publishing.
This lead to several other projects for IDW, up to and including his critically acclaimed run on the ongoing GHOSTBUSTERS comic book.
Erik has worked on other projects not related to comic books, and hopes one day to share those with the public at large. In the meantime, he still lives quietly in Minnesota; any rumors about this being because he’s completely afraid of the forty-nine other states (and Canada) remain unverified at this time.
This issue was a definitely building up to something huge. Really enjoying the character development, and I feel it embodies the characters from the movies very well.
The City of New York comes to an agreement with Erland Vinter who wanted to buy the GB. They will be kind of rented to his company. Their first mission is to visit Venice though Egon has to stay back home because of injury. He visists the public library and a tome he is searching is missing... The good thing is it has the feel of the GB movies. Generaly a light read. Rating 5/10
The ghost busting boys have gone international! A great addition to the Ghostbusters stable with excellent graphics. I was given a digital copy of this book by the publisher Diamond Book Distributors via Netgalley in return for an honest unbiased review.
Good read, not really read much GB since the original film came out. Did see the odd episode of "Real Ghostbusters" even though I'm of a mature vintage. Nice to see it in comic form. Whether it'll have the legs to go the distance only time will tell. Recently saw the reboot, what a croc of shite that was, an hour and a half of my life I wont get back
