And the Chicago faction will be popping up here and there. They're really good foils for the other, and Tom loves them as a duo.

I may have simply looked over it in everyone else's posts.Cool find, and I just watched that movie on AMC the other night. Don't worry about posting a find, I promise I won't and never have chewed anyone out for sharing their discoveries. I'm fairly sure that is a new easter egg because this might be the first time the R&D lab from GB2 was used in the ongoing. It was used back in the What in Samhain Just Happened?! one shot. For the most part, a big chunk of Firehouse scenes have always been Janine's desk, Peter's office or the 2nd floor main lab. They briefly had a panel or two in the basement, sleeping quarters, and on the roof. But yeah, I think this was the first scene in the R&D room on the ongoing series.This Post Contains Spoilers

A background or one-panel joke is one thing, it being displayed on something permanently is another.

I have a radical idea...since there is now a spare Ghostbuster in Kylie (and possibly Ortiz, if she comes back), I think a cool way to sneak in the Ghostbusters 2 logo is to have the back-up Ghostbusters sport the G2 logo on their jumpsuits. The originals would keep the classic logo, kind of like a ranking distinction. Just a thought.
