So..........The New Ghostbusters Reboot is out in theaters and I'm pretty sure a lot of you aren't going to go and see it. That's fine, who am I to judge? But me personally, I thought it was "okay". Not good but not terrible.
But I feel like you guys who refuse to see the movie should get a good dose of the old school team so here's a storytime of an interesting Ghostbusters Comic from the IDW team.
We all know how the ending of the original film went down. But...What If The Ghostbusters didn't cross the streams and save the city? All the answers will be revealed here.

And that's it.
For those of you who actually watched this thread, I hope you enjoyed.
Well that was fun.
And you're right, I will never ever see the new movie. I learned my lesson about mediocre sequels after Star Wars 7
>>84538823
His poops.
Thank you OP
Can someone storytime the five Deviations issues?
>>84540784
I would but sadly, this was the only one I could find.
So with that said, I second this.
I want a Stay Puft plush now

Why is Egon always blond in Comics/Cartoons?
>>84540865
You want download links?
>>84540901
Because for this comic I could never tell Ray and Peter apart, except when they say the names. Having Egon be another white man with black hair would make it even more confusing.
>>84540784
The only other good one was the GI Joe one, which was hilarious.
The X Files one was mediocre as fuck, and the Transformers one was god-awful. Read the wiki page, it's more entertaining than the issue was. http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers:_Deviations
..Though thinking about it, I didn't read the Turtles one. Maybe that was okay?

It was dark and pessimistic. I loved it because they embrace the concept of "what if?" to the core.

I hope it becomes a thing one day. His film pitch made me cry, and it's only a rough outline. Guy has worked on comics before so doesn't seem impossible.

Kinda says a lot about Joe that there wasn't a single moment "iconic" enough for them to use as a deviation point, huh?

And thus concludes Cobra Commander In "Victory Is Boring". If anyone's particularly interested, I'll post the bonus progress notes etc, but otherwise won't bother.

Thanks for clarifying that, I felt it wasn't on the nose enough of a reference.

dew it, i actually really liked this one, specifically the art. so if its more of that, it would be appreciated
>>84542049
>>84542244
>>84542256
I have to say, I really like that Commander design. I'm normally a helmet guy, but the weird half-and-half look with the eyeholes is great.
>>84542284
>>84542294
>>84542284
i didn't like it in the 5 year timeskip, but i like how similar it looked to his maskless face at the end
>>84542310
Anyone know if Corey Lewis has done anything else? I'm liking his work.
>>84542328
>>84542310
So we should read each volume in the right order. Thanks for the tip.

Well, I suppose it helps to clarify that the two series are unrelated.
>>84541689
>Landis
no.
>>84542328
apparently he hasn't done alot at all
he did two oni press comics iv literally never heard of, one being a one shot (Sharknife and PENG) and backups for darkstalkers/street fighter comics
obviously wikipedia is going to be less updated than his actual site or tumblr, but the last thing listed other than this, is from 2011
>>84542328

>>84540901
The weird thing is he's not blonde in any of IDW's other Ghostbusters books, they all just look like exaggerated caricatures of the actors.
>>84542430
Don't be that guy. We already know you exist, you don't have to voice it every time his name comes up.
>>84542475
>>84540901
they actually refrence his comic change in several issues, theres also "two egons" in the universe, one being more like the movie version and one being the comic version.
Janine dated "not egon" to make egon jealous
>>84542489
you know theres more than one person who cant stand landis right?
how dare i voice my opinion on a siamese scroll site
>>84542715
>you know theres more than one person who cant stand landis right?
I do, I was speaking to the group.
>>84542508
"not egon" isn't actually Egon though, he's an english teacher or something like that named Roger. It's just a gag that he looks exactly like animated Egon (specifically the XGB version with the ponytail) BECAUSE Janine is dating him, the joke is "she's so hung up on Egon who's too nerdy to acknowledge her that she's now dating vague-lookalikes"
>>84542750
yeah well I like ghostbusters and dont want h writing for it.

>Ugh, I'm grossed out that they had a ghost sex gag in the original.
>I sure hope they don't reference blowjobs in the new movie, since it's got women and should be classier than that.
>Paul Feig's first big movie, Bridesmaids, involved Melissa McCarthy using "bear sandwich" as code for raunchy sex

Dammit anon. Why you gotta remind me?
>>84541731
i actually rather like this costume for cobra commander, make sense with the extra eye look when he went full mutant snake man
>>84541898
>>84541885
so no explanation for blood losing his eye patch? at first i was like, ok maybe they are sneaking more zartan in, but nope
>>84541689
The weird thing about Landis is his scripts are either butchered or just not good but his comics are fucking great
>>84541689
mind linking to it?
