Ghostbusters: Legion

by Steve Kurth Andrew Dabb, Steve Kurth

Kicked out of university for their unorthodox methods, scientists Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz and Egon Spengler decided to go into business for themselves. Together they formed a company specialising in paranormal investigations. Now, along with Winston Zeddemore, they protect New York from the supernatural - as the Ghostbusters! It's six months after the defeat of Gozer (seen at the end of the first Ghostbusters movie in 1984!) and the boys are back at work doing what they do best. But if things seem a little slow, a blast from their past will soon change all that...Featuring exclusive background features and a gallery, this brand new graphic novel packs more spine-chilling thrills and spills than you ever thought possible!

An ok tale, but it leans to hard into the 'oh by the way, here's a major character we never mentioned or hinted at before' trope.

[John · Rating 4 out of 5]

A good idea for potential direction of Ghostbusters 3. Much better than the IDW series.

[Donavon · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ignores the events of Ghostbusters 2 for some reason. Did not have the humor from the films that the IDW series captures. Artwork is nice, but rarely looks like actors.

After reading the new IDW series by Erik Burnham, this was such a disappointing read. The likenesses were hit and miss, and there was a struggle for the writer to capture the speech of the characters. As a massive fan of the ghostbusters the story also didn't feel like a believable ghostbusters story. The artwork was okay, but even for the time it was released seemed to be dated.
