I'm waiting for mine to arrive. Got it online. The best I can do. Sucks not living near a comic shop.

Can't wait for next month's issue (or May's if Diamond pushes it back AGAIN). My ONE complaint is this... these comics are NEVER long enough... how do we get these to be... I dunno... 5 times bigger?That's why I collect the trade paperbacks. You get a huge chunk of a story, or one whole mini-series at once.

This has been a great March for me, fandom-wise.On second thought, at least they compromise every so often and give a few extra pages like Vol. 2 #20 and also we got the annuals on seems like once a year give or take.
Will the “Answer the Call” Ghostbusters ever notice that these guys they're teamed with really look a lot like people they encountered during their big-screen adventure?
Schoening: Indeed they will!
Burnham: HA! I just wrote that scene this week! In all honesty, I thought about bypassing it just because it’s been so heavily anticipated that I’d be competing with thousands of different reactions to that very idea, but no one (not my editor and not Ghost Corps) was going to let me off this particular hook. And I’m glad they didn’t -- it provided a couple of my favorite lines of the issue! http://comicbook.com/2017/03/22/burnham ... e-ghostbu/
OK, forgive me for being a comic noob, but what is Peck's history, why is working for a paranormal group now? I did love that reversal of him being annoyed at the EPA, lol.It started with the Video Game having Peck become head of PCOC, as a sort of city government "overseer" of the Ghostbusters. He's been a supporting character as a sort of pseudo "asshole boss" all through the Burnham/Schoening runs.

I could easily hear all their voices, which is awesome. And this will sound weird but I love Erin's hair, lol. I don't know, I can just identify with Erin the most, most of the fellow women I know remind me of her. And it's just cool to see someone like that being a Ghostbuster.@ *referring to bold*
Lee FW wrote:So just a quick question, it mentions Peter has seen his team win twice in an alternate NYC, I've read very little of the IDW series recently (last comic I managed to read were the first 2 issues of Get Real) but does this mean they've been actively exploring/exploiting + keeping tabs on the alternate dimensions?Between story arcs, I would guess between Ghostbusters International #11 and 101 #1 (which skips from May to Fall more or less I think). I doubt they would have done any exploration during the Firehouse rebuilding phase post-Get Real

101 Issue #2 release date moved a week to May 3. Usual semantics have begun.

Might have been one of my interviews. Like Tiamat in Volume 2 or Ananke and Proteus in Get Real. I think the Cerberus manifestation was an exception because Proteus created it solely to track across dimensions. Gozer can but as expanded on in Volume 2, it's rigid and follows the protocol of its ritual -- Zuul and Vinz takes hosts, copulate, open the doorway.This Post Contains Spoilers
User 1: Yea but they're getting shoehorned into the comics now anyway and the new animated movie has to be a "crossover" thanks to that horrible, cynical reboot. I hope a giant ghost shoehorn sucks up the "Answer the Call" team and just plops them down in the OG universe like "here, learn to catch ghosts. You caught one in your movie and let him out so he could kill Peter Venkman. C****." (Note: I censored that last word. User #1 didn't.)So yeah, basically they're starting to notice that all the time they spent complaining about the reboot was time they were NOT using to talk about the movies they did like. And I saw this happening months ago, the sub wasn't just anti-reboot, they had become anti-Ghostbusters, period. Anyone from the original movies who supported the reboot was a "traitor" and any fan was a "shill who wanted free shit."
I was hoping this sub would be more active after the reboot and the news of Ivan Reitman returning to the creative helm. If the OG fanbase is louder right now, it makes no financial sense to appease the feminist shills that probably never saw the movie int he first place. But the front page has posts over a month old and if you rail against the crossovers and shit no one cares. So, enjoy an eternity of shitty, "Answer the Call" crossovers.
User 2: ATC killed interest in the franchise in general. People here don't trust what will happen next, so we aren't going to rally support around Reitman. The only groups still active are the forums that traded support for free shit from Sony.
User 3: Certainly not "in general". The Void [VR experience] opened in Utah and it's selling out.
