That would suck. But... since it's technically Darius Dun -- that becomes a Turtles rights issue and like the TMNT or Ghostbusturtles -- not appearing?

Hmm, who have we seen so far... Gareth Dibello and Ellen Gold. A version of the Bone Dragon caught between stories. Wonder if they'll say how many ghosts total are on the loose.

If they do, I wonder if it will mention the IDW version of Roland who showed up at Winston's wedding. Granted, only Winston remembers the wedding since it got Quesadaed by Tiamat :-x , but still "Winston tells us that we have a Roland in our universe--he's a nephew of schoolteacher Tiyah Clarke" or somesuch would be a nice callback.

My thoughts on #3...
This Post Contains Spoilers
How I would end the story...

Tiamat destroys the dimensional door/equipment/knowledge, with the catch that when it happens, every Buster aside from the Prime Five (including Janine) get displaced and stuck into the dimension they last landed in. The ongoing issues could be individual team stories every month from the the Prime-verse, as well as each of the new jumbled teams.

Either I'm crazy, or I've just spoiled months of hard work...lol.

Erik says it's not. "Jim" was just meant as a funny contrast to the other names.

Yup. Jim is John's living brother -- something I'll never forget after my father and I met Jim in O'hare and I initially asked my old man if it was "John" standing in front of us instead. "No son... I'm pretty sure it can't be John."

I like Jim as a pithy yet utterly mainstream name.

As expected, my second favorite EGB :roland: (after Ky) and leader of the EGB's is today's VTC. ^_^

Kind of weird to see a mistake when Tom had an editorial assistant on the issue. Might repeat for a few issues. Ah well, they'll fix it in the trade hopefully.

EDIT: I notified Tom and they'll get it fixed for #5.
HauntedWallflower wrote: June 7th, 2018, 2:12 pm Roland it is, for VTC #32. Which means it's about time we stopped wondering which Buster is next cos the question we must ask is, "Which team's members are they going to post in order?"
I would have said that's a wrap on the EGB but two more characters could have their own cards.

EDIT: Erik confirms a small role for Rachel Unglighter.

The plot thickens. And as such, we should expect a solo VTC of Rachel, later. ^_^

Based on the preceding tweets in the link, it couldn't hurt since some more people might confuse her for Holtzmann.
HauntedWallflower wrote: June 7th, 2018, 6:56 pmSenta?
That was more like Tristan seeding a story he never got to, but I could imagine this bit of the Gbs explaining the Gozerian pantheon, and Dan sneaks in Senta in the panel.

EDIT: Dan posted the colored panel of Tiamat from #4 page 1.

^^^I love that Dan is incorporating the various vehicles on the covers, too.

In an interview recorded at North Carolina Comic Con back in March, Tom Waltz mentioned there are other properties IDW is actively talking with Ghost Corps about crossing over with the Ghostbusters and it's a matter of legalities.

And other wise, a fun convo between Nerdy Show, Tom, and Erik. Under 54 minutes.

Man I have to say this is the kind of stuff I love to hear when I celebrate Ghostbusters Day. First the IDW crew are stating that they are trying to secure some legal rights on some of their properties to have the Ghostbusters cross over with. So I am glad that there are still plans for the comic post Crossing Over. :). Love the fact that Ghost Corps is working so well with the IDW crew and feels like a real collaboration. :):):)

@ *referring to bold*

Indeed. Both companies have great synergy and do work well together.

VTC #33 is The Real Ghostbusters.

EDIT: Crossing Over #5 is off to the printers and Tom shared a page. Looks like Ellen Gold remade Wander Hills again. Holtz seems to confirm some of our theories about that past panel being a comic strip.

Tom also teased a special announcement about the virtual trading cards in the near future.

Huhn. I'm starting to think 50 total cards won't be enough, lol.

I think these 12 are a definite. But that leaves 4 unknowns.
  • Prime Ghostbusters
  • Ray
  • Winston
  • Kylie
  • New Ghostbusters
  • Peck
  • EGB Egon
  • SOS Ghostbusters
  • ATC Ghostbusters
  • Penguin-Hunters
  • Ghostbusters of 11-W
  • Ghostbusters of 35-N
Possibilities. The two Slimers have appeared. We know Louis will. And Unglighter. The rest are unknowns if they will appear in the main story proper.
  • Ghostbusters 101
  • Louis Tully
  • Rachel Unglighter
  • RGB Slimer
  • EGB Slimer
  • Dana Barrett
  • Prime Eduardo
  • Kim (Chicago GB's secretary)
  • EGB Janine
  • Geoff
  • RGB Janine

^^^I think it's just Ellen Gold. It's like the ghost echo in GB2 saying Winston's name. Some low level ESP let's them get in people's heads.

Over on Ghostheads United, Erik shared an interesting reveal
"But the next story(ies) we do will likely not have a dimension-travel component. (Tom and I were talking the other night, and worked up what I think is a great idea.) "
